MVP & Product Build · 4-8 weeks

Version one, shipped right, once.

Web application, SaaS platform, or mobile app: the product gets built on foundations that survive success, and you watch it grow in weekly deployed increments instead of waiting for a big reveal.

Scope your build

from €18,000scoped in weekly milestones

This is for you if

  • You're a founder with a validated idea and a deadline (investors, pilot customers, a market window)
  • You need a mobile app and a web platform that share one backend instead of three disconnected codebases
  • An earlier build by another team stalled, and you need it rescued or rebuilt properly
  • You're a non-technical team that needs a partner who explains decisions in plain language

What you get

Every item below is part of the fixed written proposal. Nothing here is an upsell.

The product, deployed and monitored

Web apps and SaaS in TypeScript and Next.js; mobile apps cross-platform first, native where it's justified. Running in production with CI/CD, error tracking, and monitoring from the first week.

The boring essentials, done properly

Authentication, payments, transactional email, and admin basics wired to proven providers instead of hand-rolled. This is where products usually leak time and security; here it's standard.

Weekly shipped milestones

Every week ends with software you can click, a short written update, and a decision list. Scope changes are welcome and re-priced openly, never smuggled into an invoice.

Foundations for growth

SEO and AEO groundwork on public pages, analytics that answer real questions, documentation, and a post-launch roadmap with an honest monthly cost model. Handover includes a walkthrough, not just a repo link.

How it runs

01

Intro call

30 minutes, free. We establish what you're building, what's blocking you, and whether we're the right fit. If we're not, we'll say so and point you somewhere better.

02

Written proposal

Within 48 hours you get a fixed scope, a price, and a timeline in writing, including what's explicitly out of scope. No surprises invoiced later.

03

Weekly working software

Every week ends with a demo of deployed software and a short written update. You always know where the project stands.

04

Handover & ownership

You own the code, the infrastructure, and the accounts from day one. Handover includes documentation and a walkthrough. No lock-in, ever.

Fair questions

Do you build mobile apps too?+

Yes. Cross-platform (one codebase for iOS and Android) is the default because it's the best value for most products; we recommend fully native only when the product genuinely needs it and we say so with reasons.

What does 'from €18,000' actually buy?+

The smallest serious version: one core workflow, auth, payments if needed, deployed and monitored. The scoping call turns your idea into a fixed written number before anything starts. Most MVPs land between €18,000 and €45,000 depending on scope.

Can you work with our designer or existing brand?+

Gladly. We build from your designs when you have them and keep design deliberately lean when you don't. If the project needs dedicated product design, we say so upfront and you approve any specialist first.

What happens after launch?+

You own the code, infrastructure, and accounts, so you're free to continue with anyone. Most clients keep a fractional engagement for iteration; either way you get a documented handover and a roadmap.

The studio also builds: Web applications & SaaS · Mobile apps (iOS & Android) · RAG & knowledge systems · Agentic workflows & AI assistants · Chat & voice bots · APIs & integrations· and more. If your project doesn't fit this package neatly, describe it anyway. Scope bends; standards don't.

Ready when you are.
