Ask HN: Average budget for a development company? (Gigster, Appster, etc.)

1 points by starshadowx2 10y ago ↗ HN

I've seen a few of these companies, and now Gigster at YC, but I haven't seen any information about what a general budget or cost to use one is.

I know that the main answer will probably be "it depends", but looking past that, what would be an average budget for a full project from scratch? (web, mobile, backend, frontend, etc.)

Gigster has a pretty extensive blog post about the cost of various app projects here: http://blog.trygigster.com/mvp-costs/

According to them, of the 13 most popular apps they develop, "the median MVP price is $10,800 for iOS. For Android the median price is $8,640. The price to develop a web app is typically about the same as developing the app for Android."
