MVP development for startups
We take a startup idea to a working product, built by a senior team. We cover the React and Next.js front end, the Django or FastAPI backend, and the AWS it runs on, with the scope and price agreed up front.
A spec you sign off on before we build
An MVP goes wrong when no one agreed what it was. We start with a scoping call and a written spec that says what gets built, how it behaves, and what is out of scope. You sign off before any code is written, so we are building the right thing and you know the price up front. That clarity is what keeps a first build from sprawling into something you cannot afford.
- A written spec you approve first
- Scope and price agreed up front
- No surprise invoices later
One senior team for the whole product
You do not have to stitch together a freelancer for the interface and an agency for the backend. We build the React and Next.js front end, the Django or FastAPI backend, and the design, as one team. That means fewer handoffs, a product that hangs together, and senior engineers writing the code rather than juniors handed a brief.
- Frontend, backend, and design in one team
- Senior engineers on the actual build
- A product that holds together
A real product in production, not a demo
We ship your MVP to production on AWS, with the deployment pipeline and monitoring to keep it running. It is a working product you can put in front of users and investors, built on real architecture so it can grow if it takes off, rather than a throwaway prototype you have to rebuild the moment you get traction.
- Deployed to AWS, not just a laptop
- Built on architecture that can scale
- Ready for users and investors
Priced for a startup budget
We work in short sprints on a shared board so you can see progress and adjust before it is too late. Hire a dedicated squad each month while you build, or bring in one specialist by the hour for a focused piece. Either way the cost is predictable and there is no long lock-in, which is what a startup actually needs.
- Short sprints with visible progress
- Monthly squad or hourly specialists
- Predictable cost, no lock-in
Everything your first build needs
Beyond the core product we add DevOps and CI/CD and AI integration when they earn their place, and you can read a case study of a product we built or why startups choose us over an agency.
MVP development questions
It depends on scope, which we agree with you before any work starts. We give a clear, fixed price on a free scoping call rather than an open-ended hourly meter, so a startup knows what it is committing to.
A working product deployed to production on AWS, the code and infrastructure you own, and documentation so any engineer can continue it. It is built on real architecture so it can grow rather than needing a rewrite.
Yes. Many startups move from a first build to an ongoing monthly squad as they add features and scale. You are never locked in, and you keep working with the same senior team.
It depends on scope, but most MVPs are measured in weeks, not months. We agree a clear, realistic timeline and a focused feature set on a free scoping call before any work starts.
Yes. The code and the AWS accounts it runs in are yours from day one, in your own repositories and cloud. There is no lock-in, so you can keep building with us or hand it to anyone else.
We can keep building after the MVP ships, adding features and scaling as you find traction, or hand over clean, documented code for your own team. You are not tied to us either way.
Let's build, scale, or automate it.
Hire a full senior team or a single specialist across frontend, backend, AWS, DevOps, and AI. You work directly with the engineers, not an account manager.
