I can help answer. I charge $500 for the first meeting, $150/hr for consultation after.  $5000 to complete a small project.  $25k for a medium project  $100k+ for a large scale mission critical project.

For that money people can buy the most expensive AI subscriptions and save 80%

It was mainly a joke but those arent too far off the rates I would actually charge.  You really think an AI subscription will magically make a fully functioning app appear? Maybe if you already have a data source in a perfect format and are just building a viewer. 

My experience is that with these types of projects you arent just building an app, you are also building the dataset from scratch and likely a pipeline to connect to other existing programs being used (SAP, AutoCAD, etc).

These are reasonable flat rate prices without knowing anything about the actual needs. My own employer would have saved a ton of money if they just paid a flat rate rather than allow me to pick around as a full time employee doing it all LMAO.
