01Who it's for

If you need signal, not features.

Most founders come to me when they've been talking about the idea for six months and still haven't shipped.

I need to show investors something real — not a pitch deck.

We've spent 4 months in wireframes and haven't launched.

We keep scoping more features instead of testing the core idea.

I want to know in 60 days if this is worth quitting my job for.

02What you get

An MVP that actually validates.

Startup MVP development that ships in 30 days, not 6 months. Every project includes the four pillars below — scoped to prove one thing, then get out of your way.

01

Product Strategy

We ruthlessly scope the one thing your MVP must prove. Everything else is cut. I've watched too many founders burn 6 months on features nobody uses.

02

Brand + UI

A visual identity that looks venture-backed. Logo, type, color, UI kit — everything you need to not look like a hack-weekend project.

03

Working Product

React + Node + PostgreSQL. Auth, payments, core feature set, admin. Hosted, monitored, production-grade on day one.

04

Investor Materials

Marketing site, pitch deck support, and a demo you can confidently show to VCs. (I've raised money. I know what they want to see.)

03The Process

Four weeks. Pitch to production.

I.

Week 1 — Strategy

Scope the MVP down to one provable hypothesis. Everything else goes in the backlog.

  • Founder interview
  • Ruthless feature triage
  • Success metrics defined
  • Technical architecture
II.

Week 2 — Design

Brand, UI, and a clickable prototype founders can show users or investors mid-build.

  • Brand identity
  • UI design
  • Clickable prototype
  • Sign-off
III.

Weeks 3–4 — Build

I build it. All of it. Hand-coded, deployed to production, wired to analytics on day one.

  • React + Node + Postgres
  • Auth + payments
  • Core feature set
  • Admin + monitoring
IV.

Week 5 — Launch

You ship. I watch metrics. If something breaks in the first 30 days, I fix it.

  • Production deploy
  • Analytics live
  • First-user onboarding
  • 30-day hypercare
05Pricing
