That’s like 4 SV devs working a year.

And just in salaries, not including payroll taxes, office space, admins, QAs, etc.

850k sounds eminently reasonable for such an undertaking in such a short period of time.

That's what I'm saying, it's the 11M that's not reasonable...

I wasn't intending on disputing your statement but merely adding to it. Apologies if it came across that way.

We had a team of great devs and designers who worked on this. What most would consider “par for the course” in relation to an MVP startup for instance.
