# MVP builds

> An MVP build is a fixed-length programme that takes a product idea to a working first version. DevRaxo clarifies the core hypothesis, prototypes, builds the smallest version that can test it with real users, and hands over a clean codebase so you can raise, iterate or scale from a solid base.

- Area: [Web & product](https://devraxo.com/services/web/)
- Price: from £3,900. Starting price; scope is agreed in week one.
- Timeline: 6–8 weeks
- Page: https://devraxo.com/services/web/mvp-builds/

## This is for you if
- You have a product idea and want to test it before committing a large budget.
- You need something real to show customers or investors.
- You want engineers who will challenge the scope, not just build it.

## The problem
- **Building too much too soon.** Every feature added before launch is a bet you have not tested.
- **No technical co-pilot.** Founders without an engineering partner often discover costly choices late.
- **Prototype code that cannot scale.** A throwaway demo that has to be rewritten wastes the money spent on it.

## How it works
1. **Weeks 1–2: sharpen the idea.** We pin down the user, the problem and the one thing the product must prove.
2. **Weeks 2–3: prototype and test.** A clickable prototype in front of real users before heavy engineering starts.
3. **Weeks 3–7: build the smallest real thing.** Production-quality foundations with only the features the hypothesis needs.
4. **Week 8: launch and measure.** Deployed, instrumented and handed over with a plan for what to learn next.

## What you get
- Product definition and scope
- Clickable prototype and user test
- Production-quality first version
- Analytics to measure your hypothesis
- Clean, documented codebase
- A next-steps roadmap

## Questions
### What makes a good MVP scope?
One user, one problem, one core flow. If you cannot describe what success looks like in a sentence, the scope is still too wide — we help you cut it.

### Can the MVP become the real product?
Yes. We build on foundations designed to grow, so you extend the code rather than replace it.

### Do you take equity?
No. We work for a fee and you own everything you pay for.

### Can you help us explain it to investors?
We can supply architecture and roadmap documents and a working demo. We do not write investment decks, and we will not overstate what a prototype proves.
