--What you want to sell is not a startup, but just software. Depending on how complex the software is, it might sell for between $100 to $1000. ---- I got the point. Unless you prove that it is an earth shattering idea and get a few million userbase, you are actually selling a software and not a business. The question than comes is what is the costliest software in the market? hardly any sw is costlier than $ 1k.

There's plenty of very expensive software - for example some of the really high end engineering packages I've used, for things like 3D modelling and fluid simulation, can sell for upwards of $5K per _seat_. But again, the value this software adds to the business has to be much more than its cost. A big company will easily spend $500K on software to manage construction materials if it means that it reduces their material wastage on a $1b project from 5% to 2%. I'm sure other people here can provide plenty of other examples.
