Home/MVP development

MVP development for startups.

Turn your idea into a working web app that real users can try, in days rather than months. We help you cut the idea down to the features that prove it, build it at a fixed price, and hand you code you fully own.

Keystride, a typing test web app built from scratch by Nova Site

/ Why us

A small team that builds fast, on purpose.

Big agencies quote months for an MVP. We are a founder-led studio that ships working web apps in days, because a smaller first version teaches you more, sooner.

Cut to the core

We help you decide what the first version must do, and what can wait for real feedback.

Built in days

Most of our web apps take four to five days once the scope is agreed.

Fixed price

An itemised quote before work starts, so you know exactly what the MVP will cost.

Web and mobile

Web apps and installable progressive web apps that work on any phone, tablet or computer.

You own everything

Code, design and data are yours, ready for investors or your own developers.

Built to grow

The same foundations as our production apps, meant to be extended, not rewritten.

/ Proof

Products we have built from scratch.

Two of our own products and a booking system a client sells to its customers. All live, so you can try them.

/ Common questions

MVP development questions.

What is an MVP?

A minimum viable product is the smallest version of your idea that real users can use and pay for. It does one job well, so you can test demand and learn what to build next before spending on the full product.

How much does MVP development cost?

Our MVPs start from $8,000, with a fixed, itemised quote once we have agreed the core features. Keeping the first version small is what keeps the cost down.

How long does it take to build an MVP?

Most of our web apps take four to five days to build once the scope is agreed. A larger MVP takes longer, and your quote states the timeline up front.

Do I own the code?

Yes. You own the code, the design and the data. If you raise money or hire your own developers later, we hand everything over.

Can you build a mobile app?

We build web apps and progressive web apps (PWAs). A PWA installs from the browser onto a phone, works offline and needs no app store, which is often the fastest way to test a mobile idea. We do not build native App Store or Google Play apps.

Will the MVP scale if it takes off?

It is built on the same foundations as our production web apps, so it is meant to be extended rather than thrown away. If growth calls for a different architecture later, you will have real users and data to plan it with.

Can I share my idea under an NDA?

Yes. If you would like an NDA before going into detail, mention it when you get in touch and we will sign one before the call.
