Hi there,
Let me preface this message by telling you that what I am about to say is probably not what you want to hear.
To get out of this situation in my opinion, you need to stop all development and go back to the drawing board with your project.
At this point it is not going anywhere and spending more money on it is not going to help you.
Please keep in mind that I don't know what your project is so to make this a bit more realistic, I am going to use an example which you can then use to build your project again in a better way.
If I were you this is how I would do it. Let pretend for a minute that your project related to helping people cook rice.
Instead of developing a project with all these complex features, I recommend you simply start a blog talking about the niche that you are targeting. In this case, people who buy rice, eat rice, cook rice.
Buy a cheap domain, for example https://howtobuyandcookriceonatuesdaynight.com
Then buy a premium WordPress theme with a nice UI and start writing posts related to your niche.
Get the SEO juice going. Write 3 to 4 high quality articles about topics related to your niche each week.
If you don't know how to write articles, SEO, and things related to SEO, there are many threads on this forum that can help you get started.
Do that for 6 months. At the beginning writing an article will take a lot of time but as you get better, it should only take you 1 to 2 hours per article.
Then start joining communities of people in your niche and try to help people in this communities, then start sharing your blog and your articles.
Once you have done that, start adding a prompt on your blog so people can subscribe to get your new articles.
As you spend more and more time in those communities, you will then be able to define what their problems are and what the solutions could be. Maybe it's website, maybe it's an mobile app, maybe it's a browser extension.
The point here is that you don't really know until you get the data.
This is the beginning of the thinking stage of your business. So far you haven't built anything and it is time to get started.
Talk to the people in those communities about your project, keep writing the blog, and maybe create a small wait-list for the business.
You will find that your solution to these problems will change, sometimes daily, until you find the right solution.
Keep talking to people, get them interested. If all goes well you should be able to get a wait-list of a few hundred people by that stage. All of whom are interested in your project/business.
Now, for the coding part.
You can go the DIY route and simply head to freecodecamp which is a completely free curriculum to learn web development and go from zero to hero within 6 months, or you can start hiring people to do it for you.
Personally I would learn to do it by myself as those skills will be useful to iterate on your product much faster. Also it is a lot cheaper.
I am professional developer and should I do freelance work, I would probably charge between $100 to $150 per hour. That is the price to pay for quality. Anyone whonclaims to do this for $20 per hour is not good and you will end up with a terrible app.
The idea is to get an MVP(minimum viable product) out of the door within 1 month.
I know you think your product needs 25 different features to be complete. Trust me it doesn't. What you need is to build the most important feature and that's it.
No authentication, no complicated workflows, just one feature. Then you need to get people to use it (remember that wait list we talked about before...)
Once people start using it, ask for feedback and start improving the product a little bit. Listen to your users. Ask questions. Then build.
After a month or so, add a payment link in your app and see if people are willing to pay for the product. This is the real test. If people do not want to pay for it, then you don't have business.
Ok, then what?
Well that depends, if you get to this stage and you start having a few customers, you can start thinking of adding more complicated features. Then you can raise your prices, and the cycle begins again. Build, market, get paid, and so on and so forth.
I know this is along process and I am not claiming that this will guarantee you success but your current way of doing things is not working so, I suggest you think real hard about your next steps.
Best of luck to you.
