MVPs scoped to learn, not just to launch.
We ship MVPs in 4 weeks. Fixed scope, fixed price, real codebase, production-ready. The kind of MVP you can put in front of a customer on day 30.
Why most MVPs aren’t actually minimum or viable.
Either the agency over-scopes — twelve flows, fifteen weeks, the launch slips, and you’ve built something nobody asked for. Or they under-scope — three screens, no auth, nothing learnable, and you’ve spent $10K on a clickable prototype. Both miss the point. An MVP exists to test a hypothesis with real users. We scope it to the hypothesis, ship it in weeks, and design it to be expanded — not rebuilt — when the data comes in.
12 flows promised in v1, only 5 shipped working. The agency optimized for buying time, not for shipping.
12-week MVP became 22 weeks. Launch slipped three times, budget doubled, scope crept on every sprint.
Clickable Figma delivered on day 30. No working code, no auth, nothing a customer could actually touch.
Four shapes, one engineering team.
SaaS MVPs
Web MVPs with auth, one or two core flows, real Stripe billing if needed. Production from day one.
See case studyAI-native MVPs
MVPs where the AI is the product. RAG, agents, evals — the AI version of MVP.
Mobile MVPs
iOS or Android (or both) MVPs via React Native. TestFlight in 4 weeks.
B2B platform MVPs
Multi-tenant, role-aware, dashboard-style MVPs for B2B products.
Side-by-side with a typical agency.
We don’t outbid the cheap shops, and we don’t pretend to be McKinsey. Here’s where the real practical difference lives.
The exact tools and why we chose them.
No mystery stack, no platform lock-in. You see what we use, you read why, and you own the keys on day one.
Fast to build, production-ready, AI-ready by default.
Real database from day one — no NoSQL improvisation that has to be rebuilt later.
Auth that scales — multi-tenant, SSO-ready when you need it.
Subscriptions, metering, the only billing stack worth using.
Zero-config deployment, scales when you do.
AI-ready from day one — add features when you want them.
Discover · Architect · Build · Ship.
Four stages, named timelines, named deliverables. No open-ended discovery. No moving goalposts.
Discover
We narrow scope ruthlessly. What’s the hypothesis you’re testing? Three flows max.
- Hypothesis
- Scoped feature list
- Success criteria
Architect
Schemas, routes, deployment plan — written down before code starts.
- Data model
- Routes spec
- Deployment plan
Build
Weekly demos. We ship to staging at the end of week 1, every week after.
- Working MVP
- Test coverage on critical paths
- Production-ready build
Ship
Production launch with onboarding. 30 days of post-launch iteration.
- Production cutover
- Analytics + funnel tracking
- 30-day post-launch iteration
Real numbers, named client.
A B2B fintech needed to test a multi-currency platform with real customers before building the full product. Most agencies quoted 12+ weeks and $50K+.
We scoped to two flows, built with auth + multi-currency from day one, shipped in 6 weeks for a fraction of the alternative budget.
50% AUM growth post-launch. Platform validated with real customers, expanded into a full product without a rewrite.
Fixed price. Fixed scope. Public ranges.
We don’t hide pricing behind a sales call. Pick the tier that matches your stage. The discovery call confirms scope, not budget.
- MVP scoped to one hypothesis
- Auth + database + 1–2 core flows
- Production deployment on your cloud
- Source code ownership
- 30 days of post-launch iteration
- Larger MVPs (3–5 flows, multi-tenant, AI-native)
- Senior engineer-led engagement
- Integrations, billing, advanced auth
- 90-day post-launch iteration
The questions we actually hear on calls.
Is 4 weeks really enough for an MVP?
For a hypothesis-focused MVP — yes. For a "whole product" MVP — no, and that’s not an MVP. We scope to what you can actually validate in 4 weeks. The rest is v2.
What if my MVP needs more than 4 weeks?
Then it’s Custom. 6–10 weeks for larger scope, still fixed-price. We tell you upfront whether your MVP fits the 4-week tier.
Will the MVP be production-ready or throwaway?
Production-ready. Real codebase, real auth, real database, deployed to your cloud. No clickable Figma. If you want a prototype to show investors, that’s a different (cheaper) engagement.
Can we extend the MVP into a full product?
Yes — that’s the point. We build with the assumption that you’ll keep going. The code is structured to expand, not rewrite.
Why fixed-price and not hourly?
Because hourly punishes you for slow agencies and rewards them for slow work. Fixed-price aligns incentives — we ship when we ship, you pay what we agreed.
What about ongoing development after launch?
Optional retainer. Most clients add features for 3–6 months post-MVP. Or take the code and hire in-house. Your call.
Most MVPs fail by trying to be everything. The good ones test one clear hypothesis with one clear scope, ship in weeks, and earn the right to be expanded. We build the good kind — and we tell you upfront if your idea fits the 4-week tier or doesn’t.
