Drive Better Outcomes Through Our MVP Development Services
Our MVP software development services include agile methodology (exhibit 1) to compare, sequence, and prioritize epics to define the MVP scope and avoid it turning into a Mediocre Value Proposition. When the MVP development is complete enough to deliver business value, we release it as a public pilot, analyze the data gathered and synthesize it to identify the top and bottom quartile feature-set and create a roadmap for the scaling up the MVP to a full-fledged product.

MVP Prototype Design
Using design sprints, we diverge and discover different user flows for a use case or connected use cases, evaluate high-level feasibility to converge at the path of least friction. Using these well-defined user flows and agile practices as the bedrock for designing, we iteratively produce technically feasible MVP software designs to validate the product hypothesis and remove impediments that lead to product failure.

Based upon the goal and domain of your business idea, we engage our prepackaged, highly customizable solutions OR implement the best combination of technologies, be it full-stack, mean stack, native-OS and so on, to deliver value at the earliest within the budget.

FAQ
-
What is MVP software development & why is it important?
Minimum Viable Product (MVP) assists in gauging the market for a business idea. It helps entrepreneurs verify the demand for a service/product in their targeted markets and region.
MVP software development is important as it assists in preventing huge losses that an entrepreneur can face if the product does not perform well in the market after already investing in full scale development.
-
What is the difference between MVP and prototype?
In layman terms, MVP refers to a product that is solely used for market validation of the business idea. For this purpose, it only requires the bare minimum features without any refinements.
On the other hand, a prototype is used for giving product demonstrations to consumers, investors and other stakeholders. For this reason, a prototype is just a close 2D or 3D replica of the actual product.
While a prototype can be both functional and non-functional, an MVP needs to be functional for proper market validation.
-
How long does it take to develop an MVP?
MVP software development is done using agile development practices that use various sprints to incrementally improve the software. By this method, developing the initial MVP for market validation and early adopter testing does not consume much time. However, the speed of the final software development will depend on the features suggested by early adopters during the test runs of MVP.
-
Do I need to develop an MVP from scratch?
While scratch development is the most common approach to develop an MVP, many MVP development companies also provide readymade software. These ready-made software are pre-built with numerous features required to launch a business, and thus can also serve as an MVP and used for market validation.
Based on early adopter feedback, entrepreneurs can customize and improve readymade solutions. However, in the majority of situations, these solutions require minimum customizations because of their feature loaded catalogue. Click here to check all our readymade business solutions.
