Cost Factors
What Affects the Cost?
Understanding these factors helps you make smarter decisions about scope and budget.
Number of Apps
A food delivery platform has 4 components: user app, restaurant app, delivery app, and admin panel. Each adds to the total cost.
Maps & Real-Time Tracking
Real-time GPS tracking, route optimisation, and ETA calculation using Google Maps or Mapbox adds ₹1-3 lakhs to development.
Payment Integration
Razorpay, Stripe, UPI, COD, and wallet integrations. Each payment method requires testing and compliance work.
Real-Time Features
Push notifications, order status updates, live chat support, and real-time tracking require WebSocket infrastructure.
AI Features
Recommendation engine, smart search, dynamic pricing, and demand forecasting add AI development cost.
Scalability & Infrastructure
Handling peak order volumes requires auto-scaling infrastructure, CDN, and database optimisation — planned from day one.
