Pricing

Clear pricing for funded founders. No hidden fees. No surprises.

How CTO DAVE compares: A typical dev agency charges $150K-$300K for what we deliver at $20K in 8 weeks. A full-time CTO costs $250K+ per year. A fractional CTO from CTO DAVE gives you the same strategic oversight at a fraction of the cost.

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.
