estimate

Generate a bottom-up cost estimate by reading project requirements and architecture context, then calculating effort breakdowns and infrastructure costs. The process outputs a versioned estimate file with LOE details to inform SOW pricing and budgeting decisions.

Calculate SOW pricing by applying bottom-up, T-shirt, or three-point sizing to your architecture requirements. This produces team composition plans and infrastructure cost models, enabling risk-informed budgeting and stakeholder alignment for enterprise engagements.

Yes, you can use three-point sizing for PoC proposal budgeting. The estimation process supports three-point sizing alongside bottom-up and T-shirt sizing, with optional depth controls to scale the calculation accuracy for PoC or enterprise contexts.

Yes, a requirements.json file is a required prerequisite. The estimation process reads context from knowledge_base prerequisites including requirements.json and architecture.json, while optionally using data_model.json, security_review.json, and integration_plan.json.

When estimating LOE and infrastructure costs, you get versioned results written to knowledge_base/estimate.json and knowledge_base/engagement.json. These outputs capture cost models, effort breakdowns, and team composition for budgeting and SOW pricing.
