Abstract
This paper presents the design and implementation of a software cost estimation tool integrated into a mobile application developed using Flutter. The tool incorporates various techniques for software cost estimation, including expert judgment, function point analysis, 3D point analysis, and the COCOMO model. The purpose of the program is to give software engineers and project managers a practical and effective tool for calculating the time and money needed for software development projects. The paper provides a thorough explanation of each estimation technique’s implementation, along with a discussion of the app’s main features and functionalities. Because of the app’s intuitive and user-friendly design, users can quickly enter project data and get precise cost estimates. The tool’s efficacy is assessed using case studies and contrasts with other software cost estimation methods currently in use. The outcomes show that the app can produce trustworthy and precise cost estimates, which makes it an important resource for software development projects.
