What is this app
This mobile-friendly system enables pet owners to book appointments and manage their pets' medical histories online. Veterinarians can efficiently manage their daily schedules and document clinic visits with diagnostic notes and uploaded medical images. Hospital administrators have access to a centralized dashboard to monitor hospital performance, visit volumes, and overall revenue across clinic locations.
As a pet owner, I want to book a clinic appointment so that my pet can be treated at a specific time.
As a pet owner, I want to view my pet's lab results and vet instructions so that I can provide proper home care.
As a veterinarian, I want to view my daily schedule so that I can prepare for upcoming consultations.
As a veterinarian, I want to upload medical images and write diagnosis notes so that the pet's history is accurately recorded.
As an administrator, I want to see daily revenue and visit counts so that I can assess hospital performance.

Requirements to minimum viable plan to cost
Momen doesn't give a vague quote: it first sizes the project's actual demand for each capability and resource, then costs each item out.
The numbers in the "Project demand" column below — their scale assumptions and derivations — are detailed in Scale & sizing.

Servers, databases, traffic and storage are inherent infrastructure costs for this project — you pay them whether you outsource, use Cursor or Lovable, or build it yourself (self-built runs ≈ $441/mo at AWS list prices, often more), plus the extra dev and ops staff. Momen bundles all of it into $368/mo all-in and removes the need for an ops team.
The frontend can be generated with AI tools (Cursor, Lovable, etc.); the hard part is the backend — auth, database, scaling, data security and ops. Momen delivers a production-grade backend as a BaaS: keep the vibe-coding speed on the frontend, while the backend runs on proven infrastructure — reliable, with no self-hosting or ops.
What scale this estimate assumes, and how the numbers are derived
Cost depends heavily on usage volume. First see the key assumptions and business scenarios this estimate uses, then the full calculation derived from each scenario for every resource — all adjustable to your real situation.
We assume approximately 5,000 registered pet owners based on the project description. Additionally, we include a small pool of about 22 staff members (vets and admins) and 1,000 anonymous visitors who browse the store location and service details before registering.
This is a standard local service application with steady, linear growth as pet owners register over time. We assume a 225-day accumulation value is appropriate for a product that is not a day-one migration but builds its dataset through ongoing operations.

Peak load
We slice the first hour of the hospital's opening as a distinct scenario because it combines heavy staff activity (starting consultations) with high customer booking demand. This 1-hour window (3,600 seconds) occurs daily. It captures the highest concurrent load on both the scheduling and medical record modules.
