The founders received three agency quotes between €122k and €148k, each with time-and-materials clauses that left the final cost open.
With runway tied to the next funding round, an overrun of even a few weeks would have put the company at risk.
01
Two days to cut the MVP to the features investors and first users actually needed.
02
A fixed price per feature, so the founders could see — and choose — exactly what they paid for.
03
A working build every Friday, reviewed with the founders and their first pilot clinics.
04
Production launch in week 11, with documentation and a fixed monthly maintenance plan.
