MVP Development That Puts Your Product in Front of Real Users

An MVP (minimum viable product) is the smallest version of your product that real users can try. We help you decide what belongs in it, build it on code you own, and keep developing it as you learn.

How it's priced

A short form. We reply within one business day, Eastern Time.

Ownership
Code yours as each invoice is paid

If this sounds familiar

Most first products stall for the same few reasons.

  • You have an idea and a deadline, but no technical cofounder.
  • The feature list keeps growing, and the launch keeps slipping.
  • You built a prototype with no-code or AI tools, and it won't stretch to real customers.
  • Investors or early customers want to see something working, not slides.
  • You're worried about costs running away, or losing control of your code.

What we help you build

A real product for your first users, without spending on features you can add later

Scope that fits your runway

We help you cut the feature list to what proves the idea, and park the rest for later.

A real product

Real accounts and real data, launched where your first users can actually use it.

Web, mobile, or both

A web app, an iOS or Android app, or a combination, depending on where your first users are.

Built to keep going

Tested, documented code, so the next version builds on the first instead of starting over.

We ship our own products too

First releases we've taken to the stores

Three of our own apps went from idea to the App Store and Google Play, and five more are on the way.

Deliverables

What you get

  • A written plan and estimate from discovery, when you need one
  • A prioritized first release: what ships now and what waits
  • A launched product in hosting and app store accounts in your name
  • Documentation, so you can keep building with us or with your own team

On every project

  • Working software to see and try every 1 to 2 weeks
  • Code review and automated tests on every change
  • Accounts in your name, and work that's yours as each invoice is paid

Process

How an MVP project runs

  1. 01

    Discovery, if needed

    We work through your idea, your users, your budget, and what the first release must prove, and you get a written plan and estimate. If the scope is already clear, we move straight to a proposal.

  2. 02

    Build in short cycles

    You see working software every one to two weeks and can change priorities as you learn.

  3. 03

    Launch

    We launch into hosting and app store accounts in your name. A focused MVP often goes live within about two months.

  4. 04

    Learn and keep building

    After launch, keep developing with us month to month, or take the code and documentation to any team you choose.

Scoping and pricing

How an MVP is priced

Most MVPs suit a fixed budget per phase: you know what each phase costs, and you decide what's built within it as you learn.

We take on focused first releases as well as larger builds.

How we scope and price projects

What moves the cost

  • How many user types and core flows the first release needs
  • Web, iOS, Android, or a combination
  • Payments, messaging, or other integrations
  • How polished the first design needs to be

FAQ

Questions about MVP Development

What is an MVP?

A minimum viable product is the smallest version of your product that real users can try. It tests whether the idea works before you spend on everything else.

How much does an MVP cost?

It depends on how many features and user types the first release needs, and whether it's web, mobile, or both. We don't publish a rate card. When the scope is still taking shape, a fixed-fee discovery comes first.

How long does it take to build an MVP?

A focused MVP often goes live within about two months. Each extra platform, integration, or approval step adds time.

Do I need a technical cofounder?

No. We explain plans, costs, and trade-offs in plain English, and you see working software every one to two weeks. You keep the code and documentation, so you can hire a team later.

I already have a prototype. Can you build on it?

Bring it. A fixed-fee technical review shows whether it's worth building on or better to start fresh, before you spend more.

Will I own the code?

Yes. Code, designs, and other work become yours as each invoice is paid, and the hosting and app store accounts are in your name.
