AI MVP development for Perth: fixed scope, fixed price, working software

AI MVP Development in Perth
Fixed scope · weekly demos · you own the stack
The old way
An MVP quoted like an enterprise project
The Cipher way
A scoped MVP in users' hands in six to ten weeks
An MVP built to survive its first users
AI where it creates value, production infrastructure from day one, and the boring parts done properly.
AI-native product features
LLM features, agents, RAG search and automation built into the product where they create real user value, with evals, guardrails and costs understood up front.
Production cloud from day one
Deployed to your own AWS account with CI/CD, monitoring and backups. An MVP you can scale, not a prototype you rebuild.
The stack that fits, not the stack we resell
Next.js, FastAPI, Expo or Flutter; Weaviate or Qdrant; OpenAI, Anthropic or open-weight models, chosen for your product the way our published comparisons are written.
The boring parts done properly
Auth, billing, admin, analytics and security basics included in scope: the unglamorous 40% that decides whether an MVP survives first contact with users.
How it works
A fixed-scope sprint, demoed weekly
01
Scope sprint
We cut your idea down to the smallest product worth shipping, agree fixed scope and price, and pick the stack with you.
02
Build, demo weekly
A senior-led team builds in your repos and your cloud account. You see working software every week, not a status report.
03
Launch
Production deploy on your infrastructure with monitoring, analytics and the security basics in place.
04
Keep building with or without us
Clean handover docs included. Continue with a dedicated team, or take it in-house. You own everything either way.
The offer
One sprint. One price. A product you own.
AI MVP Sprint
From AUD $40,000
