07 / FAQ
A few things
to know before
we begin.
Straight answers about timing, scope, the MVP, and support after launch.
Can an MVP really launch in 14 days?
Yes, when it is a focused MVP with one core user flow and scope agreed before the sprint. We do not promise to fit a large product, open-ended scope, or lengthy third-party integrations into 14 days.
What counts as an MVP?
One core problem, a priority user flow, and enough interface and functionality to test it. We approve the deliverable list and technical boundaries in writing before the sprint starts.
Do you work with pre-seed or YC startups?
Yes. We work with early-stage, pre-seed, seed, and YC applicants or companies on their story, brand, website, and MVP. We do not claim an official YC partnership.
Can we start before fundraising?
Yes. We can focus the first release on explaining and testing your idea with investors, customers, or a program.
What happens after the 14 days?
The launch sprint is complete. If useful, we can scope social media management or paid advertising separately; neither is part of the first 14-day delivery.
What keeps the 14-day timeline on track?
Available decision-makers, timely content and access, prompt feedback, and keeping the agreed scope stable during the sprint.
