MVP Build

An idea, taken all the way to a launched product.

Not a prototype that falls over the first time somebody real uses it. A product with login, payments, tests, and monitoring, live and yours.

The short answer

How much does an MVP cost, and what do you get?

A real MVP from Continuum starts at $15,000, fixed once scoped. You get a launched product with login, payments, tests, and monitoring from day one, and you own the code from the first commit.

Most builds get to eighty percent and stop.

Auth that is not really auth

A login form that looks right but does not actually protect what is behind it.

Payments stuck in test mode

A checkout that works in the demo and has never once taken a real card.

No tests, so the second feature breaks the first

Every new thing you add quietly breaks something that used to work.

Nothing watching it

No monitoring, so the first time you hear it is down is from a user.

What you get, from day one.

These are not a phase two.

Login that holds

Real authentication and sessions, the kind that stands up to someone trying to get past it.

Payments that clear

Live checkout that has taken real money, with the failure cases handled.

Tests where they matter

Coverage on the parts that would cost you if they broke, so changes stop being scary.

Monitoring from launch

You find out something is wrong before your users do.

The code, in your name

Your repo, your accounts, from the first commit. No lock-in.

Fixed price, agreed before anything is built.

Six to twelve weeks, start to launched.

01

Scope

We agree exactly what the first version is, and I give you a fixed price before anything is built.

02

Build

I build it, in the open, over six to twelve weeks, with the hard parts done first.

03

Launch

It goes live with login, payments, tests, and monitoring already in place.

The last one

The last build went from a founder’s notes to an app in the App Store.

FAQ

Questions I get asked

How much does an MVP cost?
From $15,000, fixed once scoped. The number is agreed before any work starts, so there is no hourly meter and no surprise at the end. What you get for it is a launched product with login, payments, tests, and monitoring, not a prototype.
How long does it take?
Six to twelve weeks for most builds, depending on scope. The hard parts, auth, payments, and the data model, get done first, not left to the end where they usually blow up a timeline.
Do I own the code?
Yes, from the first commit. It lives in your repo and your accounts. There is no lock-in and nothing to buy back later.
What is not included?
Marketing, ad spend, and content. I build and launch the product. Once it is live, Get Users is the separate service that works on bringing people to it.

From $15,000, fixed once scoped. Tell me what you are trying to build. If it is smaller than an MVP Build, I will say so, and point you at the cheaper thing that fixes it.
