## Pricing

One fixed price, agreed before we start. No hourly billing, no hidden fees.

| Scope | What it looks like | Price |
|---|---|---|
| **Core MVP** | One user type, sign-up and login, your core workflow, database, Stripe checkout or a waitlist, basic admin, landing page, production deployment | From $5,000 |
| **Add-ons** | Subscription billing, teams and roles, AI features, real-time, file processing, integrations, custom brand design | Priced per feature |
| **Larger builds** | Native mobile apps, marketplaces, compliance-heavy products | Scoped on a call |

Payment is 50% upfront and 50% on delivery. For comparison, freelancers typically quote $8,000 to $25,000 and agencies $50,000 to $150,000 or more for similar scope ([full cost guide](https://minidev.pro/blog/mvp-development-cost-guide-2026)).

## What's included

### 48-hour product clarity

Value loop, scope, and shipping roadmap. No feature bloat.

### Production-grade MVP

Full-stack app, auth, database, responsive UI, deployed to production.

### Landing & narrative

Conversion-focused landing page plus demo/investor narrative.

### 30 days post-launch

Bug fixes, UX polish, and upgrades after you go live.

## What is not included, and how changes work

### Not in the core price

Native mobile apps, subscription plans and trials, team roles, AI features, extra integrations and custom brand design. Each has a fixed add-on price, listed on the [calculator page](https://minidev.pro/mvp-cost-calculator#price-list).

### Scope is agreed first

The written scope is signed before the build starts. The fixed price and the delivery date are both measured against it.

### Changing your mind

Small adjustments inside the agreed workflow are part of the build. A major change of scope is priced and dated before we do it, and can move the delivery date.

### After launch

30 days of bug fixes and small changes are included. New features after that are quoted separately or handled on the [monthly retainer](https://minidev.pro/saas-development).

### [SaaS MVPs](https://minidev.pro/blog/saas-mvp-development)

## How the 30 days work

### Week 1: Scope and design

Discovery with the developers, a signed Must / Later / Never scope, designs for the core screens, and a deployed skeleton app.

### Week 2: Core build

Backend, auth and the one workflow that proves your idea, working end to end on staging with real data.

### Week 3: Integrations

Payments, email, analytics and the supporting features in scope, plus your landing page.

### Week 4: QA and launch

Testing, polish, production launch and a recorded handover of the codebase. Post-launch support starts.

## Is it a fit?

### A good fit

You know who the first user is and what problem you solve, and you want real software in their hands within a month.

### Not a fit

You need regulatory certification before anyone touches the product, or months of internal review before the first line of code.
