The Crowbotics Estimate Calculator helps you estimate your development cost for building a web or mobile application.
The estimate figures provided will be a conservative range, most useful as a starting point for evaluating further cost and feature tradeoffs. Every application is different, and the ultimate cost of development, with Crowdbotics or otherwise, depends on a variety of factors. Completion of the calculator takes about 3 minutes. At the end of this calculator, you will be provided with a ballpark estimate of the approximate cost to build your application and the option to speak with a Crowdbotics Expert about the specifics of your build in greater detail for free. This is the best way to further fine-tune your total, whether you choose to build with Crowdbotics or not.
What It’s Like to Build An App with Crowdbotics Pro Services
Managed app development with Crowdbotics isn’t a typical outsourced development experience. It’s a hands-on collaboration between you and our dedicated team of experts to plan, design, build, and release your app at the highest possible quality and on your preferred timeline. As soon as we receive your estimate results, our sales team will reach out to schedule a brief scoping call. This call will dig a little deeper into the information you’ve submitted and ensure that we have a clear sense of what you’d like to build. Once we clearly understand your build plan, we’ll send you a detailed proposal explaining the full scope of work to be delivered. From there, we will assign a product manager and team of developers who will work with you every step of the way. You’ll enjoy daily and weekly check-ins until your app is live, and ongoing support and iteration from there.
What Makes Crowdbotics Different?
Our process leverages a simple truth about software development: most new applications look like applications that have been built before. That’s not to say that there are no new app ideas. Rather, it means that no matter how unique or revolutionary your idea is, there are fundamental best practices that are used by developers across the globe to build leading applications. Rather than reinvent the wheel for each new app, our platform offers a growing catalog of prebuilt app features and product specs for you to pull right off the shelf.
This enables us to assemble the basic structure of your application rapidly, leaving more time for customization and fine-tuning.
