Development Plan & Payment Structure
We propose a four-phase development plan with a total budget of USD 100,000. The payment structure is as follows:
- Deposit: 10% of the total amount, paid upfront.
- Phase Payments: Once each phase is completed and approved, payment for the next phase is released:
- Phase 1: 20%
- Phase 2: 30%
- Phase 3: 40%
Refund Policy: After each phase is completed, if the deliverables do not meet the agreed-upon requirements, you can request a full refund of the deposit (10%). This ensures peace of mind and shared confidence in the project’s success.
Estimated Timeline edit
While the overall project duration is expected to be around 4 months, each phase has its own estimated duration:
- Phase 1: Research & Planning (2–4 weeks)
- Goals:
- Clarify project requirements
- Select technology stack
- Establish initial design flow and create prototypes
- Outcome: A clear project roadmap with well-defined functional requirements and initial prototypes.
- Goals:
- Phase 2: Prototype/MVP Development (2–3 months)
- Goals:
- Implement core features:
- Image upload
- Background removal
- Basic copywriting generation
- Sharing functionality
- Develop a minimal viable product (MVP) to test feasibility
- Implement core features:
- Outcome: A functioning MVP that validates critical assumptions and demonstrates core functionalities.
- Goals:
- Phase 3: Iterative Improvements (2 months)
- Goals:
- Enhance AI capabilities
- Add editing tools
- Improve UI/UX interactions
- Integrate subscription and trial logic
- Implement basic data analytics
- Outcome: A refined version of the MVP with improved performance, user experience, and monetization features.
- Goals:
- Phase 4: Beta Release (4–6 weeks)
- Goals:
- Conduct targeted beta testing in specific regions or user groups
- Gather feedback and fix issues
- Finalize deployment and prepare marketing materials
- Outcome: A polished beta version ready for a broader launch, complete with a clear deployment strategy and promotional plan.
- Goals:
Next Steps edit
- Contract & Deposit: Sign the development contract and pay the 10% deposit to initiate Phase 1.
- Phase-by-Phase Approval: At the completion of each phase, you will have the opportunity to review and approve the deliverables. If satisfied, payment for the next phase will be released, allowing work to proceed.
- Flexible Collaboration: We will work closely with you throughout each phase to incorporate feedback and ensure the product aligns with your vision.
