Ask HN: Any interest for idea-to-launch in 6 weeks for $3800?

4 points by WWKong ↗ HN
I finally found a small team of developers who successfully launched my side project. The hardest part has been, by far, finding the right team to outsource. It took me several years and several failed attempt to land with this team.

Since I was happy with the output for the amount of money I paid, I thought others in my shoes might benefit from something like this. So I worked out a package with team:

MVP, 6 weeks of effort, one mobile platform of choice, $3800, includes basic design, includes publishing to app store

Wanted to see if there is any interest from the startup community. Any feedback on the package, pricing? Any experience to share?

What is your take/incentive from this?

Not decided yet. For now it is helping this good team get couple projects. I teach the community how to build mobile apps online. Some students expressed interest in skipping the learning curve and getting an MVP out. Thought I will ask here and see how it plays out.

I need an app that scans receipts, runs OCR on them and extracts given data fields using regex. Both pictures and extracted data need to be send to a backend provided by me. Ideally, the app can be build using web stack so it can be used via browser as web app so we do not need to code native for iOS and Android . Users need to be auth before using the app since scans and data will be saved under each users account.

This sounds like something that they can deliver. If you want to get it built send me the mocks at buildanappwithme at gmail. I will review the team and finalize.
