What will your product cost to build?
Five quick questions. At the end you get a price range, timeline, team size and payment milestones, based on a $30/hour blended rate for our Lagos team.
About pricing
It depends on what the app does, more than on whether it is "an app". With a Lagos-based team, a focused web app or mobile MVP often starts from a few thousand dollars, while fintech products with KYC, ledgers and compliance start higher. Our projects start from $2,500. Use the estimator above for a range that matches your scope.
It is an indicative range built from effort benchmarks for each feature, multiplied by our blended Lagos team rate. Most final quotes land inside the range. The fixed quote comes after a free scoping call, where we check integrations, edge cases and what you can leave out of version one.
Product scoping, UI/UX design, development, QA, deployment and launch support. Third-party costs such as cloud hosting, KYC lookups, SMS, WhatsApp messages and app store fees are billed by those providers.
In milestones tied to working software: typically 30% at kick-off, 40% at a working beta and 30% at launch and handover. You own the code.
Regulated products need extra engineering: audit trails, consent flows, data residency, access controls and security testing. Building it in from the start is far cheaper than retrofitting it after launch.
