All figures use ₹1,000/hr flat rate. Both devs work in parallel — Flutter dev handles apps, Node.js dev handles backend.
AI tools cost covered by devs' company — not included in this budget. Client pays only dev hours + base app.
Client pays separately (not in this budget): Google Maps API, Razorpay fees, MSG91 SMS credits, cloud hosting, Apple/Play Store accounts.

Both devs together for final sync, testing, and production deployment.
| Task | Hours Range | Who | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day 1 — GraphQL API contract agreement | 3–4 hrs | Both | Define all new mutations/queries before parallel work starts |

Shared/QA subtotal: 28–41 hrs · Midpoint ~34 hrs · Cost range: ₹28,000 – ₹41,000
Both devs work in parallel from Week 1. Only 2 sync points: Day 1 (API contracts) and Week 5 (integration).
Assumption: 6–7 productive hours/day per dev. 5-day work week. 2 devs in parallel = ~12–14 combined hours/day.
Both devs study Ridy codebase together (Day 1–2). Define all new GraphQL mutations/queries on Day 1. Flutter dev sets up dev environment, builds, runs apps. Node.js dev: verify Razorpay + MSG91 in existing gateways, remove license validator, set up Docker local dev, study NestJS microservice structure.
Flutter: Onboarding, home/map screen, ride type selector Figma skin. Node: Fare engine extension (27 params), Trip OTP generate/verify API, dynamic UPI QR generation API, airport fixed-fare backend.
Flutter: Live trip screen, trip history/receipt, wallet/payment screens, UPI QR display, GST invoice download button, multiple stops UI, tip screen, payment retry banner. Node: Outstation pricing logic, multiple stops API, tip backend, payment retry/debt flag, save payment methods (Razorpay tokenisation).
Flutter: All driver app Figma screens, OTP verify input, cash tracker UI, document expiry banners, SOS button, auto-offline logic, outstation driver UI, profile edit lock. Node: Dispatcher Panel APIs, GST invoice PDF generator, document expiry scheduler, cash tracker API, SOS alert backend, support chat backend.
Flutter: App Store + Play Store builds preparation. Node: Dispatcher Panel UI (React), support chat console, GST reports page, driver ledger, customer dues, referral codes, admin 2FA. Data migration scripts from SaaS export. Both devs: integration testing together.
Staging deploy on client's VPS, client UAT testing, bug fixes from UAT feedback. Production deploy with SSL + domain config. Play Store + App Store submission. Final handover documentation.
Note on migration complexity: Timeline assumes the existing SaaS platform exports clean CSV/JSON. If export is messy or requires manual cleanup, migration can add 3–5 days. Plan for this buffer.
