Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an MVP actually cost?
MVP costs vary widely based on complexity: Simple MVPs (landing page, auth, basic features) cost $5,000-$15,000. Standard MVPs (multiple user types, payments, dashboards) cost $15,000-$40,000. Complex MVPs (marketplaces, real-time features, integrations) cost $40,000-$100,000+. At Webscension, we offer complete MVPs for $2,997 with our fixed-price model.
Why is Webscension so much cheaper than other agencies?
Three reasons: 1) We specialize in MVPs only—no enterprise projects, no scope creep. 2) We use battle-tested templates and processes that eliminate repeated work. 3) We're a small, efficient team without agency overhead. Lower costs doesn't mean lower quality—it means we've optimized for this specific problem.
What affects MVP development cost the most?
The biggest cost drivers are: Number of user types (each adds complexity), third-party integrations (payment processors, APIs, etc.), custom features vs standard solutions, and real-time functionality. The simplest way to reduce cost is to ruthlessly cut features to the absolute minimum needed for validation.
Should I build an MVP or a full product?
Almost always an MVP first. 93% of startups fail because they build something nobody wants. An MVP lets you validate with real users before investing heavily. Even if you have funding, starting with an MVP reduces risk and gives you data for better decisions.
How long does it take to build an MVP?
Timeline varies by complexity: Simple MVPs take 2-4 weeks, standard MVPs take 4-8 weeks, and complex MVPs take 8-16 weeks. Webscension delivers complete MVPs in 2 weeks with our optimized process.
