Freelancer, agency, or fixed price?

There are three usual ways to get Moodle work done. They differ less in skill than in who carries the risk when the job takes longer than planned.

Hourly freelancerAgencyDevLMS
What you know before you start An hourly rate and an estimate A proposal, after calls A fixed price and a written scope
If it takes longer You pay for the extra hours A change request Same price for the scope in your quote
Tests and Moodle checks Depends on the person Often cut to fit the budget moodle-plugin-ci, PHPUnit and Behat on every plugin
Who owns the code Usually you, check the contract Usually you, check the contract You, under the GPL, with the full repository
After handover If they still answer A support contract 30 days of bug fixes, then an optional care plan

What can you hire us for?

Anything that lives inside Moodle or connects to it. Schools, universities and training companies hire us directly. Agencies and Moodle Partners send us plugin work for their own clients.

  • A new plugin. Activity modules, blocks, reports, enrolment methods, payment gateways, question types, SSO, AI features. The full list is on the home page.
  • Finishing someone else's code. A plugin a freelancer left half done, or one you started with ChatGPT, Claude or Lovable. We read it, keep what works, and quote the rest.
  • Upgrading old plugins. Custom plugins that stop you moving to Moodle 4.5 or 5.x. We bring them up to current APIs and add the tests they never had. Background: what breaks when you upgrade.
  • Integrations. Moodle talking to your SIS, CRM, HR system, payment provider, video or exam platform.
  • Keeping it working. The care plan: Moodle and PHP upgrades, bug fixes and small changes for $149 a month.

Questions before you hire

Anything else, email contact@devlms.com or ask the scoping assistant.

Can I hire a Moodle developer by the hour?

No. We quote a fixed price for a written scope, so you know the total before you pay and the hours it takes are our concern, not yours. For ongoing small changes, the care plan at $149 a month includes up to 4 hours of work.

How much does a custom Moodle plugin cost?

With DevLMS, small plugins (blocks, filters, local tweaks, editor buttons) start at $149 and take 2 to 3 days. Standard plugins with their own data, permissions and pages (reports, enrolment methods, payment gateways, question types, activity modules) start at $300 and usually ship in under two weeks. Systems of several plugins or outside integrations start at $1,500 and are planned in milestones. The price depends on what the plugin does, how many people rely on it and who it's for. Every quote is a fixed price for a written scope, with three options to choose from.

How long does it take to build a Moodle plugin?

Small plugins take 2 to 3 days, most standard plugins less than two weeks. The quote gives you the exact timeline before you pay, and a rush option shortens it.

Is the price really fixed?

Yes, for the scope written in your quote. An engineer reviews every quote within one business day. If your plugin needs more than the quote covers, we tell you before any work starts, and you can adjust the scope or get a full refund.

Who owns the code?

You do. Moodle plugins are licensed under the GPL, and we hand over the full repository with its tests and docs. You can publish it, extend it, or hire anyone else to work on it later.

Which Moodle versions do you support?

Moodle 4.1 LTS through the current 5.x releases. If you run something older, mention it to the agent and the quote will include the extra work.

Do you use AI to write the code?

Yes, and that's why it's faster and cheaper. AI agents draft code and tests; a senior engineer designs the plugin, reviews every line, and is responsible for what ships. You talk to people, not just a bot.
