For Startups

An MVP investors take seriously, without a Western agency price tag.

We work with early-stage founders who need a real, working product fast — not a slide deck. Fixed-scope MVPs, transparent pricing, and a team that tells you what won’t work before you pay for it.

Why startups choose Vixarc

Priced for runway, not for enterprise budgets

Mobile app MVPs from $20,000, SaaS platforms from $25,000 — fixed scope, quoted upfront. Full breakdown on our pricing page.

Weeks, not quarters

A simple MVP typically ships in 6–10 weeks. We scope tight, ship fast, and iterate from real usage instead of over-planning.

Built to survive contact with real users

Clean architecture from day one means the product you show investors in month three doesn’t have to be rebuilt in month six.

How we work

How an engagement actually runs.

Four stages, and the first one matters most. Working out what not to build is usually worth more than building faster — so we spend real time there before anything is committed to code.

Discovery and scoping

We map the process or product as it works today — systems, data, the people involved, and where it breaks. Most of the value is here: knowing what not to build is usually worth more than building faster.

Architecture and trade-offs

We choose an approach and write down why, including what we ruled out. You see the trade-offs — cost against flexibility, speed against durability — before anything is committed to code.

Build in two-week cycles

Working software at the end of each cycle, in a real environment you can use. Scope is fixed, and changes are priced and agreed rather than absorbed silently and paid for in delays.

Production and handover

Tested against real data and real edge cases, not a clean demo set. You get documentation, monitoring and a handover written so another engineer could pick it up — including one who doesn't work for us.

Common questions from founders

How much does a project with Vixarc cost?

Smaller fixed-scope work starts at $2,500 — one workflow automated, a landing page, a single AI feature added to something you already run. Full product builds are larger: mobile apps from $20,000, SaaS platforms from $25,000, AI integrations from $30,000, and complex multi-role platforms run $50,000–$150,000. The estimator on this page walks through what moves the number, and we would rather tell you a smaller engagement will do than quote you the bigger one.

Does Vixarc work with non-technical founders?

Yes — most of the people we work with are non-technical. We translate business goals into technical specifications, explain the trade-off behind each decision in plain terms, and keep you in control of scope and priorities. You don't need to understand the technology to make good calls about your product.
