What it costs

Four steps, and at every step you know what it costs.

01
Intro call
Half an hour about your situation, and whether this is a fit.
Free
02
Project brief
Scope, requirements, architecture, approach and a time estimate. The plan is yours, even if you do not continue with us.
Freeintroductory offer, normally €1,500
03
A working MVP
What you hold after that three month minimum.
from €15,000
04
Development as a Service
Building, maintaining, hosting and extending in one amount. Three month minimum, because one month achieves nothing.
€5,000per month

That €15,000 is not a build sum on top of the subscription. It is exactly three months times €5,000, which is the minimum term made concrete. Nothing is added to it.

Questions about the cost

  • At Growcode from €15,000. That is three months times €5,000, the minimum term. In those three months you get a working first version you can genuinely use.

  • Yes. As long as you are on the monthly fee, hosting, monitoring and maintenance are included in the €5,000 per month. If you only want it kept running after delivery, without further development, we agree a lower amount for that.

  • Because nobody can give that price honestly before it is clear what exactly needs to be built. Anyone who does it anyway either prices in the risk or comes back halfway for extra work. With us you pay to use our efficient AI-native way of working. And we believe that keeps you happy with the service, which is why you can cancel at any moment.

  • €150 per hour, but only for standalone advice or research where nothing gets built. As soon as we build, the monthly fee applies, because hours are exactly the model we are leaving behind.

  • Nothing. You send us the quote or the codebase, we look at it and give an independent verdict. Including when the conclusion is that you are better off with the other party.

  • You can, every week, if you are not satisfied. You get the last week back and we end the engagement. Everything that is there stays yours.

  • No, all amounts mentioned are excluding VAT.

  • A mobile app in one codebase for iOS and Android sits in the same range as a web application. At Growcode from €15,000 for a working version within three months.

  • Building as little as possible that turns out to be wrong. In practice that means: start small with real users on it, and only expand once those users point out what is missing. Every hour spent on the wrong feature is more expensive than any rate.

  • For a first working version of limited scope: roughly €15,000 to €40,000 at a small studio or freelancer, €25,000 to €80,000 at a classic software agency, and €100,000 or more at a large consultancy. At Growcode an MVP starts at €15,000 within three months.

Start with a half hour conversation.

You hear honestly whether this fits. If it does not, we say so, and you still walk away with an independent read on where you stand.

No sales pitch. If it is not a fit, we say so in the call.
