How much would you budget for this?

I am actually curious, because on the other hand you would have all the constraints like development in less than 3 months, need for the app to be waterproof in a legal sense (data protection), additional backend development and also development for both iOS and Android.

this is one of those cases where people on here will look through the github repo and say "how could this cost 20 mil?? I could build that..."

maybe they can build a toy version, like everyone else.
