Here's the actual number.

We've shipped 100+ products in 15 years. We price by phase, not by the hour — so you know what you're getting, when you'll get it, and what it costs before you commit a rupee or a dollar.

Why nobody gives you a straight number

"It depends" isn't an answer. It's a negotiating tactic.

Why nobody gives you a straight number

"It depends" isn't an answer. It's a negotiating tactic.

Ask ten studios what your product costs and you'll get ten variations of "it depends." Scope genuinely changes price — but the less you know going in, the more room they have.

You're deciding whether to spend a meaningful chunk of your runway. You deserve real numbers first. So here's exactly how our pricing works, and what each tier gets you.

Where your money actually goes

A $40K build isn't 40,000 hours of one person typing.

A $40K build isn't 40,000 hours of one person typing.

Here's roughly how a build splits. The single biggest cost driver is scope — how many features, how many integrations, how much custom AI. That's exactly what we pin down first, so the number doesn't move on you later.
