White Label Live Streaming App Cost: $4,299, Fixed
Buying the platform underneath the live streaming clones costs $4,299, paid once, with deployment in six working days. The price covers the whole monorepo: the NestJS backend, the 44-route web app, the 15-route operator panel and the Expo mobile build. It does not cover the pre-launch list the build's own documentation names. That list sits on this page in full, and not in small print.

The routes a buyer usually weighs, and what each asks of you in money, calendar time and ownership.
| Route | Typical cost | What you end up with |
|---|---|---|
| Rented or hosted platform | A recurring fee, set by the provider | A running service, often with hosting and licensing folded into the fee. Because the price repeats, compare it with a one-time cost over the years you expect to operate, and read what happens to your hosts if you stop paying. |
| One-time script | Under $10 to about $600 on code marketplaces; roughly $250 to $1,500 from script vendors | Code you can deploy, though cheaper tiers often ship web-view apps instead of native ones and some vendors withhold the source from every published tier. |
| Custom build | $12,000 - $50,000 with a freelance team; $80,000 - $300,000 with an agency | Something made to order, with a schedule counted in quarters. The wallet and the agency layer are the parts that tend to exhaust the budget first. |
| Miracuves platform | $4,299 fixed | The finished platform underneath the clones, the full monorepo included, deployed in six working days on infrastructure you control. |
The market ranges are observations for comparable scope, not quotes from us, and a subscription can bundle costs a script leaves to you. This page compares a one-time software price with a recurring fee. It does not claim our route costs less in total. Our figure is the highlighted row, and it does not change after scoping.
What You Receive for the Price
A deployable platform: application source, the schema beneath it and the documents a technical buyer will want to read.
Ownership transfers completely. There is no runtime license, no per-seat charge and no dependence on what we choose to build next.
Items Not Covered by the Fixed Price
The base price does not move. These are the items that lie beyond it, and they are why this page runs longer than most pricing pages.
Launch-readiness fixes
Ten immediate items are listed in the documentation: demo credentials, the global guard, role alignment, admin cookies, secret rotation, HTTPS, upload limits and password hashing. With member balances and host payouts on the line, this is the first job to schedule.
Automated tests
The build has no test files at all today. A unit, integration and end-to-end suite is scoped work, with a testing roadmap already in the documentation. Set money aside for it before real viewers arrive.
Phone app parity
The Expo app handles the core viewer and host flows and is graded a stub. Matching the 44-route web client is the most frequent request, and where phones are your main surface it cannot be skipped.
Observability
Nothing provides structured logging, APM, metrics or alerting. Live rooms break in real time, so this layer is what turns an outage from a guessing game into a diagnosis.
Migration history
The schema goes in by direct push, which is unsafe once production data exists. A migration history is small, early work, and it costs much less before your first user than after.
Running on several servers
Multi-instance running needs the Socket.IO Redis adapter, which is not installed, plus connection pooling and clustering. Live concurrency reaches the single-server ceiling sooner than most products do.
Each item is scoped and quoted before it starts. They are listed here because a $4,299 platform with an unpriced pre-launch list would not really be a $4,299 platform.
From Signature to Live in Six Days
The working days in sequence, and what gets done on each.
Market, supply and split
We agree the market you are entering, where your first hosts will come from, whether agencies are involved and how the platform, agency and host shares should divide. A broadcasting product without hosts is an empty room, so supply is settled before software.
Your brand on all three surfaces
Name, logo, colors and splash go onto the web app, the operator panel and the Expo build, together with gift artwork and the thirteen legal and policy pages that a platform like this needs on its first day.
Install and connect your accounts
The monorepo and its PostgreSQL 16 database are installed on your servers. Agora, Stripe, Twilio, Firebase Cloud Messaging, SMTP and MinIO are wired in with credentials you hold, since each of those accounts should belong to you and not sit with us.
Wallet, splits and catalogs
All four currencies are configured, the three-way split is set with any room-type or regional overrides, gift prices are entered, VIP tiers defined, the withdrawal fee and approval rules set, and the game catalog switched on as far as your launch needs.
Training and handoff
Staff get accounts with suitable roles. Then we take a host application through approval, send a gift and trace its split, and approve a withdrawal, so the money path is understood before it carries anyone's earnings. The monorepo is placed in your repository.
The hardening window
You get sixty days of guidance, six months of priority bug fixes and twelve months of updates. For this platform we advise placing the hardening, migrations and observability work inside that period, and not leaving them for someday.
Six working days describes deployment. It is not a certificate of production readiness, and the pre-launch list above proceeds on its own schedule.
Cost by Region
No dollar total is given for building from scratch, since time is the truthful yardstick: a program of eighteen to thirty months with a senior team. The rates below let you work out the size of that yourself.
| Region | Senior engineer, blended hourly | What a program lasting 18-30 months implies |
|---|---|---|
| North America | $120 - $220 | Sits at the top of every build-versus-buy comparison, which is why most operators in this bracket choose to buy |
| Western Europe | $90 - $170 | On par with North America once notice periods and employer costs are added in |
| Gulf and Middle East | $60 - $130 | Frequently the very market you are selling to, so hiring locally appeals but the schedule gets no shorter |
| Eastern Europe | $45 - $95 | A popular outsourcing option, in which the risk moves away from cost and toward how well the specification is written |
| Latin America | $40 - $85 | Teams choose it mostly for working-hours overlap with North America and not for the rate |
| South and Southeast Asia | $25 - $60 | Cheapest per hour, though how much a team knows about live streaming in real time and virtual economies varies most here |
Why we hand you the rate and not a total
A total for building this yourself hinges on how large your team is, where it sits, and how much of the wallet and split logic gets designed correctly at the start rather than rebuilt after the first payout dispute. One headline number would be four guesses dressed as a finding. The rate and the duration let you assemble the estimate from inputs you control.
Treat the rates as blended indicative figures covering platform engineering in real time, and not as quotes. They exist so that you can run the calculation yourself rather than trusting our word.
The Reason the Price Is Fixed Instead of "Starting At"
What a set number obliges us to do
Demo sets the scope. What you can click through on the three surfaces is what arrives. No discovery stage exists that could reveal the estimate was hopeful, because the platform is already built and running.
Your gifts stay yours. We keep nothing from coin sales, gift commission, the agency share, withdrawal fees, VIP subscriptions or game participation. You set each of those levers and you keep what they earn.
No fee by headcount. A thousandth host adds nothing to your bill from us, which matters where growing supply is the whole plan.
Gaps are priced up front. The pre-launch list appears on the hub and again here. Each item is scoped and quoted before any work starts, so the true cost of reaching production is visible to you in advance.
Both statements hold together: this is a real head start on a very large build, and it is not production-hardened on day six. We say both.
Quote Gaps to Watch
None of these go to us. All of them go on your budget, and on a broadcasting platform several are large.
Agora account usage
Real-time media runs on your own Agora account, and usage is billed by the minute for each participant. On a product meant to keep rooms open, this is likely the largest recurring line, and it grows with popularity more than with revenue.
Payment gateway and store fees
Coin purchases through Stripe carry gateway charges, and any app store purchases you add carry more. Work out both before you fix the price of a coin pack.
Signing hosts
The hardest expense in the category. Agencies expect a share, and a platform with nobody live has nothing to watch. Budget supply before you budget ads.
Staffed moderation
The queues for reports, strikes and appeals exist. People still have to work them while rooms are open, and with live content that means a rota, not a queue checked once a day. Reviewing hosts' age and identity is also your job.
Media storage and streaming
Short videos of up to 200MB each, plus the square feed, pile up fast. Storage and bandwidth on MinIO or another provider become a growing line from launch.
Third-party accounts and market rules
Twilio, Firebase Cloud Messaging and your SMTP host each bill separately, and the rules on virtual currency and creator payouts in every market you enter are yours to meet. Cost the pre-launch list here too, so the six-day deployment stays a real head start.
Media usage and host supply decide unit economics more than anything else, and both rise with the growth you are aiming for.
