How Much Will It Cost to Develop Your MVP?

The cost of developing an MVP can vary widely based on several factors, such as the product's complexity, the features you choose, the design, and the technologies required. Typically, MVP development accounts for 10-50% of the total cost of a full-scale software solution.

Type of Application & Platforms Supported:

Whether you're building a mobile app, web app, or SaaS platform, the type of application and the platforms it supports will directly impact the development cost. Each platform has unique design, functionality, and performance requirements.

Feature Complexity:

The more features you include in your MVP, the higher the cost. We focus on building only the core features necessary to validate your product in the market, ensuring you don’t overspend on non-essential functions.

UI Design & User Experience:

Custom and unique UI designs typically increase costs. However, our focus is on creating intuitive, user-friendly designs that align with your goals while avoiding unnecessary complexity.

Integrations with Other Systems:

If your MVP needs to integrate with third-party systems, APIs, or existing platforms, this can add to the cost. We ensure seamless integrations that add value without driving up the price unnecessarily.

Performance & Security Requirements:

Performance and security requirements may influence the overall cost, depending on your product's needs. We prioritize essential performance features and security measures to ensure a stable and secure MVP.

Rough Cost Estimates by Application Type:

  • Mobile App MVP

    $40,000–$120,000

  • Web App MVP

    $80,000–$160,000

  • SaaS MVP:

    $120,000–$300,000

Note: These are general estimates, and the actual cost will vary based on the specific needs and requirements of your project. We offer customized quotes after understanding your project scope, features, and goals.

MVP vs. Prototype vs. PoC: Which One Do You Need?

What is an MVP?

An MVP (Minimum Viable Product) is a version of your product that includes only the essential features required to test your business idea in the market. It’s designed to collect valuable feedback from early users and validate your product's market fit. The MVP is fully functional, but it only includes the core features necessary to prove your concept.

What is a Proof of Concept (PoC)?

A Proof of Concept (PoC) is a demonstration used to validate the technical feasibility or potential of your idea. Unlike an MVP or prototype, a PoC doesn’t include a finished product or user interface—it’s simply used to prove that the core concept or technology behind your product is achievable.

What is a Prototype?

A Prototype is a preliminary version of your product, often used to demonstrate its design and user interface (UI). Prototypes typically don't have full functionality, but they provide a visual or interactive representation of the user experience (UX). It's used to gather feedback on design elements before proceeding to development.

Criteria MVP Prototype PoC
Purpose Test the product in the market Visualize design and user interface Validate technical feasibility
Stage Pre-launch, market testing Design & development phase Early validation of idea
Functionality Essential features to validate product-market fit Limited features for design feedback Minimal or none
User Interaction High interaction to test usability and features High interaction for design feedback None or minimal
Duration Long-term (pre-launch, product validation) Medium-term (design and feedback phase) Short-term (proof phase)
