MVP development in Switzerland – at a fixed price

Fixed price with a fixed scope – no surprises in the quote

Every decivo quote contains a scope fixed in writing: what's included is in black and white — and so is what isn't. The fixed price applies to exactly that scope.

The warning about "fixed prices without a defined scope" is justified — a fixed price without a fixed scope is just hidden risk. That's why we cut every project into clearly delimited modules with defined deliverables. If requirements change, a new module with its own quote is created instead of an open invoice. For comparison: Swiss agency rates typically run at 120–170 CHF per hour — with an open scope, the budget grows with every iteration.

FAQ — MVP development in Switzerland

What does it cost to have an MVP developed in Switzerland?

With traditional Swiss agencies an MVP typically runs between CHF 30'000 and 250'000. decivo works with fixed package prices: clickable prototype CHF 3'500, code MVP CHF 12'500, further development in loops from CHF 1'350 per sprint — all prices excl. VAT. Our MVP cost calculator works out the exact price for your scope.

How long does MVP development take?

Considerably shorter than traditional builds: with AI-accelerated implementation and human validation, our modules deliver in days instead of weeks and a code MVP in weeks instead of months. We fix the concrete timeline for your scope in the quote — as realistic planning, not a marketing promise.

What is the difference between a clickable prototype and a code MVP?

The clickable prototype (CHF 3'500) is an interactive Figma design without code: you test the idea, flow and user reactions before investing in development. The code MVP (CHF 12'500) is a real web application with login, database and your core feature — production-ready, documented and handover-able.

Why a fixed price instead of hourly rates — and what happens when the scope changes?

Swiss agency rates typically run at 120–170 CHF per hour — with an open scope, the budget grows uncontrollably. Our fixed price applies to a scope fixed in writing in the quote. If requirements change, that becomes a new, clearly cut module with its own quote — never an open invoice.

You're based in Germany — does that work for a Swiss company?

Yes. Our base in Laufenburg (Baden) sits directly on the border with the Fricktal in the canton of Aargau — the Swiss Laufenburg is on the other side of the Rhine bridge. On-site meetings in the Fricktal, Aargau and northwestern Switzerland are short trips, we work in the same time zone, and we set up quotes and invoicing to fit the Swiss market — prices in CHF, excl. VAT.

Do I own the code and the intellectual property of the MVP?

Yes, completely. You receive the full source code, the repositories, the design and the documentation. There is no lock-in: your internal team, another agency or decivo itself can continue building cleanly at any time.

Can decivo take over and further develop my existing Lovable, Bolt or no-code app?

Yes. That's exactly what our Vibe Code Rescue Scan is for: it checks your existing app for security, data protection and production-readiness, free of charge. We then handle hardening, further development or — where necessary — a clean rebuild, each at a fixed price with a fixed scope.

What happens after the MVP launch?

You decide freely: further development in fixed loops with decivo (UX Validation Loop CHF 1'350 per sprint, Prototype Loop CHF 4'500 per sprint) or a complete handover to your team. Code, documentation and repos are yours — every follow-up decision stays with you.
