Common questions

What is a vibe coding service? +

A vibe coding service is an agency or freelancer that builds software using AI-assisted development tools — Lovable, Cursor, Claude Code, Bolt — on a client's behalf. The output is working software, not a prototype. The economics work because AI tools let skilled builders ship in days what used to take weeks.

What is vibe coding as a service? +

Vibe coding as a service (VCaaS) refers to productised AI development — fixed-price packages where a provider builds a defined scope for a flat fee, often with a tight delivery window (7–14 days for an MVP). It's the agency model adapted to what AI tooling makes possible: fast, scoped, repeatable builds at a fraction of traditional development cost.

How much does a vibe coding agency charge? +

Pricing varies by type. Freelancers typically charge $50–120/hr or $1,500–$8,000 for a fixed-scope MVP. Boutique agencies start around $5,000–$25,000 for a first build. Large agencies bill $30–150/hr depending on seniority and location. The AI tooling compresses timelines but doesn't eliminate quality differences — cheaper often means less production-ready output.

How do I know if a vibe coding agency is legitimate? +

Look for: named team members (not just stock photos), at least one verifiable shipped project you can inspect or confirm via a client reference, and pricing language that doesn't promise $99 MVPs or overnight turnarounds. Avoid anyone who ranks themselves #1 on their own "top vibe coding agencies" list. Read our full vetting methodology for the complete criteria we use.
