In short
A fixed-price MVP is the first version of your product, built for a price agreed in writing before work starts. MVPs start at $8,500. Scope changes are raised before the extra work is done. Everything is built in accounts you own, and you get a 30-day bug-fix window after launch.
Best for and not for
Best for
- Founders with a defined first version who want a fixed price.

- Existing apps that are broken: see the Bubble app rescue sprint, from $5,000 or the AI-built app rescue sprint, from $5,000.
- A single integration: see API integration, from $2,000.

FAQ
What does 'from $8,500' include, and what moves the price?
$8,500 is the starting price for a first version with a defined scope. The final number depends on that scope, and you get it in writing before any work starts. Nothing is charged before you approve it.
Do you build in Bubble or in code?
Both. I'm a certified Bubble developer, and I also work in code. On the call I'll tell you which one fits your first version, including when it isn't the one you expected.
What happens if I want to change the scope?
Scope changes are raised before the extra work is done. You get the change and its price in writing, and you decide whether to add it now or after launch.
Who owns the code, the data and the accounts?
You do. Everything is built in accounts you own, from day one. If you stop working with me, nothing has to be handed over.
What happens after launch?
You get a 30-day bug-fix window after launch. After that, ongoing work is available through Ongoing Bubble development, or I scope the next version at a fixed price.
How do I pay?
50% to start, 25% when 80% of the scope is delivered, 25% on delivery. Prices in USD. Paid by ACH or wire.
