Show HN: Cost&Time AI Estimator for MVP and Full Product. Seeking Your Feedback (allcancode.com)

7 points by KostasAret ↗ HN
Hi HN community,

We're developing a free tool that aims to help founders and product teams estimate the costs of developing an MVP versus a full-scale product.

Here's the gist: 1. You input a description of your idea into our AI Estimator. 2. It provides you with two estimates: one for an MVP and another for a complete product.

We're sharing it here because we value the critical and insightful feedback that the HN community is known for. The tool is in its early stages, and we're looking to refine its accuracy and user experience.

If you have a moment, please try it out: https://www.allcancode.com/time-to-market

We'd be grateful for any feedback on the following: 1. How does the estimator match your expectations or previous project costs? 2. Is the user interface intuitive enough? 3. What additional features would you want in such a tool?

Feel free to DM me or comment below with your thoughts. Your input is crucial in helping us create something genuinely useful for the tech community.

It would be nice to see it open source. As im concerned about the privacy policy as its a really valuable information

So you're collecting potential ideas for free, and also you need my email to provide me an estimate? Can't do it on the webpage?

My suggestion is that you provide some value before asking for the email address. Such as, providing the price upfront and requiring the email address for the time estimate - or vice versa.

Normally these "instant quote" services do not actually provide you an instant quote even after you have handed over your information.

Cool idea. I need to know what the advantages of this. (vs me using ChatGPT to generate code?). Maybe you want to explain more about the process and values customers will get for the price. Also, I don't think new customers are willing to spend 400 euros/week to try out a new service.
