MVP Development Services for Startups

Go from idea to launched product in weeks, not months. I build production-ready MVPs that validate your business hypothesis with real users.

The Startup Validation Challenge

Most startups fail not because of bad ideas, but because they build too much before validating demand. You're facing real constraints:

Limited runway

Every month spent building is capital burned. You need to launch fast and start learning.

Technical uncertainty

You're not sure what architecture will scale, or which features actually matter to users.

Resource constraints

Hiring a full engineering team before product-market fit is expensive and risky.

Speed vs. quality tradeoff

You need to move fast, but cutting corners on architecture creates technical debt that slows you down later.

What I Deliver

I build MVPs that are genuinely minimal—focused on your core value proposition—while being genuinely viable: production-ready, secure, and architected to scale.

Production-Ready Code

Not a prototype or demo. Real, deployed software that users can interact with from day one.

Scalable Architecture

Built on foundations that grow with you. When you hit traction, you won't need to rewrite everything.

Core Features Only

Ruthless focus on what matters. We identify the 20% of features that deliver 80% of the value.

Full Ownership

You own the code, the infrastructure, and all intellectual property. No lock-in, no dependencies on me.

The MVP Development Process

01

Discovery & Scoping

3-5 days

We define your core value proposition, identify must-have features, and cut everything else. I challenge assumptions and help you find the fastest path to validation.

02

Architecture Design

2-3 days

I design a system that's simple enough to build fast, but structured to evolve. Technology choices optimized for speed now and scalability later.

03

Rapid Development

3-6 weeks

Focused sprints with regular demos. You see progress weekly and can course-correct before we've gone too far in any direction.

04

Launch & Iterate

3-5 days

Deployment to production, monitoring setup, and handoff. I stick around for the first user feedback cycle to help you prioritize what comes next.

Technology Stack

I choose technologies based on your specific needs, but typically work with:

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to build an MVP?

Most MVPs take 4-8 weeks from kickoff to launch. The exact timeline depends on complexity, but I'm aggressive about cutting scope to hit target dates. Speed matters more than features at this stage.

How do you price MVP projects?

Every MVP is different, so I provide custom quotes based on scope and complexity. After our discovery call, you'll receive a detailed proposal with fixed pricing—no surprises. Let's talk about your specific needs.

Will the MVP code scale, or will we need to rewrite it?

The code is built to scale. I've seen too many startups hit traction and immediately face a rewrite. I architect for growth from day one—you'll be able to build on this foundation for years.

Do you work with non-technical founders?

Absolutely. Most of my clients are non-technical founders. I translate business requirements into technical decisions and keep you informed without overwhelming you with jargon.

What happens after the MVP launches?

You own everything—code, infrastructure, documentation. I can continue with ongoing development, help you hire your first engineer, or hand off completely. Your choice.

Can you work with my existing technical team?

Yes. I often work alongside in-house developers or other contractors. I can lead the architecture or contribute as a senior developer—whatever configuration makes sense.
