Cost depends on the modules you select: a basic store (catalog, cart, checkout) is far lighter than a platform with omnichannel selling, subscriptions and advanced analytics. The tool sums effort per module, converts it into token AI cost and estimated person-months, so you can compare against the subscription you pay today.

If you only need standard selling features with no special requirements, renting an existing platform is usually faster and easier. Building your own is worth considering when you want to own your data, escape long-term subscription lock-in, or need workflows that SaaS won't let you customize. The tool helps you see the break-even between the two paths.

An online store stores personal details, shipping addresses and purchase history, so it falls under Decree 13/2023. When you build your own, you directly control storage, access roles and encryption instead of relying on a third party; in return, you take on responsibility for configuring security correctly.

This is a reference estimate based on average effort ranges per module, not a committed quote. Real cost shifts with integration complexity, the volume of data to migrate and customization needs. Use the number as a starting point to discuss concrete scope with TOT.

The tool gives a cost estimate with a reference price list for each AI plan. It is not an official quote — for a detailed quote on your ecommerce software (by scope, features and integrations), contact TOT to scope it.
