How much does a SaaS MVP cost to build?

A realistic SaaS MVP with authentication, billing, a core feature set and an admin panel typically costs $8,000 to $25,000 with an experienced solo developer. Agencies quote two to four times that for the same scope. Ruthless scope-cutting is the biggest cost lever you control.
