Hi! I'm here to scope your MVP. What problem does your app solve?

Founder

I need a marketplace for dog walkers. Owners book walks, walkers get paid through the app.

F
P

Got it. Will users pay each other directly (like Uber) or just pay you (like Netflix)?

Founder

They pay each other. We take a 15% commission.

WHAT ACTUALLY SHIPS

~$18k

In delivered value

Most MVP Budgets Are Wasted on Rebuilding.

The real cost isn't development—it's miscommunication, rework, and doing the same work twice.

You explain your idea once—but it is rewritten, reinterpreted, and rebuilt multiple times. By the time your requirements reach code, clarity is lost—so timelines slip, budgets inflate, and features you never asked for get built. This is why so many founders pay twice before they ever launch.

Translation loss every handoff

Rebuild triggered by late feedback

You pay for code twice—before launch

Here are the three traps that keep founders stuck in this rebuild loop.

🎨

The Design Trap

Overbuilt features because 'more is safer'

What you said:

"I need user profiles with basic info."

What they built:

A social graph with followers, badges, gamification, and custom avatars.

The cost:

4 extra weeks. $8k wasted. Features you'll delete in v2.

🏗️

The Build Trap

Wrong architecture choices—built for scale before validation

What you needed:

A working MVP to test the market in 30 days.

What they built:

A microservices architecture with Kubernetes that takes 6 months to deploy.

The cost:

5 months lost. Market opportunity missed. Competitor shipped first.

🔄

The Feedback Trap

You only see the product after 6 weeks and it's not what you needed

What you expected:

Weekly check-ins and early previews to course-correct.

What actually happened:

Radio silence for 6 weeks. Then a demo of something that's not what you described.

The cost:

Full rebuild required. Another 6 weeks. Double the timeline and budget.

Build Faster. Spend Less. No Risk Upfront.

We automate scoping and boilerplate code, eliminate translation loss, and validate early—so you only pay for code that becomes real product.

From Idea to PRD in Minutes — Not Weeks.

Instead of spending 2–3 weeks explaining requirements to multiple people, you define your product once with our AI Scoping Bot. It produces a PRD in your words—validated same day. The builder who hears your idea is the one who architects the solution.

Bot Chat

🚀 We eliminate the scoping delay.

Stop Paying for Generic Code.

AI scaffolds the repetitive engineering work—auth modules, CRUD, database schemas, forms, and integration templates—using our Golden Repo. Developers focus purely on your business logic, not reinventing login screens.

// AI Generated

auth.ts
schema.sql
forms.tsx

// Your Logic

business.ts
custom.tsx
flows.ts

💰 You stop funding boilerplate.

Traditional scoping + boilerplate ≈ 30% of MVP cost.

You Approve Before We Build — Not After.

Weekly approval gates mean we validate the product every seven days. Miscommunication is caught when it's cheap to fix—not after six weeks of development.

🛡 Miscommunication is resolved early, not rebuilt later.

From rebuild loops to straight-line delivery.

Built for Founders — Not Agencies.

Agencies drag timelines. Freelancers disappear. No-code hits limits. DIY is slow.
PGRAM combines AI speed, human judgment, and true ownership — from Day 1.

Agencies

Speed to Launch: 60-90 days
Upfront Cost: $30k-$50k
Reliability / Ghosting: High (contracts)
Scalability: Built for scale (often over-engineered)
True Ownership: You own code

Freelancers

Speed to Launch: 30-60 days (if no ghosting)
Upfront Cost: $5k-$20k
Reliability / Ghosting: Low (ghosting common)
Scalability: Depends on skill
True Ownership: You own (if you can find them)

No-Code/Low-Code

Speed to Launch: 7-30 days (simple apps)
Upfront Cost: $0-$500/mo
Reliability / Ghosting: Platform stable
Scalability: Hits limits at 1k-10k users
True Ownership: Locked in platform forever

DIY AI Tools

Speed to Launch: 1-7 days (prototype only)
Upfront Cost: Free (your time)
Reliability / Ghosting: You're the bottleneck
Scalability: Breaks under load
True Ownership: You own (but unmaintainable)

PGRAM

Speed to Launch: 30 days
Upfront Cost: $10k
Reliability / Ghosting: High (productized, SLAs)
Scalability: Scales to 100k+ users
True Ownership: 100% ownership, GitHub Day 1

Here's what this new model means for you as a founder:

Fixed Price. Aligned Incentives.

Agencies make more when timelines stretch. We win only when your product ships — fast.

One price. One goal. One launch date.

AI Speed, Human Judgment.

AI handles repetitive work. Senior developers validate architecture — so you get speed without stupidity.

AI for efficiency. Experts for trust.

You Own Everything. Day One.

GitHub repo, infrastructure, deployment rights. No platform lock-in, no proprietary trap.

Fire us Day 31 — your users won't know.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about The Program

You describe your idea in plain English (takes ~15 minutes). The bot asks clarifying questions, then generates a detailed PRD (Product Requirements Document) with features that fit in 30 days and ~$10k budget. You get an itemized quote before paying anything. It's completely free.

Before the 30-day clock starts, you go through Phase 0 (Discovery): - 15-minute AI scoping session (free) - You receive a detailed PRD document - 30-45 minute call with our Human Architect to review and refine - You get your final itemized quote Only after you approve the scope do you sign the contract, pay, and start the 30-day countdown.

The bot proposes a core MVP that fits the budget and timeline, then marks additional features as 'optional' (adds time/cost). You can: - Launch the core MVP in 30 days - Add optional features later via Support Plans or Scale Program - Or increase the initial scope (budget becomes $12k-$15k, timeline extends to 35-40 days)

Most projects are $10k-$12k depending on module selection. The bot shows you exact pricing for your specific features upfront. If you need premium modules (like enterprise auth or complex marketplace payments), it might be $12k-$15k, but you'll know before signing the contract.

Two options: - Option A: 100% upfront (get 5% discount = $9,500) - Option B: 60% upfront ($6k), 40% on Day 30 before code handover ($4k) We use digital contracts and accept bank transfer, credit card, or wire transfer.

Yes. You get: - Full GitHub repo ownership transferred on Day 30 - No proprietary frameworks or vendor lock-in - Complete deployment access (Vercel/AWS credentials in your name) - All environment variables and API keys You can fire us on Day 31 and hire anyone to maintain your app.

Minor UX tweaks during Week 1 (Blueprint Phase) are free. Major scope changes after Week 1 will extend the timeline or incur extra fees. We'll never surprise you—any change request gets a transparent quote before we proceed.

We've delivered 50+ MVPs on time. If we're delayed due to our capacity issues (not your scope changes), we don't charge extra and continue working until it's done. If you change scope mid-project, we'll update the timeline transparently.

Modern, mainstream JavaScript: - Frontend: Next.js 15, React 19, Tailwind CSS - Backend: Node.js with TypeScript - Database: PostgreSQL (Supabase or Neon) - Mobile: React Native (if needed) No exotic languages. Easy to hire for. Massive ecosystem.

Yes. Every MVP includes a basic admin dashboard so you can: - View/edit users and data - Test your business logic - Monitor key metrics - Manage content without touching code Think of it as your MVP's control center.

Standard exclusions: - Custom native iOS/Android apps (we can do React Native or PWAs) - AI/ML model training (we can integrate existing APIs like OpenAI) - Complex video processing or real-time streaming - Blockchain/Web3 features - Enterprise SSO (SAML, Okta) If your MVP needs these, we'll quote them separately or recommend alternatives.

Optional monthly retainers after Day 30: - Essential ($999/mo): Bug fixes, monitoring, minor tweaks - Growth ($1,999/mo): + Small feature additions, A/B tests, analytics - Premium ($2,499/mo): + Dedicated Slack channel, priority support No long-term contracts. Cancel anytime with 30-day notice.

For startups with funding who need: - Multi-platform apps (web + iOS + Android) - Team augmentation (we become your interim CTO + dev team) - 3-6 month roadmap execution - Advanced infrastructure (CI/CD, staging, monitoring) Graduates often transition to HCode (our venture studio model) for ongoing product development.

Yes. We've built 50+ MVPs across: - SaaS tools (project management, analytics dashboards) - Marketplaces (two-sided platforms, booking systems) - Social apps (community forums, content sharing) - Fintech (payment processing, invoice management) Request our portfolio during your Discovery call.

Custom features are quoted separately at $150/hour. But before paying extra: 1. We'll check if a simpler Golden Repo module can solve it 2. We'll suggest phasing it to post-launch (via Support Plans) 3. If it's truly essential, we'll scope it upfront so there are no surprises.

Yes. We deploy your MVP to: - Vercel (frontend) - Your choice of database provider (Supabase, Neon, etc.) - Set up DNS and SSL certificates You own all accounts. Hosting costs are separate (~$20-$50/month initially).

Every MVP includes: - Manual QA testing by our team - Cross-browser compatibility (Chrome, Safari, Firefox) - Mobile responsiveness testing - Basic security checks (authentication, data validation) We don't provide automated test suites in the base package, but can add them for an extra fee.

Absolutely. You get: - Week 1: Design review and approval gate - Week 2-3: Mid-build progress check-in - Week 4: Final review before handover - Async Slack updates (2-3x per week) You're not in the dark. You see progress in real-time.

We have a 30-day money-back guarantee IF: - We didn't deliver the approved scope - The code doesn't work as specified - We ghosted you (no updates for 7+ days) If you simply changed your mind about the product idea, refunds don't apply (but we'll help you pivot the MVP if possible).

Three steps: 1. Click 'Start Free Scoping' and chat with our AI bot (~15 min) 2. Get your PRD and itemized quote (free) 3. Book a call with our Human Architect to refine and confirm No pressure. No credit card required. You only pay after approving the final scope.
