How much does an app cost? The honest breakdown

Scoping, user flows and a fixed first-sprint plan. It is the cheapest week of the project and the one that stops the expensive surprises later. We do not start design without it.

Wireframes, a clickable prototype and production screens built as a system. The prototype is tested with real users before development starts, so what gets built is what people understood.

A native MVP is usually four to six sprints; Flutter can shave a sprint on a two-platform product. Backend, payments, push and analytics are line items, not afterthoughts.

Two platforms natively, hardware features, real-time sync, custom AI work and integrations with legacy systems — each is a predictable addition, not a mystery. So is a second language or an admin panel.

A fixed first-sprint scope and price, a roadmap for the rest with ranges, and a named person who owns the timeline. If a quote is one number with no scope attached, it is not a quote.
