From Strategy to POC - We build your MVP

After understanding your target audience, we design intuitive user flow diagrams and customer experience maps. A high-fidelity prototype is created to visualize the functionality of your product before moving on to the final development stage. We ensure the quality of your MVP by following rigorous development and release standards.

Our process

Dive into our step-by-step process, mapping out how we transform initial concepts into a fully functional MVP, leveraging strategic planning, user-centric design, and efficient delivery management.

Ideation and Conceptualization

In this phase, our team works closely with you to understand your vision, target audience, and market dynamics. We brainstorm innovative solutions, define the core features, and shape the foundational concepts that will make your MVP stand out. Together, we lay the groundwork for a product that not only meets but exceeds user expectations.

Prototyping and Iteration

Move from concept to reality through the creation of prototypes that bring your MVP to life. Our prototyping process is dynamic, allowing you to visualize and interact with key features. Through iterative cycles, we refine and enhance the prototype based on your feedback and evolving requirements. This agile approach ensures that your MVP is not only functional but also aligns with your evolving vision and user needs.

User Testing and Feedback

User experience is at the forefront of MVP development. Engage real users early in the process through extensive user testing. Thinslices facilitates feedback loops that provide invaluable insights into user behavior, preferences, and pain points. By incorporating user feedback, we optimize the user interface and overall user experience, ensuring that your MVP resonates with your target audience.

Scalability Planning

Prepare your MVP for future success by incorporating scalability into the planning process. Our team works with you to anticipate future growth, both in terms of user base and features. Scalability planning involves designing a robust architecture, selecting scalable technologies, and implementing best practices to accommodate increased demand. This strategic approach ensures that your MVP can transition into a fully scaled product when the time is right.

Product Launch and Beyond

Celebrate the culmination of your efforts with a successful product launch. Thinslices assists you in orchestrating a strategic and impactful launch for your MVP. Post-launch, our collaboration continues as we monitor user feedback, track key performance indicators, and implement continuous improvements. We support your product's growth and evolution, ensuring it remains competitive and adaptive in the ever-changing market landscape.

What is Idea to MVP?

As clear as you might be on an idea in your mind, translating it into an actual product is challenging, to say the least. Over 14 years of doing this for our clients have enabled us to develop our own methodology of translating that idea into an actual digital representation, which users can test and offer feedback on.

Through Product Discovery and Product Design, we help you clarify your vision of the product, and translate it into a high-fidelity prototype or a technical proof of concept. Our software development teams can then define and implement an MVP, and even design a roadmap that paves the way for the next scale-up of your product.

How are the teams structured for MVP development?

Discovery and Product Design teams at Thinslices are cross-functional and include the following roles, in a composition that answers the project needs: UI-UX Designer, Project Manager, Software Development Lead, Full-stack Software Developer, Quality Assurance Engineer and Product Manager.

Following the Product Design phase, the software development team that will deliver the MVP will include the same roles, in a similar or slightly different composition, depending on the technical roadmap defined.

These team members bring diverse perspectives and skills to the table. They engage in iterative and collaborative work, conducting user research, prototyping, and testing.

What can I expect during the Idea to MVP journey?

We commonly suggest a Product Design phase to our clients, which initiates with a Discovery workshop. During the workshop, we work with you to define the product goals and we create user flow diagrams and customer experience maps to ensure your product is intuitive and engaging. Next, we transform your vision into a high-fidelity prototype, allowing you to visualize your product's functionality and user interface before development begins.

We set priorities and goals for releases and we make decisions regarding the tech stack. We then develop and release your MVP, ensuring it meets your specific business needs and adheres to the highest quality standards.

We remain committed to your product's growth and evolution by continuously enhancing it for scalability and adaptability in the ever-changing market landscape. Our goal is to empower you with a product that exceeds your current and future expectations.

How long does it take to create an MVP?

We usually take at least 5-6 months to create an MVP for a typical project. As with most custom solutions, it will depend on the complexity of the product, the size and composition of the team, and the specific needs and goals of the project.

Here is a breakdown of the time involved in each phase of the MVP development process:

Product Discovery: 1-2 weeks. The product discovery phase entails a comprehensive process of understanding the client's needs, mapping user journeys, defining technical requirements, and prioritizing features for the Minimum Viable Product (MVP). This collaborative approach ensures a clear understanding of the product vision and lays a solid foundation for successful development.

Product Design: 3-5 weeks. Product design encompasses a thorough process of defining the product's scope, objectives, user personas, and competitors. It involves creating high-level product roadmaps, critical user flows, design prototypes, and epics to guide the development process.

MVP Development: 4-6 months. This phase involves building the actual product, including coding, testing, and bug fixing. In this phase we also manage the software development lifecycle, ensuring that the product meets all quality standards, and providing user experience feedback.

Here are some factors that can impact the time it takes to create an MVP:

Complexity of the product: A more complex product will take longer to develop than a simpler product.
Composition of the team: We work closely with each client to determine the right composition in terms of roles and seniority for the project at hand.
Specific needs and goals of the project: The specific needs and goals of the project will also affect the time it takes to create an MVP.

Overall, it is important to remember that creating an MVP is an iterative process, and there will always be some unknowns along the way. We found that the best way to ensure that an MVP is created in a timely manner is to have a clear plan and to be prepared to make adjustments as needed. Our methodology ensures the blueprint for creating the plan and our experience makes us confident to be able to execute it within the timeline your project needs.

How much does it cost?

The cost of developing an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) can vary significantly depending on the complexity of the product, the size and experience of the development team, and the specific needs and goals of the project.

However, as a general rule of thumb, you can expect to pay between $160,000 and $350,000 for an MVP with a full product team consisting of a PO (product owner), UX/UI designer, Software delivery lead, three developers, and a QA engineer.

What can I do if I have an MVP and I'm not happy with it?

We’d be more than happy to meet and discuss your specific needs. Schedule a free consultation with our team to go over the specifics and we can help you identify how best to approach your MVP moving forward.
