The product your users touch
Web app, mobile-friendly checkout or a native Android app when the product needs hardware, like a kiosk. Built for the real user, who is usually in a hurry and on a phone.
MVP & SaaS Development
Most MVPs fail on the parts nobody demos: payments that need refunds, an admin side to run the business, and a deploy process that doesn't break on launch day. I build the whole product, not just the screens: the app your customers use, the dashboard your customers' customers see, and the admin console you run sales and support from. Snaprint, a self-service print kiosk SaaS, went from first commit to paying customers in four months this way.
01
What goes into your MVP
Payments that hold up
Razorpay or Stripe with webhook-confirmed orders, server-side price checks, refunds and GST-ready invoices, so money never depends on a browser callback.
Dashboards and an admin console
A customer dashboard for the people who pay you, and an internal console for your team: users, orders, support actions and an audit log.
Launch-ready infrastructure
Separate staging and production, automated checks before every release, monitoring and backups, on Cloudflare, Vercel or your own servers.

Running costs (paid by you, at cost)
Paid by you, directly to the providers, so you own every account. Most MVPs run on free tiers until they have real traffic.
| Hosting (Vercel or Cloudflare) | ₹0 at launch, ₹1,500–4,000/month as you grow |
| Database | ₹0–2,000/month |
| Domain | ≈ ₹75/month |
| Payment gateway (Razorpay standard plan) | about 2% per transaction |
| Transactional email and SMS | ₹0–1,000/month at low volume |

What I design for
These are the problems that came up on real projects, and the ones I plan for before writing code.
Scope that fits the deadline
We cut the MVP to the one flow that proves people will pay, and list everything else as phase two. A smaller product that ships beats a big one that doesn't.
Money is never wrong
Prices are checked on the server, orders are confirmed by webhook, and every refund has a reason. The payment bugs that cost founders the most are designed out from the start.
Running the business, not just the app
Admin tools, support actions and a sales pipeline are part of the MVP, so you are not running the company from a spreadsheet and the database console.
Handover you can hire around
Typed code, tests, written docs and a repo layout a second developer can pick up, so you are never locked in to me.
05
Tools I use
- TypeScript
- Next.js
- Vite
- Kotlin (Android)
- Python
- Cloudflare Workers
- D1 / PostgreSQL
- Razorpay
- Vercel
- Docker
06
Is it a fit?
A good fit for founders with a validated idea and a budget for a real first version, especially products with payments, a marketplace or hardware side, or an operations team that needs its own console.
Not a fit if you need a pixel-perfect design agency or a team of ten on day one. I build lean, with one or two developers, and bring in design help when the product needs it.

MVP development FAQ
How long does an MVP take?
Most MVPs need 6–12 weeks for the first paying version. Snaprint had paying customers about three months after the first commit, including an Android app and payments.
How much does MVP development cost in India?
Freelancers usually quote ₹2–6 lakh and agencies ₹6–20 lakh for a SaaS MVP. My MVP builds start from ₹4 lakh, after a discovery sprint from ₹50,000 that ends in a fixed written quote, so you know the total before the build starts.
Do I own the code?
Yes. The code lives in your GitHub and the servers sit in your cloud accounts from day one.
Can you also handle DevOps and launch?
Yes. Deployment, staging and production environments, monitoring and backups are part of the build, not an extra project. See DevOps consulting for larger setups.
Do you build the admin side too?
Yes, and I recommend it. An admin console for users, orders, refunds and support is part of the MVP, so you are not running the business from the database console.
