How Much Does a 2-Week MVP Cost?

A 2-week MVP with Squirrel Technologies costs $3,999 to $8,999 (USD). The biggest factor in the price is your core feature: the actual problem your product solves and what it takes to build it. Around that core, the tiers below set how much sign-in, admin, analytics, payments, deployment, and mobile work is included. Complex features, such as escrow accounts, WebRTC calling, or building for several platforms at once, are quoted separately.

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

A typical 2-week MVP is priced between $3,999 and $8,999. The final price depends on what is being built: complex features such as escrow accounts or WebRTC calling cost more, and so does building for more than one platform (for example a mobile app, a desktop app, and a website).
