Complexity indicator
Needs discovery
The category is not settled yet, so scope cannot be judged until the problem is discussed.
Total: 0 points.
How this is calculated
Points are added for the project type, each module, each integration, user roles, migration, reporting and support. The total maps to a level: Light up to 14, Moderate up to 29, Substantial up to 44, and above that Needs discovery. An unsettled category, no modules, or a large migration with three or more integrations also gives Needs discovery.
| Item | Points |
|---|---|
| User roles: 1 | 0 |
| Data migration: None, we start fresh | 0 |
| Reporting: No reports needed at first | 0 |
| Support: Hand over after launch | 0 |
Role tiers: 1 role = 0, 2 to 3 roles = 2, 4 to 6 roles = 4, 7 or more roles = 7.
The weights are our rough rule of thumb for how much each choice adds uncertainty and work. They are not measured hours.

Complexity indicator
- Needs discovery. The category is not settled yet, so scope cannot be judged until the problem is discussed.
Open questions for discovery
- Which steps of the current process are the biggest daily pain?
- Which third-party accounts, plans and API access already exist?
- Who approves decisions, and who will use the system every day?
Important
- This is a complexity indicator and a starting brief, not a quotation. A quotation needs technical discovery: reviewing your actual process, data and the third-party services involved. Third-party costs (gateway fees, message fees, hosting, subscriptions) are separate and set by those providers.
How to read the result
- The level (Light, Moderate, Substantial or Needs discovery) comes from a points model you can open and inspect.
- Needs discovery means too many unknowns to judge from a form, not that the project is impossible.
- The brief is written to be pasted into an email, a document or a conversation with any developer.
Limits to keep in mind
- A complexity indicator is not a quotation, and the weights are rules of thumb rather than measured effort.
- A real quotation needs technical discovery of your process, data and third-party services.
- Third-party costs such as gateway fees, message fees, hosting and subscriptions are separate.
