./i-have-an-idea
Your idea, shipped.
That's the message I like most in my inbox: an idea, and the will to make it real.
You've carried this thing around for months. You've explained it to friends, sketched screens, maybe clicked something together in a no-code tool. The product in your head is ready. Now it wants to exist.
The fastest path there starts with a sharp definition, and that's exactly where we begin.
How it works
1. We sharpen the idea. One long conversation. Who pays, why now, what makes people come back. The idea gets smaller and stronger in this step. What survives is the part worth building.
2. I write the shape of it. A short document: data model, core flows, stack, and a clear line around version one. You'll understand every word of it.
3. You see it grow, week by week. Something runs on your phone within two weeks. Real, tappable, yours. Every week after, it does more.
4. It ships. App Store submission, review, launch. I've been through Apple review often enough to keep it smooth.
What you get
A working product in the hands of real users. Source code you own, in a repo you control. A data model built to carry feature two, three, and ten. And a clear view of the business underneath, which is often the most valuable output of all.
Where I draw the line
Version one stays focused. If an idea only works with all fourteen features at once, I'll say so before you spend the money. That honesty is part of the service.
Timeline
Most MVPs run six to twelve weeks from first conversation to submitted build.
FAQ
- How much does it cost to build an MVP?
- Scope decides the price, and scope is what we settle in the first conversation. A focused MVP with one core loop, authentication and payments is a very different project from a two-sided marketplace. You get a fixed number after we've defined scope. A quote before scope is a guess dressed up as a number.
- Do I need a technical co-founder?
- A working product and first users are fully reachable without one. The moment for a co-founder comes later, when technical decisions become daily rather than occasional. Plenty of founders reach a funded seed round solo.
- Should I build for iOS, Android, or web first?
- Whichever platform your first hundred users are already on. Knowing who those hundred people are is the real question, and we answer it together.
- What happens after launch?
- You own the code and can take it anywhere. If you'd rather keep building together, that's what a technical counterpart is for.
