Build & ship · 8–16 weeks
A first version that doesn't need a second.
Most MVPs are thrown away at Series A. Yours won't be. You launch on the architecture that scales, built by the team that runs over a dozen platforms in production.

8–16 weeks · fixed scope
Most projects begin here. Your final quote is scoped to your needs on a 30-minute call, and can land higher for a more ambitious build.
What a throwaway MVP really costs
The rewrite tax
Cheap MVP code becomes the most expensive line item in the company once traffic arrives.
Launch-night outages
The moment you finally have attention, fragile infrastructure spends it for you.
A team that vanishes
Most agencies hand over a codebase and disappear the day the real questions start.
Live, scalable, and still standing at Series A.
In eight to sixteen weeks you have a product real users sign into, on infrastructure that carries you from first customer to funding round without a rebuild.
Built for a specific moment.
- You have a validated idea and need a first version users can sign into
- You're raising, or about to, and the product has to hold up under scrutiny
- You refuse to pay for the same software twice
Straight talk · If the idea isn't validated yet, a Discovery Sprint first will save you far more than it costs. If you only need a prototype shipped, that's Vibe-Deploy.
What you walk away with
A product users sign into
Full UX/UI, web and mobile, backend and APIs, production-grade from the first commit.
Infrastructure that scales
Zero-downtime deploys, automated backups and observability on Devpilot, included.
Proof for investors
A real product with real users. The difference between a guess and a round.
30 days of hypercare
We stay on after launch through the month that decides whether a product wins or rots.
No mystery. Just the plan.
Weeks 1–2
Scope & design
Strategy, design system and developer-ready UX, signed off before code starts.
Weeks 3–12
Build
Two-week sprints, weekly demos in your timezone, production code from day one.
Weeks 13–16
Launch
QA, security review, observability, go-live, and we're on-call with you on launch night.
"We launched on the architecture Techies Africa built and never touched it again. Eighteen months and a Series A later, it still hasn't needed a rewrite."
Fixed scope. Fixed price. Full ownership.
50% on kickoff, 50% on launch, and complete IP transfer on final payment. No proprietary frameworks, no lock-in, no surprise invoices.
The questions we always get.
Why won't this MVP need a rewrite?
How do payments work?
What happens after launch?
Build it once. Build it right.
