Sports app development company who leads the game

One of the most controversial questions as budgets fluctuate significantly in dependency on an application type, its complexity, respectful scope of work, and the expected terms of development.

One more tricky thing is that it’s extremely difficult to compare even two typical projects’ costs, using projects’ complexity as a base for comparison. Here is a cost breakdown as an example:

• A basic app (e.g., a fitness tracker with simple features) may cost $20,000–$50,000
• A complex app (e.g., live streaming with analytics and integrations) may range from $100,000–$200,000+

However, as soon as we add AI-powered features to the fitness tracker – let’s say you want your app to have personalized workout plans or an AI-driven voice assistant – the cost of the application increases rapidly. If we add one more smart feature, such as health risk alerts, we need integrations with wearables, which makes the cost larger.

That’s the case when adding advanced features to a comparatively simple app significantly increases costs, potentially aligning it with a complex app budget.

The most productive way to outline the costs of sports software is to focus on the project’s scope which is defined by the goal: you’re building a full-scale solution for the sports industry, or you’re ready to start with a minimum viable product (MVP).

For instance, fantasy sports app development with basic features may take less time and cost compared to a solution with advanced integrations like real-time player stats or AI-powered match predictions.

Inside this dimension, the cost breakdown in general looks like this:

• MVP development: Starts at $20,000–$50,000 depending on features
• Full-scale solution: Starts at $100,000+ with advanced functionalities

For precise calculations of sports app development services cost contact AnyforSoft development team. We’ll provide you with approximate figures right after having grasped your general idea of a fantasy sports app, sports mobile app, coaching app, sports betting app, or any other type of solution. After a thorough analysis of your idea and expected outcome, we will provide more grounded calculations.

Similar to estimating development costs, the timeline depends on the complexity and scale of the project as well as the app’s requirements.

Let’s consider the cost of sports application development for the top 5 most popular apps. We’ll calculate budgets for an app development project in two scenarios:

• A solution based on a simple sports app idea with basic features.
• A more complex software solution with advanced features.

The general figures for both cases look like this:

• Fantasy sports app. Basic features (user registration, team creation, and score tracking)— 4–6 months. Advanced features (real-time player stats or AI-powered match predictions)—6–9 months.
• Ticket booking app. Basic features (seat selection, payment gateway integration, and event notifications)—3–5 months. Advanced features (dynamic pricing or AR-based seat previews)—6–8 months.
• Fitness web app. Basic features (workout tracking, progress visualization, and community challenges)—4–6 months. Advanced features (AI-driven personalized workout plans or wearable integration)—7–10 months.
• Sports league app. Basic features (scheduling, team management, and real-time score updates)—5–7 months. Advanced features (live video streaming or interactive analytics)—8–12 months.
• Sports betting app. Basic features (account management, odds display, and secure payment processing)—6–9 months. Advanced features (betting, AI-based odds predictions, or blockchain integration)—10–14 months.
