Pricing is set as per your requirements and budget.
E-commerce & Multi-Vendor Marketplace for Alexandria

IoT Platform & Connected Device Apps for Alexandria
An IoT platform connects devices, collects their data and lets people monitor and control them. For Alexandria clients we usually begin with ota updates (staged firmware rollouts) and rules engine, then add mobile app and device provisioning. Typical first release: 12–20 weeks.

A crypto payment gateway lets merchants accept Bitcoin, Ethereum and stablecoins such as USDT and USDC, with instant conversion to fiat if required.

Typical first release: 10–16 weeks.
