What Really Drives Your MVP Cost?
It's more than just features. Understanding these key drivers empowers you to make smart decisions and optimize your budget effectively.
Scope & Feature Complexity
The number and complexity of features are the biggest cost drivers. A simple app with basic user profiles and content display will cost significantly less than a complex FinTech platform with real-time data, payment processing, and multiple user roles.
Design & User Experience (UI/UX)
A visually appealing and intuitive design is crucial for user adoption. A project using pre-built UI templates is more affordable, while a fully custom, branded design with extensive user research and prototyping represents a larger investment that pays off in engagement.
Technology Stack & Integrations
The technologies used impact the cost. A standard web stack is generally more cost-effective than an MVP requiring specialized expertise like AI/ML, blockchain, or AR/VR. The number of third-party API integrations also adds to the complexity and cost.
Team Composition
The size and expertise of the development team affect the cost. Our model provides a balanced team of a project manager, UI/UX designer, developers, and QA engineers, ensuring you get the right expertise without unnecessary overhead.
