Three.js developer rates 2026 climb by tier: solo freelancers sit at the bottom of the band, mid-tier agencies above that, and premium US/UK studios at the top. We work at a fixed price agreed upfront in a written offer, with no hourly billing — better for both sides, since you know what you're paying and we know what to deliver before we start. If the scope is still loose, we narrow it down in writing, by e-mail, before the offer goes out. A fixed price gives you budget certainty before any work starts.
Payment terms
Scope and terms are fixed in a written offer before any payment — you know exactly what's in scope and when it ships. Communication stays in writing, and the full source is handed over at delivery.

Frequently asked questions
What if my budget is limited?
There is a smaller option: hero scene only on an existing site, single device-tier (desktop), simpler asset pipeline. Below that, off-the-shelf templates from Spline or similar are usually a better fit than custom development.
Are there hidden costs I should know about?
No hidden fees. The written offer lists everything the work covers: design, development, assets, og images, schema markup and sitemap, plus hosting and maintenance if you want them. Stock photography or specialist 3D modeling, if needed, is quoted separately before work starts.
How long does this take?
It depends on scope. A simple site usually takes 1–2 weeks, larger projects take longer, and the exact timeline is in the written offer.
What does it cost?
Every project is quoted per scope — scene count, asset complexity and interactivity drive the effort. Send a short brief and you get a written fixed quote, with source code included.
What if my visitors are on weak phones?
The site detects device tier before the first scene loads and serves a lighter version on weak hardware (fewer particles, simpler shaders). Devices without WebGL get a static fallback that preserves the visual language and conversion path.
