MVP Development: Minimum Viable Product Software

Launch a working MVP in about two months, test it with real users and build the next features on production-grade code.

MVP Development: Minimum Viable Product Software

Custom MVP development services

We scope, design, build and support MVPs. You can also bring us an existing MVP to fix or extend, or hire us for MVP consulting.

We handle the whole MVP development process, from planning to release. After launch, we support the product and adjust it based on user feedback.

For startups and established companies alike, we check that the concept fits the current market and report back with strategic options to reduce risk.

We can take your existing MVP, extend it and turn it into a complete product with the additional features you need.

Architecture matters, but to test an MVP with real users you also need an interface they find easy to use. Our UI/UX designers design it with you.

If your existing MVP is not up to standard, we find what is missing or broken and fix it.

MVP projects are often done in stages. If you already have a design, we can go straight to prototyping.

Our engineers and architects work with your internal team to propose an approach and manage the project.

For startups, we build a working product with the core features you need, on an architecture that is easy to extend, within your budget.

What is a minimum viable product?

An MVP (minimum viable product) is a version of your product with just enough features for early users to use it and give feedback. It lets you test your assumptions before you invest in the full product.

Benefits from MVP development for your business

Instead of waiting for a complex solution, you get working software that covers what you need now.

Every feature adds something that can go wrong. An MVP with only the core features is simpler to keep stable.

Every feature adds something that can go wrong. An MVP with only the core features is simpler to keep stable.

You test whether your idea works before making a large investment, and planning and research up front reduce the risk further.

Your customers and employees get something usable sooner, and your product reaches the market earlier.

An MVP also costs less, because building only the core functionality takes less development effort.

We help you set KPIs to evaluate how the MVP performs, and we test the product throughout development to keep defects to a minimum.

Planning an MVP takes less time and effort than planning a complex system, and we help you decide what to include.

How to develop custom MVP software

Every app is different, but most MVPs go through the same four steps:

Discovery and planning

Discovery and planning

The first step. Your internal team can do the initial research, or you can use our discovery phase and business analysis services.

Rapid prototyping

Rapid prototyping

Our engineers build a prototype with the agreed features within the agreed time frame.

MVP development

MVP development

Once you approve the prototype, we start developing the MVP. Our developers learn your business model so the software supports it.

Launch and support

Launch and support

We launch the software, check that it works as intended and provide ongoing support, including updates and fixing outages.

Custom MVPs for a variety of industries

We have built MVPs for companies in these industries and are open to new ones.

Go Wombat's custom MVP development tech stack

The languages and frameworks we use to build MVPs:

Python

Python is one of the main languages for artificial intelligence, machine learning and MVP development, and it is our main language at Go Wombat. Our developers use it to build stable, functional apps.

Django

Django is a Python web framework that lets us build features quickly without compromising the structure or security of your application.

FastAPI

FastAPI is a Python framework for building fast APIs. We use it when an MVP needs a lightweight, high-performance backend.

JavaScript

ReactJS

The difference between PoC, prototype, and MVP

We can handle each of these stages: proof of concept (PoC), prototype and MVP.

  • Proof of Concept

    Proof of Concept

    A small project in which we build a demo to check whether your idea can work in practice.

  • Prototype

    Prototype

    An interactive model that shows the user flows, the layout and how the main user-facing elements will work.

  • MVP

    MVP

    After the PoC and prototype, we build a working MVP that you can release to early users.

Our full-cycle MVP development experts

Three ways to staff MVP development, and what each means for you:

  • In-house development

    In-house development

    You supervise the development team and process directly. The downside is that you handle management yourself and have to find people with specific skills at short notice.

  • Partially outsourced

    Partially outsourced

    You start faster and have extra resources, but you remain responsible for coordination, quality and speed.

  • Outsourced MVP development

    Outsourced MVP development

    When you outsource MVP development to Go Wombat, we take responsibility for management and are accountable for the results.

Minimum viable product FAQs

Minimum viable product development means building a version of the product with just enough features for early users. The goal is to test whether the product is worth building in full.

It shows whether real users want the product and what needs to change before you invest in the full version.

With limited resources, an MVP tells you whether the product is worth developing in full.

You can also use it to test how your target users react to different features before you build the final product.

Not always. Some MVPs are landing pages or no-code prototypes. A software MVP that real users rely on has to meet performance and security requirements, and that usually requires code.

Most MVPs go through discovery and planning, prototyping, development, and launch and support. The details depend on your company, the type of software and your budget. Contact us for an estimate.
