The MVP that succeeds is almost never the one with the most features — it is the one that reached users fastest with the one workflow that matters. The discipline here is subtractive: what is the hypothesis, what is the smallest honest test of it, and what is deliberately, explicitly not built yet. A good MVP engagement argues scope down harder than the founder does; that resistance is the service.

Typical engagements: founder MVPs (the six-week version of the two-year dream), internal tool MVPs testing a process hypothesis, and the scope-rescue of MVPs that grew features instead of users. Instrumented from day one — an MVP without analytics is a demo, not an experiment.

Questions

Asked about MVP.

Focused MVPs land in 4–10 weeks. The variables that decide it are content readiness (yours) and scope discipline (both of ours) — not technology. Every week saved by cutting a feature is a week closer to the only test that matters: real users.

No — that is what the parking-lot discipline prevents. The MVP is built on production-grade foundations with deliberate scope edges, so growth means extending, not rewriting. The architecture notes document exactly where the seams are.

If you are testing whether people understand the idea: clickable prototype, days. If you are testing whether people will use and pay for it: MVP, weeks. Most founders skip the first and under-scope the second; the brief conversation sorts which you actually need.
