what shapes the price of an app, a website, or a brand.
how much does it cost to build an app?
a focused web app around your three core workflows is $12,500 at startup ui: up to eight main screens, login, a database, a billing integration, and a basic admin. the target is 4 to 6 weeks. iOS and android apps are quoted on their own.
how much does a website cost?
a website of up to five pages in your brand is $5,500, with custom design and copy refinement, a CMS you can edit, and basic technical SEO and analytics, in 2 to 3 weeks. one custom landing page, ready to collect leads, is $2,500 in 5 to 7 business days.
how much does a brand cost?
a brand sprint is $5,000: a positioning workshop, a logo and visual identity, and a short brand guide, in 1 to 2 weeks.
what if i need the app, the website, and the brand?
the full startup launch puts all three together for $19,500, in 5 to 7 weeks. booked one at a time they come to $23,000, so together you save $3,500.
why fixed prices?
every launch has a set scope. your quote holds the scope, one price, target dates, and the payment plan, so you know the number before we start.
what gets its own quote?
new ideas and larger features. marketplaces, big migrations, offline sync, regulated workflows, and custom integrations get their own discovery and price. iOS and android apps are quoted on their own.
how long does a launch take?
our targets: a landing page in 5 to 7 business days, a brand sprint in 1 to 2 weeks, a website in 2 to 3 weeks, a web app in 4 to 6 weeks, and a full startup launch in 5 to 7 weeks. the weeks start once scope, content, access, and your part are ready.
how do payments work?
launches: 50% to book, 30% at the working preview, and 20% at acceptance. a launch blueprint is paid when you book it, and the $750 comes off a launch booked within 30 days.
not sure what you need yet?
start with a $750 launch blueprint: a workshop that turns your idea into a plan, with the scope, your key user flow, a wireframe, and a fixed quote for your launch.
what happens after launch?
every launch includes two rounds of consolidated design changes, deployment and a handoff, and 30 days of fixes for defects against the agreed scope. for ongoing design, product design growth is $11,000 a month and product design partner is $25,000 a month, with engineering quoted separately.
