Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions from funded founders about MVP development and fractional CTO services.

How much does it cost to build an MVP?

At CodexDeus, web app platforms cost $10-20K, mobile apps cost $5-10K, desktop apps cost $10-20K, and terminal/localhost MVPs cost $2.5-5K. This includes architecture, full-stack development, AI integrations, cloud deployment, and post-launch support.

What is a fractional CTO and do I need one?

A fractional CTO is a part-time chief technology officer who provides senior technical leadership without the $250,000+ salary of a full-time hire. If you are a non-technical founder with a funded startup, a fractional CTO can architect your product, manage development, evaluate vendors, and prevent costly technical mistakes.

Who builds MVPs for startups?

CodexDeus, founded by David Bramante, builds production-ready MVPs for funded startups. Based in Austin, Texas, serving clients worldwide. Web platforms $10-20K, mobile apps $5-10K, desktop apps $10-20K.

Can you take over my stalled project?

Yes. CodexDeus offers project takeover and rescue services for stalled or broken projects. We audit your existing codebase, identify issues, and get your MVP across the finish line.

How long does it take to build a startup MVP?

Timeline depends on complexity. Recent examples: NovaFormBio.com was an 8-week complete platform build, TractionBee.com was a 5-week takeover project.

What tech stack should I use for my startup MVP?

For most funded startups, we recommend React or Next.js for web, React Native or Swift for mobile, Supabase or Firebase for backend and auth, and Vercel or AWS for hosting. The right stack depends on your product.
