How much does mobile app development cost in Canada?
Mobile app development in Canada typically costs between $25,000 and $70,000 for a standard iOS or Android app. A cross-platform React Native app with similar features is generally 20–30% less. Apps with complex features like AI, real-time sync, or payment processing can cost $70,000–$150,000+.
How much does SaaS development cost?
Building a SaaS platform typically costs between $40,000 and $150,000 depending on features such as multi-tenancy, subscription billing, API access, admin dashboards, and third-party integrations. An MVP version of a SaaS product can be built for $15,000–$40,000 in 8–14 weeks.
How long does it take to build a web application?
A simple web application or MVP takes 8–14 weeks. A mid-complexity app with authentication, dashboards, and third-party integrations takes 3–5 months. Enterprise web applications typically take 5–9 months. Timeline depends on team size, feature scope, and integration complexity.
How accurate is this estimate?
The ranges are based on industry benchmarks and our experience across 200+ projects. They provide a realistic ballpark — actual costs depend on your specific requirements, integrations, and design complexity. Contact us for a precise quote.
What's included in the cost?
The estimate covers design, development, QA testing, and project management. It does not include ongoing hosting, third-party API costs, or post-launch support unless agreed separately.
Why does timeline affect price?
Faster timelines require more parallel developers working simultaneously, which increases cost. Longer timelines allow for a smaller, more efficient team — reducing overall budget.
Do you work with startups and SMBs?
Yes. We work with early-stage startups through to enterprise companies. Our flexible engagement models — fixed price, time & material, and dedicated team — are designed to match any budget and project stage.
