Before you purchase

Clear answers. No marketplace theater.

Do I need to post a job or buy Connects?+

No. These are ready-to-buy Project Catalog offers. You can open Joshua's Upwork profile, choose a project, compare the tiers, or message him before purchasing.

Does the Starter tier include a complete production app?+

Not for SaaS or mobile. Those Starter tiers cover product definition, architecture, and a focused interactive prototype. The Standard and Advanced tiers cover bounded production releases.

Can Michai work with a remote team?+

Yes. Michai Media is based in St. Louis and the delivery process is designed for remote clients across the United States.

Is the price fixed?+

The price is fixed for the written tier scope. New workflows, integrations, roles, or release requirements are handled as a separately approved milestone or add-on.

Who will actually do the work?+

Joshua Black leads the engagement directly. The offer is presented through Michai Media and purchased through Joshua's individual Upwork profile.

No proposal required
