Web & SaaS Development Agency for US Startups
We help US founders, product teams, and businesses build scalable web applications, SaaS platforms, and MVPs — with EST/PST timezone overlap, fixed-price contracts, and full IP ownership from day one.
Engineering quality at a fraction of US agency rates
US software development agencies typically charge $150–$300/hour. Nivoq delivers the same engineering quality — senior engineers, clean architecture, production-grade code — at rates that make your runway go further. Our team has shipped products used by thousands of users across healthcare, edtech, and ecommerce.
EST/PST Overlap
4–6 hours of daily overlap with Eastern time. Standups, reviews, and Slack responses happen within your business hours.
Fixed-Price Contracts
Milestone-based billing with no hourly surprises. You know the cost before we write a single line of code.
Full IP Ownership
Every line of code, every design asset, every database schema — 100% yours upon project completion.
Transparent pricing for US budgets
All prices are in USD. We offer fixed-price project contracts and monthly retainers. No hidden fees, no scope creep billing without approval.
Discovery

1-week deep dive into your product requirements, architecture planning, and delivery roadmap. Deliverable: technical spec + project estimate.
MVP
$8,000 – $25,000
8–16 week focused build. Core features, production deployment, and launch readiness. Ideal for pre-seed and seed-stage startups.
Scale

Ongoing engineering retainer for post-launch iteration, feature development, and platform scaling. Dedicated team, weekly sprints.
StudyNotion: E-Learning Platform built for scale
A US-based edtech client needed a full-stack e-learning platform capable of handling thousands of concurrent students, secure payment processing, and real-time course delivery. The existing solution was a monolith that couldn't scale past 500 users.
We rebuilt the platform on a modern stack — React, Node.js, MongoDB, and Razorpay integration — with JWT authentication, cloud-based content delivery, and a performance-first architecture. The result: sub-second page loads, 99.9% payment success rate, and a 95% user satisfaction score.

California Consumer Privacy Act compliance including data inventory, consent management, and deletion workflows.
PCI DSS
Payment integrations using Stripe and Razorpay with tokenization, no raw card data storage, and secure checkout flows.
Common questions from US clients
What time zones do you cover for US clients?
We maintain a 4–6 hour daily overlap with EST (10am–4pm EST) and a 2–4 hour overlap with PST. All sprint reviews, standups, and client calls are scheduled within US business hours. Async communication via Slack is available 24/7.
How much does it cost to build a SaaS MVP with Nivoq?
A focused SaaS MVP typically ranges from $8,000–$25,000 USD depending on scope, integrations, and timeline. We offer fixed-price milestone contracts so there are no billing surprises. Discovery engagements start at $1,500.
Do you sign NDAs and work-for-hire agreements?
Yes. We sign mutual NDAs before any discovery call and provide full IP assignment agreements. All code, designs, and deliverables are 100% owned by you upon final payment.
Are you familiar with US compliance requirements like HIPAA or SOC 2?
Yes. We have experience building HIPAA-compliant healthcare platforms and can architect systems with SOC 2 readiness in mind — including audit logging, access controls, encryption at rest and in transit, and data residency requirements.
What is your development process for US clients?
We run 2-week sprints with weekly video syncs, a shared Slack channel, and a live staging environment updated after every sprint. You have full visibility into progress at all times.
