What a serious software engagement actually costs.
If a quote is dramatically cheaper than the ranges below, something else is missing: senior time, testing, handover, or the scope itself. This page exists so you can self-select before we talk.
Choose a starting path, not a mystery hourly pile
Paid Discovery & Solution Blueprint
When the first release is not yet honest. Fixed-fee. Time-boxed. You leave with a buildable plan.
→60-Day MVP program
Qualified products, locked scope, production in 60 days, $6,000 behind the date we control. Typical qualified engagements begin around USD $25,000.
→Rescue review then a slice
Stalled work. First a truth memo, then a priced production slice.
→90-Day Dedicated Product Team
When the roadmap is larger than a single MVP. A squad on a defined surface area.
→Planning ranges (USD)
Paid Discovery
Fixed fee, quoted before work starts.
Focused production slice / MVP
Often from about $25,000 when scope can be locked. Richer products, two platforms, or heavy integration sit higher.
Multi-phase product
Budget in phases. The first production release is priced as itself, not as “the whole platform in one invoice.”
Dedicated team, 90 days
A squad price, not a disguised hourly surprise. Quoted against role mix and seniority.
What actually changes the investment
Number of user journeys and screens.
Web, iOS, Android, or more than one.
Integrations with billing, identity, ERP, or payments.
Data migration and whether the source data is clean.
Security, audit, and who must sign off.
How fast decisions will be made on your side.
What is included in a build
Product definition for the agreed slice, design for that slice, engineering, QA, deployment to the agreed environment, documentation, and a short stabilization window. Ongoing growth is a separate plan.
