What affects MVP cost?
Every MVP solves a different business problem. That is why prices vary — and that is normal. Here is what shapes the budget.
Complexity of user flows — how many different actions does a user need to perform? Signup, search, content creation, payment. Each new flow adds development time.
Number and depth of features — do you need basic CRUD operations or smart features like AI recommendations, advanced search, or automations?
User roles — one user type or multiple (buyers, sellers, admins)? Each role brings its own features.
Integrations — connecting to payment systems, email services, CRM, or other tools adds complexity.
Design and UX — ready-made UI kits lower the cost, fully custom design is more expensive. Both are valid choices depending on your goals.
Estimated MVP cost ranges
Prices are estimates because every project has unique requirements. We work on a fixed price defined through a discovery phase.
Simple MVP — from €2,000 to €4,000 — basic user flow with a few key features. One user role, no integrations or one simple integration. Example: event registration app, simple booking system.
Medium-complexity MVP — from €4,000 to €7,000 — multiple user flows, payment integration, basic admin panel. Example: marketplace platform with listings, search, and payments.
Complex MVP — from €7,000 to €10,000+ — advanced features, multiple user roles, extensive integrations. Example: SaaS application with multiple user types and billing.
Although we are based in Serbia, we apply world-class development standards. Our rates are 40-60% lower than Western European and US agencies, with the same or higher quality.
How to reduce MVP cost without sacrificing quality?
A good MVP is not cheap — but with smart choices, you can optimize your budget.
Focus on one problem — define the absolute minimum that solves the core user need. Less in the first version = lower cost and faster time to market.
Defer advanced options — smart features, complex reports, and extra integrations can come later when the product is live and feedback confirms what is truly needed.
Build one complete user path — instead of covering every possible scenario, build one end-to-end flow and test it.
Prepare clear requirements — precise specifications before starting reduce the number of changes during development and the final cost.
MVP development timeline
- Simple MVP: 4-6 weeks — analysis, design, development, testing, and launch.
- Medium-complexity MVP: 6-10 weeks — more features and integrations require a longer cycle.
- Complex MVP: 10-16 weeks — advanced features, multiple roles, and extensive testing.
- Key factor that shortens timeline: clear requirements. The more precisely you define your needs, the faster we can build.
- After launch, we also offer monthly maintenance from €25 (introductory) / €45 (regular) for support and further development.
Frequently Asked Questions
The smallest viable MVP that solves a real problem starts at €2,000. Below that, you are likely getting a prototype or mockup, not a product ready for testing with real users. We provide a fixed price before starting.
