How much does custom software cost?

Custom software typically costs $10,000–$100,000+ depending on complexity.

A simple internal tool or dashboard runs $10,000–$25,000. A mid-complexity web application with user authentication, database, and integrations costs $25,000–$75,000. Enterprise-grade software with advanced features, multiple user roles, and complex integrations exceeds $75,000. The cost depends on feature count, design complexity, integrations needed, and development timeline. Starting with an MVP (minimum viable product) for $10,000–$30,000 lets you validate the concept before investing in a full build.
