Pricing Questions
What is included in the $20K MVP price?
Everything you need to launch: architecture design, full-stack development, AI integrations where they add value, cloud deployment, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and 30 days of post-launch support. No hidden fees or surprise charges.
How does pricing compare to agencies?
A typical dev agency quotes $150K-$300K for what CTO DAVE delivers at $20K. The difference is focus, modern tools, and AI-assisted development. Same quality output, fraction of the cost.
Do you offer payment plans?
MVP projects are typically split 50% upfront and 50% at launch. For fractional CTO retainers, we bill monthly. Consulting is billed hourly after each session.
What if the project scope changes?
The $20K price covers the agreed MVP scope. If you want to add features during development, we can discuss adding them to a Phase 2 at a separate cost. No mid-project price increases on the original scope.
