A subscription from 12,800 ₸or custom website developmentfrom 1,500,000 ₸
Custom website development and a subscription to a ready-made site are two of our own products, and the choice runs only between them. The subscription, from 12,800 ₸ a month, covers service sites, price lists and branch networks end to end: a first version live in five minutes, copy and prices edited by the owner. Development, from 1,500,000 ₸, comes in where you need your own calculations, an exchange with an accounting system or a customer account — and more often alongside the subscription than instead of it.

What people arrive with
Four jobs we cover with custom development
The subscription runs the shopfront: pages, services, a price list, enquiries, three languages. When your own mechanics have to sit on top of it, we write them — as a separate service from 1,500,000 ₸, with the same team and on the same stack.
Logic an ordinary website does not have
Your own pricing formulas, multi-step approvals, roles with different rights inside a single account, an order state that follows your rules. That is your trade's mechanics: we build it around you, while the public pages stay on the subscription.
Exchange with an accounting system
1C, warehouse stock, a till, a clinic system, an industry ERP: stock, prices, statuses and documents have to move both ways and on a schedule. We build that exchange against your configuration, and it usually comes together with an online shop — from 5,000,000 ₸.
A catalogue people filter by parameters
Selection across a dozen interdependent attributes, compatibility rules, a configurator, different prices for different customer segments. We build the configurator on top of your catalogue, and you keep running the product cards and the content yourself.
Particular demands on data and hosting
Your own environment, rules about where personal data may live, an external audit, a link into corporate infrastructure. A custom build is deployed where you need it and updated on your schedule — a portal with a customer account and integrations starts at 8,000,000 ₸.
What the subscription covers, and what a custom build covers
Both columns are ours. On the left, what you get today for 12,800 ₸ a month; on the right, what we build from 1,500,000 ₸. Tick your own rows: your route is wherever more of them land.
| Subscription site | Custom build | |
|---|---|---|
| What it costs | from 12,800 ₸ a month | from 1,500,000 ₸ per project |
| A first version you can actually show someone | Five minutes | Weeks |
| The address the site opens on | A working address the moment you sign up | Your own domain and hosting for the project |
| The owner edits copy, prices and sections | An admin panel designed around your process | |
| Enquiries land on a kanban board out of the box | Built around your process | |
| Three site languages, each with its own content | ||
| Updates, backups and security are not your problem | Under a separate support contract | |
| Cost known upfront, unaffected by how much you edit | Quoted and fixed against the list of jobs | |
| An AI assistant editing content in the admin panel | Module, 9,900 ₸ a month | Built into the project |
| Sitemap, canonical, robots and the analytics tab | SEO Advanced module, 4,900 ₸ a month | Built into the project |
| Non-standard business logic and your own flows | A job for the build | |
| Two-way exchange with 1C, stock and tills | A job for the build | |
| Parametric selection and a configurator in the catalogue | Catalogue and configurator are a job for the build | |
| A customer account with documents and history | A job for the build | |
| Hosting in your own environment, specific data rules | A job for the build | |
| The project's source code and control of the stack | The platform, its updates and support are included in the subscription |
Plenty of clients take both: the shopfront lives on the platform and is edited with a mouse, while the hard part is written separately. If most of your matches are in the lower half, start with the trial — in three days it turns into the spec the quote is built from.

What this looks like on requests we actually get
The same three words, “we need a website”, mean very different things. Here are four of the briefs that reach us, with the route and the price for each.
What the subscription includes — and what we deliver as a build
The lists are short and they do not overlap: on the left, what works from the first minutes for 12,800 ₸ a month; on the right, what we write for you as a separate project from 1,500,000 ₸.
Included in the subscription
Working from the first minutes — from 12,800 ₸ a month; modules (AI assistant included in the subscription, SEO Advanced 4,900 ₸, blog 1,900 ₸ a month) are added separately
- A ready site for your trade — 26 of them, with content already in place
- An editor with 35 kinds of section for pages the ready site lacks
- Three site languages, each with its own content
- Enquiries on a kanban board: the card names the page they came from
- Hosting, updates and a working address the moment you sign up
Delivered as a custom build
A separate project from 1,500,000 ₸ — same team, same stack
- Two-way exchange with 1C, stock systems, tills or clinic software
- Your own business logic: calculations, approvals, roles, order states
- A customer account with documents and history
- Parametric selection and a configurator in the catalogue
- Hosting inside your environment and infrastructure changes for an audit
- The project's source code, and the rights to it, handed over to you
A shopfront is cheaper at 12,800 ₸ a month, and a build is worth commissioning for exactly the part a shopfront does not have.
Both products are ours, so the route is chosen by the job rather than by the price list. If your brief contains an exchange with 1C, your own roles and calculations, or a customer account, we quote the build from the list of jobs, from 1,500,000 ₸. If it contains none of that, three days of trial with no card show you a finished site faster and cheaper than any estimate.
Four steps, so nobody has to guess
Every step ends in a document: a list of requirements, a working site in the trial, a list of jobs and a quote. What is left outside the shopfront only becomes visible once you have tried the platform.
You describe the job in plain words, not a spec
What you sell, who makes the edits, where stock and prices live today, who handles enquiries and how. A written spec hurts at this stage: it fixes a solution before the problem is understood.
A list of requirements in human language
We build the site on the platform during the trial
We take the ready site for your trade and fill it with your own material. That is faster and cheaper than arguing about capabilities over a slide deck.
A working site on a technical address
We write down what is left outside the shopfront
Not “it felt limited” but concrete items: this field, this exchange, this flow. The list usually comes out shorter than expected — and it is exactly what becomes the build's spec.
A list of jobs instead of an impression
We cost the build from exactly that list
Empty list — you stay on the subscription at 12,800 ₸ a month and pay nothing for development. Not empty — we cost it item by item from the matching tier: a landing from 1,500,000 ₸, a corporate site from 3,000,000 ₸, an online shop from 5,000,000 ₸, a portal with an account and integrations from 8,000,000 ₸. It often ends up hybrid: shopfront on the platform, the hard part built separately.
An itemised quote, not one line reading “a website”
How the two routes live on — and what a build is costed from
The difference is not felt at launch but six months later: when a price changes, a branch opens or a dependency needs updating. The third block is the ladder a custom-build quote starts from.
Subscription — from 12,800 ₸ a month
Custom build — from 1,500,000 ₸
Where a build quote starts
What people ask when choosing between the two routes
Including the money question, with concrete figures for both routes.
Describe the job and we will tell you which route it is
We do not start with a pitch: first the list of jobs, then three days of trial, and then the figures in hand — a subscription from 12,800 ₸ a month or a build quote from 1,500,000 ₸.
- A your-name.shardit.app address is issued immediately, before any decision
- A 3-day trial, no card, no automatic charges
- If the job is bigger than a shopfront, we cost the custom build item by item
