MVP as a service

MVP development: a focused first version, built to grow

An MVP is a learning tool. We help you cut the scope down to what you need to find out, build it properly, and put it in front of real users, without leaving you with throwaway code once it works.

Talk to us about MVP as a service

What we do

  • Scoping workshops to find the smallest useful version
  • Design and build of the first release
  • Analytics to measure what users actually do
  • A clear roadmap from MVP to version one

What MVP as a service means

You bring the idea. We take it from a rough concept to a working product in real users’ hands: scoping, design, engineering, launch and the analytics to see what users actually do. One team, one plan, one point of contact.

The goal of an MVP is to learn something, not to ship every feature. So the most valuable part is usually the first week, where we cut the scope down to what you need to find out and agree on what success looks like.

How an MVP project runs

A fixed timebox, agreed before we start, keeps the scope honest.

  1. Scoping workshop

    We list the assumptions behind the idea, pick the ones that matter most, and define the smallest product that tests them.

  2. Design

    User flows and interface designs for the core journey only, reviewed with you before we build.

  3. Build with weekly demos

    You see working software every week and can change direction early, while it is still cheap.

  4. Launch

    Release to the web, App Store or Google Play, with analytics and error tracking from day one.

  5. Measure and plan version one

    We review real usage with you and turn it into a roadmap for what to build next, and what to drop.

Built to keep, not to throw away

Many MVPs get rewritten the moment they work, because they were built as throwaway prototypes. We build MVPs on the same stack and practices we would use for the full product, kept small, so the code can grow with you instead of holding you back.

And because we build hardware too, your MVP doesn’t have to be software only. Connected devices, sensor prototypes and companion apps are all in scope.

Tools we use

  • SvelteKit
  • React
  • React Native
  • Node.js
  • TypeScript
  • PostgreSQL
  • AWS
  • Product analytics
  • ESP32 prototypes

MVP as a service: common questions

  • How long does it take to build an MVP?

    It depends on the scope we agree in the workshop. We set a fixed timebox before we start and cut features, not quality, to stay inside it. The aim is weeks, not months.

  • What is the difference between an MVP and a proof of concept?

    A proof of concept answers a technical question: can this be built? An MVP answers a market question: will people use it? If the hard part is unproven, we usually suggest a POC first.

  • I’m not technical. Can you still work with me?

    Yes. Many founders we work with are not engineers. We explain decisions in plain language and you decide on product questions; we handle the technical ones.

  • Can an MVP include hardware?

    Yes. We design and build connected-device MVPs: firmware, a prototype board, the app and the cloud, so you can put a working device in front of users or investors.

  • What happens after the MVP?

    You get a roadmap based on real usage. We can keep building with you, or hand over cleanly to your own team with documentation.
