MVP Launch
MVP development for non-technical founders
Nexera AI builds a working MVP of your web or mobile app in 2–4 weeks, from $4,500. It's for founders who need a real product in front of users without hiring a team. AI writes the code against written specs and tests, and a senior engineer reviews every change before it ships.

Who it's for
Is an MVP Launch right for you?
A good fit if
- You have a product idea and want real users on it within a month.
- You don't write code and don't want to hire and manage developers.
- You can name the one core journey the first version must get right.
- You want to own the code and keep building on it after launch.
Not a fit if
- You only want to test whether people like the idea. Start with a Clickable Prototype for $100–300.
- You already have an app built with AI tools that broke. Start with AI App Rescue.
- You need a large platform with dozens of integrations from day one.
- You want the lowest hourly rate rather than a tested product.
What you get
What an MVP Launch includes
- Product Requirements written with you on the free Scope Call, so everyone agrees what the MVP does.
- A Clickable Prototype of the main screens before any build Milestone starts.
- A web app, a mobile app or both, built against written specs on mainstream technology.
- Automated tests for the core journey that run on every commit, plus CI/CD.
- Deployed to production in accounts you own: hosting, domain, database and analytics.
- Handover docs and a walkthrough, so another developer can pick up the code.
- A 30-day bug-fix warranty after launch.
How it works
From idea to live MVP in four steps
Most MVPs go live in 2–4 weeks. Each build Milestone gets a fixed price in writing before it starts.
- Day 1
Free Scope Call
A senior developer goes through your idea with you and writes the Product Requirements. You get a Ballpark for the whole MVP.
- ~5 business days
Clickable Prototype
We build the main screens with realistic sample data so you can click through the product before the build. From $100, credited if you continue.
- Weeks 2–3
Build and harden
AI writes the code against the specs, tests run on every commit and a senior developer reviews every merge. You see progress in your own repository.
- Week 4
Launch
We deploy to production, check analytics, payments and email end to end, and hand over the docs. Then you decide on a Support Plan or the next Milestone.
Price and timeline
What an MVP costs
An MVP Launch starts from $4,500 and usually takes 2–4 weeks. The final price depends on the number of screens and features, such as sign-in, payments, an admin panel or AI chat.

How pricing works. After the Scope Call you get a Ballpark for the whole MVP. Each Milestone then gets a fixed Milestone Price in writing before it starts, and you pay per Milestone as working software is delivered.

FAQ
Questions, answered
How much does it cost to build an MVP?
An MVP Launch with Nexera AI starts from $4,500. A typical small-to-mid MVP lands between $4,500 and $9,000, depending on the number of screens and features. Each Milestone gets a fixed price in writing before it starts.
How long does it take to build an MVP?
Most MVPs go live in 2–4 weeks: a Clickable Prototype in about 5 business days, two to three weeks of build and hardening, then launch.
Can I build an MVP if I'm not technical?
Yes. That is who the MVP Launch is for. A senior developer writes the Product Requirements with you on the free Scope Call, and you review working screens rather than code.
Is an MVP built with AI good enough for real users?
Yes, because the AI never ships unsupervised. Every feature is built against a written spec, covered by automated tests and reviewed by a senior developer before it merges.
Who owns the MVP code?
You do. Code lives in your repository from the first commit, and once a Milestone is paid you own all of its source code, infrastructure and documentation.
What happens after the MVP launches?
Bugs found in the first 30 days are fixed at no extra cost. After that you can keep the product running on a Support Plan from $150 a month, or plan the next Milestone.
Do you build web apps, mobile apps or both?
Both. We build web apps, iOS and Android apps, and cross-platform apps with React Native, plus any AI features the product needs.
