MVP Cost Calculator
What does an MVP actually cost to build?
A transparent ballpark based on how many user flows you need and which features come with them — auth is assumed included, everything else is itemised.
Authentication is assumed included in every option.
Estimated range
$6,800 – $9,200
Ballpark only — not a quote
How this is calculated
Base price scales with the number of core user flows ($8,000 for one journey up to $22,000 for four or more), with authentication assumed as a baseline feature at no extra charge. Payments, an admin dashboard, and AI features each add a flat amount. The result is shown as a ±15% range for the same reason the Website Cost Calculator is: real scopes vary.
This is a ballpark estimate, not a quote. MVP scope is where estimates drift the most — get a real fixed price and a clear scope-lock via the intake form before committing to a number.
FAQ
Quick answers.

That is usually not an MVP by this studio's definition — it is a Product Sprint. The calculator will flag this and point you to the right tier.
Yes — this estimates design and development together, the same way an MVP Sprint engagement is scoped.
