A fixed-price MVP from Build MVP Fast starts at $3,460 — less than one month of a mid-level US engineer fully loaded. You get a full team (designer + frontend + backend + mobile) for a bounded scope, with no equity, no benefits, and no recruiting cost.
We ship production-ready MVPs in 15–21 days at a fixed price. No surprises, no hourly billing.
