Questions founders ask

How accurate is this calculator?

It gives the range most startups pay for work like yours, from the same figures as our cost guides. Your own number depends on things only a conversation shows, like what’s already built and how soon you need it.

Does it include building the product?

No. These are design costs only: research, the user experience, the screens and the files your developers build from. Development is a separate budget.

Why is the range so wide?

Because the answers multiply each other. More screens, more kinds of users and more extras each add work, and two products of the same size can need very different amounts of thinking.

Is this what Airform charges?

No, it’s a market range, not our quote. We give you our own number after a short call, once we know what you need.

How can I lower the cost?

Start with fewer screens and one platform, build with the component library your developers already use, and leave a full design system for later. Spend the design time on the few flows people use most.
