Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is the AI project cost estimator?

The estimator uses average hourly rates across 10 global regions and 100+ skills combined with complexity factors. While it provides a reliable budget range, actual freelancer quotes may vary based on exact requirements.

How does it adjust for freelancer locations?

It applies Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) indices and regional cost-of-living multipliers to calculate local vs. international rate differences, helping you choose the best hiring strategy.

Can I turn my estimate into a platform project brief?

Yes, after completing the estimation, you can save your results and click "Post this project on MegiLance" to automatically pre-fill your client project listing.
