About this calculator
A fixed-bid freelance quote is built from estimated hours × hourly rate, then padded with a buffer percentage that absorbs the scope creep and revision rounds almost every project accumulates once a client starts reviewing drafts. Skipping the buffer is one of the most common reasons freelancers end up working for less than their stated rate.
Independent developers, designers, and consultants use this kind of quote when a client wants a single all-in number rather than hourly billing, sizing the buffer — commonly 10-25% — to how well-defined the brief is: a vague brief warrants a bigger cushion than a tightly scoped one.
