Launch your MVP in 2 to 4 weeks for $5,000 to $15,000

For a first-time founder, a non-technical founder or an industry professional leaving employment to start a company.

Our rate is $39-55 an hour, and clients rate us 4.8 out of 5 on Clutch, from 70 reviews.

Estimate my MVP

What an MVP costs and how long it takes

A typical MVP costs $5,000-15,000 and takes 2-4 weeks. The minimum project is $5,000. We charge $39-55 an hour, so the price depends on how much the first release has to do.

A typical 4-week plan

Week 1

Scope and design

We agree on your users, the one main task the product must do and what stays out. Then we design the key screens.

Week 2

Core build

We build the main flow and plug in ready-made modules for sign-up, payments and the admin panel.

Week 3

Finish and test

We finish the features, test them and fix what breaks.

Week 4

Launch

Your first users get the product. We watch what they do and plan the next release around it.

A smaller MVP can fit into 2 weeks. We agree on the plan with you before any work starts.

What is included

  • Discovery: we define your users, the main flow and a backlog
  • UI/UX design of the key screens
  • A web or mobile app built on ready-made modules for sign-up, payments and the admin panel
  • Testing and bug fixes
  • Launch, plus a plan for the next release

How we build an MVP in 2 to 4 weeks

We compete on speed. These six things make it possible.

Startup methods

We use Extreme Programming, Scrum, Customer Development and Lean Startup. Short cycles and early user feedback show which ideas to drop before they eat weeks of work.

AI tools in daily work

Our engineers use AI tools in development, so routine work takes less time.

Ready-made modules

Sign-up, payments, admin panels and other common parts come from ready-made modules. We don't rebuild them for every product.

A narrow first release

We build only what tests your idea. Everything else waits in the backlog.

A small senior team

Senior engineers work in a small team, so tasks change hands less often and decisions happen fast.

Our own AI R&D

Our AI R&D department fine-tunes AI models, works on AI security and builds AI-native ways to develop software.

Two AI apps on the App Store in 2 weeks each

Both founders started with an idea and no code. We made the name, the brand, the design and the app, and each first release went live in 2 weeks.

Tristan Hoffmann
Founder, Filiko LLC
In creating an application for our SaaS platform, we needed a highly-qualified team who would be able to understand and implement world-class application functionality. Rocketech provided us with a top-notch functionality development, testing, maintenance and bug fixing. Their work was incredibly good. I would like to keep our cooperation as long as possible.
Cecilia Tan

Ainar Abdrakhmanov
CEO & Founder, Babystep TV
Rocketech developed a password manager application for a mobile product advertiser. They wrote code for the front and backend and they integrated the app with a mail service. Although the project is still preparing for launch, Rocketech collaborated extremely well with the client. The team completed all tasks and resolved any issues quickly. They were always willing to share their expertise and offered solutions to problems.

From domain knowledge to a bounded first product

Start with the problem, not a feature list

Bring a customer problem, your industry experience and the assumptions you need to test. We help turn them into discovery questions. Customer interviews and evidence of willingness to pay matter more than a polished demo.

Validate, buy, prototype or build?

Compare an existing tool you can buy, a manual test, an AI-assisted prototype and custom development. An AI demo can help test an interaction; it does not establish market demand, data safety or production readiness. Agree what evidence would justify building, changing direction or stopping.

Define the MVP boundary

Choose one audience, one core workflow and a testable first release. Record must-haves, exclusions, dependencies and budget assumptions before estimating. A delivered MVP is a learning tool, not proof of product-market fit or investment readiness.

Keep decisions and responsibilities explicit

You bring domain expertise, access to potential customers and budget decisions. We help with discovery, design and engineering in the agreed scope. Confirm code ownership, repository and account access, handover documentation and post-launch support terms in the engagement; ongoing support is not assumed to be unlimited.

Guestroom: a first iteration, not a claim of market fit

A self-funded founder needed an MVP under a tight budget and deadline. The published case describes a completed first iteration, documentation and a backlog, followed by customer development and feedback for the next pivot. PayPal and Twilio integrations were awaiting a later release.

Read the Guestroom delivery scope

Before committing the budget

Use these guides to separate early estimates from commitments, understand B2B SaaS financial assumptions, and consider marketplace growth only when the model calls for it.

Explore the assumptions behind your first release

Describe your idea, first-release scope and open questions in the project estimate form. Use them to begin a scoping discussion; an estimate does not validate demand or guarantee a final price.

Looking for a technical co-founder?

Rocketech can join some startups as a co-founder. We invest our own money and a team of experts in the product and agree on the terms case by case. If you only need technical leadership, book a fractional CTO for 10, 20 or 40 hours a month at $39-55 an hour.

Who we are

Rocketech is a custom software development company headquartered in Singapore, with an R&D office in Kyiv and offices in London and San Francisco.

Since 2015, we have been helping entrepreneurs launch startups: 115 of the 150+ products we have delivered were startups. Together with founders, we assess their ideas, build MVPs and plan product development. We understand what successful startups need and have translated this knowledge into a proven process of delivering and launching quality software.

In a regular project, we bring design and engineering expertise to the agreed scope, and business and funding decisions stay with the founders. A standard development project doesn't include funding. When we join a startup as a co-founder, Rocketech can also invest its own money and a team of experts, on terms agreed case by case.

Who we help

Tech founders

We provide design and engineering expertise for your startup launch. According to your unique business requirements, we form a dedicated team that follows software development best practices and applies our own know-how.

Non-tech founders

We help translate your customer problem into a development scope and explain technical trade-offs. The agreed team designs and builds the product; you retain product, budget and funding decisions.

CTOs leading startup development

We form a team of experienced senior and middle-level specialists who design complex and highly scalable systems. Following the industry's best practices and using our own know-how allows us to create high-quality software and speed up the development process.

Startups validating their ideas and building MVPs

We provide a development team selected for the agreed product scope. Our professionals assess ideas, conduct market research and product discovery, create a proof of concept and go-to-market strategies, and develop fully functional MVPs.

Startups in the growth stage

We assemble a dedicated team to help you with the growth-stage objectives: quick team augmentation, performance optimization, analytics and improved engagement, usability assessment and upgrade, architectural advancement for better scalability, DevOps support, tech audit, and security enhancement.

Startups in need of an end-to-end product development partner

Taking into account your startup's industry or niche, we assemble a dedicated team that takes on the product development process under your supervision — from PoC and UI/UX design through MVP and iterative product development, testing and QA, and integrations with third-party systems to post-release support.
