MVP sprint - frequently asked questions

Clear answers about scope, pricing, ownership, stack, and what happens after launch.

What do I get at the end of the 14‑day MVP sprint?+

A production‑ready thin slice: real auth, one core flow, payments/analytics (where relevant), docs, and a live deploy. You own the repo and infrastructure.

How is pricing structured for the MVP build?+

Fixed scope, fixed fee. I agree the thin slice with you on Day 1 and price it upfront - no hourly overages or surprise invoices.

Who owns the code and cloud accounts after delivery?+

You do. Repos are transferred to you, and cloud/services are created in your organization, with access handed over securely at demo.

What tech stack do you use for MVPs?+

Defaults are React/Next.js or a lightweight React app, a Node/TypeScript backend, hosted Postgres or Mongo, Stripe for payments, and simple product analytics. I adapt where your context needs it.

Can we change scope mid‑sprint?+

New ideas go to the backlog for Sprint 2. This keeps the thin slice on track so you hit a Day‑14 demo and learn sooner.

What happens after launch?+

I can schedule Sprint 2 immediately: hardening, onboarding polish, integrations, and the next 1-2 features driven by your user data.

Is this an MVP or a prototype?+

An MVP here is usable, deployable software designed to prove a job‑to‑be‑done. It is not a throwaway prototype.

The Fast Stack

A ruthless focus on the few features that prove the thesis. Everything else waits.

01

Scope Smart

I compress discovery into decisions. Define one job‑to‑be‑done, one persona, one success metric.

02

Build Lean

Ship the thinnest slice that creates value. Production‑grade stack, zero ceremony, crisp documentation.

03

Ship & Hand‑Off

Demo, deploy, docs. You own the repo, infra, and runway to iterate or raise.

About me

I'm Dhruv - I build AI apps, SaaS platforms, and mobile MVPs for startup founders. I spent four years at the BBC shipping election dashboards to millions of users, then partnered with the United Nations, OCCRP, and 20+ startups to design and ship products end-to-end. Today I specialize in AI-powered products: LLM integrations, intelligent agents, RAG pipelines, and the full-stack infrastructure around them. My toolkit is React/Next.js, Node, React Native, Python, MongoDB, and every major LLM API. Fixed scope, 14-day sprints, clean handoff - you own everything.
