Plain answers about what custom software costs in Dubai, how long it takes, and how a fixed price changes the decision.
How much does an MVP cost in Dubai?
Studios in Dubai publish MVP prices from AED 36,750 to AED 220,200, and the lowest fixed price named in public is AED 15,000. The First 72 costs AED 4,500 and returns a first version within 72 hours.
How long does it take to build a software prototype in Dubai?
Published timelines in Dubai run from four to fourteen weeks, and the discovery phase alone is quoted at 1 to 4 weeks. The First 72 returns a high-fidelity prototype, a technical scope and a fixed build quotation within 72 hours.
Fixed price or hourly rate: which fits a first version?
A fixed price holds the estimate risk with the studio; an hourly rate keeps it with the buyer. For a first version, where the scope is still being discovered, a fixed price is what keeps the decision small enough to make alone.
What does a software prototype include?
A prototype worth paying for arrives with three things beside it: the technical scope that describes how it gets built, a fixed quotation for building it, and a review where all of it is walked through. The First 72 delivers those four within 72 hours for AED 4,500.
Can a first version of custom software arrive in 72 hours?
Yes, when the deliverable is defined before the clock starts. The First 72 returns a high-fidelity prototype, a technical scope and a fixed build quotation within 72 hours, and the deadline sits in the service agreement rather than in a proposal.
How do you choose a software company in Dubai?
A website shows what a studio can write about itself, and every studio writes the same things. The one signal that survives contact with reality is a piece of paid work small enough to buy on a decision rather than on a proposal.
No-code or custom software for a first version?
No-code wins when the product is a familiar shape — a booking form, a directory, a simple shop — and the goal is to be live this week. Custom software wins the moment the product is the thing that makes the business different, because that part is precisely what a template already decided for you.
What do you write when you brief a software studio?
One sentence describing the software and who will use it. The brief a studio can start from is the one a founder can write in a minute — the specification is the studio's job, and asking a buyer to produce it is asking them to do the work they came to buy.
