The graveyard of failed startups is full of over-engineered MVPs that took nine months to launch, cost $300K, and validated nothing. The best MVPs are ruthlessly scoped, correctly architected for early learnings (not premature scale), and in front of actual paying users within ten weeks.
We have helped 50+ startups go from idea to launch. More importantly, we have helped them avoid the architectural decisions that trap companies in expensive rewrites at Series A. Our MVP engagements include a Product Strategy session that defines the single riskiest assumption to test, and we build only what is necessary to test it.
Two-day workshop that maps your riskiest business assumptions, defines the minimum feature set that tests them, and produces a prioritised MVP scope document — so you build evidence, not features.
An architecture designed to be correct at launch and survivable at 10× scale — without the premature abstraction that makes early-stage code painful to change. We specifically avoid microservices, complex queuing systems, and other patterns that add cost without adding early-stage value.
React/Next.js frontend, Node.js API, PostgreSQL database, authentication, subscription billing, and admin dashboard — the complete product stack, built to production quality standards with test coverage from day one.
End-to-end billing: subscription plans, trial periods, metered usage, coupon codes, customer portal, failed payment handling, and webhook processing — everything required to generate real revenue on day one.
PostHog or Mixpanel event tracking taxonomy, funnel configuration, user identification, and feature flag setup for day-one experiments. You should know exactly what is and is not working within your first week of traffic.
Waitlist with referral mechanics, onboarding email sequences (Resend), in-app onboarding tours, and SEO foundations — the tooling that converts your launch traffic into activated, retained users.
We run a structured two-day workshop (remote or in-person) to extract your core assumptions, map your target user's jobs-to-be-done, and define the precise scope of the MVP. Output: a one-page MVP brief that everyone on both teams can point to when scope creep tempts.
User flows, wireframes, and visual design for every screen in the MVP scope — designed to be buildable in the available time, not aspirationally beautiful. We validate the core flow with 3–5 target users before engineering begins.
Fast sprints with weekly demos. Engineering and design run concurrently — while the frontend team builds Sprint 1 screens, design is completing Sprint 2. We share a continuous integration environment so you can review real, deployed builds daily.
Private beta launch with your initial users, crash monitoring, performance validation, and real-time error reporting. We manage the public launch and are on-call for the first 72 hours. Post-launch, we deliver a full technical handover and a recommended iteration roadmap based on early data.
A pre-seed founder needed to validate whether busy professionals would pay for an AI-powered personalised wellness programme before raising capital. Budget was $80K. Timeline was 10 weeks to launch or miss the fundraising window.
We ran a Product Strategy workshop in week one, built the design in week two, and shipped a full-stack Next.js application with Stripe billing, AI-personalised onboarding, and PostHog analytics in weeks three through ten. The beta launched on day 70 with 200 paying users.
Many of our best projects combine two or more services from the list below.

"AppCorp delivered a production-ready AI platform in 11 weeks that our internal team estimated would take 9 months. The architecture is clean, the docs are thorough, and the product works exactly as specified."
