— Methodology

The five delivery buckets use typical 2026 price ranges for a B2B SaaS MVP: no-code self-build ($0–$5k), freelance developer ($5k–$15k), fixed-price studio ($9k–$25k), traditional dev agency ($40k–$150k+), in-house team ($80k–$300k+).

The composite scope score (0–100) weights auth, billing, AI features, core flow count, design polish, and compliance posture. Higher scope scores push estimates toward the top of each bucket's range; lower scope scores toward the bottom.

The “best fit” recommendation encodes editorial guidance from the cost research: which delivery model is the right call given the scope you've described, not just the cheapest. Compliance work, AI features, and high flow counts shift the recommendation toward a fixed-price studio or a traditional agency.
