The MVP.
MVP scope, a build plan, success metrics, and a build-vs-buy call, the smallest thing that proves the hypothesis.
The MVP is a fixed-scope Set Piece: a scoped MVP defined by the hypothesis it tests, with a build plan, success metrics and a build-vs-buy call — delivered in 2–3 weeks from £18,000 (CPO + PM + engineering intake).
What it is.
Most MVPs prove nothing because they're scoped to ship, not to learn. We scope yours the other way round — starting from the question you most need answered, then cutting back to the smallest build that answers it honestly.
It comes with the plan to build it, the metrics that tell you whether it worked, and a clear-eyed build-vs-buy call so you don't write code you could have rented.
Who it's for.
- Founders about to commit engineering to a first version.
- Teams who've validated demand and need a disciplined first build.
- SMEs launching a new line who want the smallest credible bet.
What you get.
- A scoped MVP defined by the hypothesis it tests.
- A build plan with sequencing and milestones.
- Success metrics agreed before you start.
- A build-vs-buy assessment for each major component.
- Partner recommendations where you need delivery muscle.
How it works.
It starts with a free discovery call. We confirm the fit, agree the scope and the fixed price, and book the dates. No drawn-out scoping forms, no surprise invoices — you know exactly what you're buying before you commit. You build the smallest thing that earns the right to build the next thing.
