Fixed-price MVPs for founders.
Ship a real product in weeks, not months. Turn rough ideas, Notion docs, and voice notes into something users can click, try, and pay for — fast.
Timeline
7–30 days
From kickoff to a live product.
Founder-led
Direct builder access
You work directly with the builder. No account managers.
Capacity
Limited projects
Only a small number of client projects at a time, so your MVP gets full focus.
What "MVP as a Service" means
You're not buying developer hours. You're buying a first version that works.
Before we start, we agree on what the product must do in v1, what is explicitly out of scope, the price, and the delivery timeline. Then we build exactly that.
No scope creep. No surprise invoices. No dragging things out. Under the hood it's modern, boring tech — Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind, production hosting, analytics, payments if needed — built with AI-first workflows so it moves much faster than a traditional build.
What you receive
- · A focused, opinionated first version of your product.
- · Weekly progress you can see and test.
- · Direct founder-to-founder communication.
- · Full access to the code and infrastructure.
Payment terms: 50% upfront, 50% on delivery. If we don't deliver what we agreed on, you don't pay the second half.

Every package includes a deployed product, a Loom walkthrough, and full handover of code and infrastructure.

Examples of products built this way
A few of my own projects that went from idea to something real using the same "small but real" MVP approach.

A real-world product built and launched using this exact process.
CSV2Pin

ShortlistHQ
A live product used by real customers, built as a focused MVP first.
ConsentCheck
A consent and compliance helper built as a practical tool for real workflows.
How this actually works in practice
Founder time is the scarcest resource. The process is built to keep you involved in the right moments, and out of the weeds everywhere else.
Share your idea
You send context, constraints, and examples. We choose the right package together.
Define success
We agree on what users must be able to do in v1 — and what's explicitly out.
Build sprint
Async updates, Loom videos, staging links. Minimal meetings and clear progress.
Launch and handover
Production deployment, walkthrough, and full access to code and infrastructure. The project ends with a complete handover.
Who this is for — and who it's not
For
- Founders who want to learn fast.
- Indie hackers testing a new idea.
- Small teams needing something real to show users or investors.
- People comfortable with clear constraints.
Not for
- Enterprise projects with heavy process.
- Open-ended retainers.
- Long discovery phases.
- Staff augmentation or extra hands.
Questions founders usually ask
If you don't see your question here, you can always just email and ask. The whole point is clarity before we start.
- Is this cheaper than hiring?
- Usually, yes. Hiring includes salary, time, risk, and management. This is a fixed price for a specific outcome.
- Do I own the code?
- Yes. Full ownership. Repo, infrastructure, environment variables, and docs are all yours.
- Can I extend after delivery?
- Yes. Many projects move into a second or third scoped sprint once v1 is live.
- What tools do you use?
- Modern, boring tools: Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind, Vercel, Supabase, Stripe — plus AI-assisted workflows.
- Do you offer refunds?
- 50% upfront, 50% on delivery. If we miss the agreed scope, you don’t pay the balance.
Ready to start?
If you know what you want to learn from v1, we can probably build it. Send a short note with your idea, your stage, and your ideal timeline. I'll reply with whether it's a fit and a suggested package.
