Question 1

How much does a marketplace app cost in 2026?

Accepted Answer

$12K–$22K, 5–8 weeks. A two-sided marketplace is two products sharing one database: the side that lists and the side that buys. At Codeks that is a Product Build, $12K–$22K fixed, five to eight weeks. The number here is how that band is reached.

Question 2

How much does a booking app cost in 2026?

Accepted Answer

$5K fixed, 2–4 weeks. A booking app is a calendar, a form and a payment. For one business with one calendar it is the clearest $5K MVP Sprint there is: live in two to four weeks, deployed on your accounts. Several providers or locations make it a Product Build.

Question 3

How much does a fitness app cost in 2026?

Accepted Answer

$15K–$25K, 6–8 weeks. A fitness app lives on a phone, sells a subscription and has to be worth opening every day. That makes it a Product Build: $15K–$25K fixed, six to eight weeks, iOS and Android from one codebase. Month6, built here and on the App Store, is the reference.

Question 4

How much does an EV charging app cost in 2026?

Accepted Answer

$18K–$25K, 6–8 weeks, or 2–4 on Codeks Charge. A charging app is a map, a live session and a payment, talking to chargers over OCPP. Built from scratch it is a Product Build at the top of the band, $18K–$25K, six to eight weeks. Deployed on Codeks Charge, the white-label platform built here, it is faster and lands lower.

Question 5

How much does a SaaS MVP cost in 2026?

Accepted Answer

$5K fixed, 2–4 weeks. A software-as-a-service MVP is a login, one job done well and a subscription. That is exactly what the $5K MVP Sprint is shaped around: a web app with auth, one core flow and Stripe, live in two to four weeks on your own accounts.

Question 6

How much does an event management app cost in 2026?

Accepted Answer

$10K–$18K, 4–6 weeks. Event software is three products in one: discovery for participants, registration with payment, and the organiser's desk where entries, schedules and results live. On the web with an admin it is a Product Build at the low end, $10K–$18K, four to six weeks.

Question 7

How much does a food delivery app cost in 2026?

Accepted Answer

$20K–$25K, About 8 weeks. A delivery app is three apps and a dispatcher: the customer orders, the restaurant accepts, the courier moves, and the system assigns and tracks all of it live. Version one is a Product Build at the top of the band, $20K–$25K, about eight weeks, and it should be far smaller than the apps it is compared with.

Question 8

How much does an AI app cost to build in 2026?

Accepted Answer

$5K–$20K, 2–8 weeks. An app with a model in it costs what the app costs, plus the work of making the model reliable. A single AI feature inside a web app is a $5K MVP Sprint. A product whose core job is the model, across web and mobile, is a Product Build, $10K–$20K. Here is where the line is.
