Software development pricing in about a minute: a fixed-price discovery sprint, typical web app MVP costs, blended hourly rates, weekly demos and full code ownership.
Read the transcript
Software projects have a reputation. Budgets explode, deadlines slip, and months pass before you see anything that works. Cendien builds it differently. Every project starts with a fixed-price discovery sprint, nine thousand five hundred to twelve thousand five hundred dollars, that turns your idea into requirements, a prototype and a firm quote. A first release of a web app, an MVP, typically runs forty-five to ninety thousand. Development is billed at a blended one hundred twenty-five to one hundred fifty dollars an hour. You see working software every week, and you own all the code. Our development cost calculator lets you choose the type of project, features, integrations and user roles, and estimates the cost instantly. Cendien. Building software from Carrollton, Texas, since 1999. Price your project at cendien dot com.

Every integration documented with owners and schedules.
API development
REST and SOAP APIs, webhooks and secure file transfer.

What drives the cost of software development services
Features and screens
Every feature needs design, code and tests. Starting with an MVP keeps the first release affordable.
Integrations
Connecting to ERP, payment or government systems is often the largest single cost.
Roles and security
More user roles mean more permissions, screens and testing.
Compliance
Accessibility (WCAG) and security testing add time but are required for public-facing systems.
Development packages
Every engagement includes a U.S.-based project manager, weekly demos, automated testing and full ownership of your source code.
