Building an iOS app with personalized roadmap generation and daily action plans would require 8–18 weeks and $8K–$18K in AI-assisted development (Cursor/Claude Pro subscriptions, Firebase/AWS managed backend, third-party habit-tracking APIs). However, the primary acquisition value here is not the software codebase—it is the verified $984/mo profit stream, 85% margins, and early traction in a competitive space. The buyer acquires paying users, a working iOS app, and a proven monetization model rather than rebuilding from scratch. The 5-month operating history and platform-verified financials reduce execution risk relative to a greenfield build. This moderately favors acquisition over in-house development, though the modest absolute MRR ($1.2K) means the business is still small and the buyer is primarily paying for early validation and customer base rather than substantial distribution or defensibility.

Cash estimate includes the AI tools, APIs and infrastructure needed for a solo founder to recreate the software. Build time is informational and lightly weighted. The verdict is driven mainly by customers, users, verified earnings, retention, distribution, brand, data and operating history.
