Every project has a fixed price from $80K-$250K based on scope. We handle compliance like SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS out of the box. Our engineers are senior only - no juniors.

What makes a startup software consultant affordable
Affordable does not mean cheap. It means you pay for exactly what you need, on a fixed budget, with no hidden costs.
IRPR prices every project in the Roadmap phase (week 2). You get a fixed quote and a payment schedule tied to milestones. There is no hourly billing and no scope creep.
Our engineers average 10+ years of experience. They ship faster, write cleaner code, and need less oversight. That makes them affordable for startups that cannot waste time on rework.
The difference between a generic shop and IRPR
Not all software consultants deliver the same value. Here is what separates IRPR from the rest.
Generic development shops often staff juniors, bill hourly, and change requirements mid-project. That is expensive for startups that need speed and predictability.
IRPR uses senior engineers only, works on a fixed price, and freezes scope at the Roadmap phase. No surprises, no delays.
- Junior developers learning your stack
- Hourly billing that blows the budget
- Scope changes without re-quote
- No compliance experience
- Delayed communication across timezones
- Code you cannot maintain after handoff
- Senior engineers with 10+ years each
- Fixed price agreed at week 2
- Scope locked in Roadmap phase
- SOC2, HIPAA, PCI built in
- Async-first with daily overlap (ET to IST)
- Full source code ownership in your repo
How our engagement works for startup software development
From idea to launch in four predictable phases.
Every project follows the same framework: Idea, Roadmap, Product, Release. You know exactly what you get at each step and how much it costs.
We start with a discovery call to understand your market, users, and constraints. Then we deliver a working MVP that you can show investors and customers.
What ships with every startup project
Everything you need to run your product from day one, included in the fixed price.
No extra fees for deployment, security, or documentation. Every project includes the following deliverables.
- Source code in your private GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions or GitLab
- Staging and production environments on AWS
- Sentry error tracking with alerts
- Database backups and encryption at rest
- API documentation (auto-generated with Swagger)
- Unit and integration tests (80%+ coverage)
- User authentication (Auth0 or Firebase)
- Deployment runbook for your team
- One month of post-launch support

Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly
Every project gets a fixed quote in the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges. You know the total cost before a line of code is written.
Senior engineers only
Our team averages 10+ years of experience. We do not staff juniors on client projects. That means faster delivery, fewer bugs, and less handholding.
Compliance built in from day one
We handle SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and FERPA as part of every engagement. No separate compliance consulting fees. Your product is audit-ready from launch.
8-12 week MVPs that ship
We delivered 200+ products, most in under 12 weeks. Our process is designed for speed: no over-engineering, no endless meetings, just shipped code.
Full code ownership
You own all source code, documentation, and infrastructure from day one. No licensing fees, no vendor lock-in. Your developers can take over immediately.
Async-first, results-driven
We work across timezones with daily overlap (Eastern Time to India Standard Time). You get daily updates via Slack and live demos every two weeks. No micromanagement needed.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
