FAQ

Everything you need to know before starting a project.

Services

What services do you offer?

Devbrek offers custom website and landing page development, web application development (authentication, dashboards, databases), AI integration (chatbots, agents, streaming), third-party API integration, and website redesign and modernization.

Do you work with clients outside France?

Yes. All projects are handled remotely. I work in both French and English, so international clients are welcome.

Can you work on an existing project?

Yes, and it's a significant part of what I do: redesigns, new features, code improvements. On a JavaScript or TypeScript stack — React, Next.js, Node — I work on it directly. On a different technology, I start with a short paid audit: I get access to the repository, run it locally, identify the risky areas, and hand you an informed estimate. You only commit to a project quote once I know what I'm dealing with.

Process

How does a typical project work?

Every project follows the same structure: an initial brief to understand your needs, a detailed quote defining scope and deliverables, a 30% deposit upon signing, an additional 20% upon approval of the mockup, then the remaining 50% balance upon final delivery. Where the contract is concluded off-premises with a consumer client, no payment is required before a 7-day period has elapsed.

How long does a project take?

It depends on the scope. A landing page typically takes 5 to 8 days. A custom web application ranges from 10 to 20 days. AI integration projects usually take 6 to 10 days. Timelines are always defined in the quote before work begins.

How many revisions are included?

Each quote specifies the number of included revisions. Beyond that, additional requests are billed at the standard daily rate. Everything is transparent and agreed before the project starts.

Pricing

How much does it cost?

The standard daily rate is 275€/day. Each project is quoted individually based on the defined scope. No hidden fees — the price in the signed quote is the final price, unless the scope changes.

Do you charge VAT?

No. As a micro-entrepreneur, Devbrek is exempt from VAT under article 293 B of the French General Tax Code. The price you see is the price you pay.

What payment methods do you accept?

Bank transfer (virement bancaire). The standard schedule is: 30% upon signing the quote, 20% upon approval of the mockup, 50% upon delivery. Where the contract is concluded off-premises with a consumer client, no payment is required before a 7-day period has elapsed (see the Terms & Conditions).

AI & Emile

What is Emile?

Emile is the AI assistant built into this portfolio. It can answer any question about Devbrek's services, availability, projects, and how to get in touch. It's powered by LangChain and Mistral AI.

Do you build AI features for clients?

Yes — AI integration is a core speciality. Whether it's a customer-facing chatbot, an internal automation agent, or a streaming assistant integrated into your product, Devbrek can design and build it using LangChain and Mistral AI.

After Delivery

Are you available after delivery?

Yes. Maintenance, updates, and support are available after project delivery. This can be agreed upon as part of the initial quote or added as a separate arrangement.

Who owns the code after delivery?

It depends on the rights assigned. Upon receipt of full payment, Devbrek assigns to you the economic rights over the deliverable (reproduction, communication, modification, etc.). Devbrek's pre-existing code and open source components remain subject to their own licenses, detailed in the Terms & Conditions (Intellectual Property article). Devbrek retains the right to mention the project in its portfolio unless otherwise agreed in writing.
