Client Paths
Choose the kind of engagement.
You need a web app
You need more than pages. You need the frontend, backend dashboard, database, authentication, roles, payments, email, automation, APIs, reporting, admin tools, and deployment working as one product. A typical build is around $20K.
You need research
You have an expensive product or technical decision and need primary-source research, feasibility testing, comparisons, a proof of concept, and a written recommendation before choosing what to build.
You need an indie game
You have a drawing, story, game-design document, educational concept, branded idea, or rough browser prototype and need a focused playable build starting at $5,500.
You have book or story IP
You control a published fictional world and want to commission a playable adaptation or submit qualifying RPG-forward IP for a potential game-rights option.
Best Client Profile
A real website, web application, or research decision.
CodexDeus is best for a founder or operator with a real business, real urgency, and a website or web application that needs to produce a business outcome.
The strongest web-app fit needs full-stack execution: frontend, backend dashboard, users, roles, database, payments, email, admin, automation, reporting, deployment, and practical launch judgment.
