How to price AI-assisted freelance work
Price the result, never the AI time. Clients understand "$40.00 for a small edit"; they don't understand tokens. konnektsi quotes flat prices per deliverable from your own list, so a client sees the exact price before they accept.
A starting price list
konnektsi's defaults are small edit $40.00, bug fix $75.00, new section $150.00, landing page $400.00, short video $120.00, 3 thumbnails $60.00, small task (any other work) $40.00, task (any other work) $120.00. Change any of them on your dashboard.
Extras
The deep tier, more careful and checked twice, adds $50.00 by default, and a rush adds 50%. One change after the preview is included and each extra change is $25.00. A rush raises the price but doesn't shorten the deadline by itself.
Kill fees
A quote can set a kill fee, at most half the price, that the client owes only if they reject the preview. It can be $0.
Know your costs
Your costs are the membership ($19 a month, starting with your first client payment for approved work), Stripe's normal processing fees on each client payment (such as 2.9% + 30¢ per US card payment), and your own AI usage on your Anthropic API key. Each automatic run has a spend cap: $3 for quoting, and about half the job's price for the work run, at least $5 and at most $100.
Quotes close
A quote stays open for 7 days, with one reminder after about 2 days. Nothing is charged when the client accepts: their card is saved.
