We Ship Your MVP in 8 Weeks.
Not 8 Months.
Your competition is already in Sprint 2. We take your idea from brief to live product in 8 weeks. Scoped on Day 1. Built week by week. Yours to own from the first line of code.
Every week without a live product, your competitor is collecting users you should have.
"We spent 14 months planning the perfect product. Our competitor shipped in 3. They had 12,000 users before we ran our first beta test."
Told to our team by multiple founders during intake calls. The pattern repeats.

How much has waiting already cost your product?
Enter your delay and monthly burn. The counter shows runway you have burned, opportunity cost, and days of user data you will never get back.

Monthly runway burn rate
How we calculate this
Delay weeks × weekly burn + 3× opportunity cost multiplier (industry standard for pre-revenue software products)
Total delay cost

An 8-week Redefine MVP costs $22K to $45K. If your delay cost already exceeds that, every additional week makes the decision clearer.
Stop the clock. Get your free proposal.Six build phases. Eight weeks. Your product ships on time.
We map your idea into a buildable scope in five days. No 6-week discovery engagement. You walk away with a feature list, architecture decision, and sprint plan before Sprint 1 starts.
Clickable Figma prototype covering every core user flow. You review it before a single line of code is written. If something needs adjusting, it costs minutes, not sprints.
Frontend, backend, database, and authentication: all built concurrently across three rapid sprints. You see a deployed, testable build at the end of every week, not just a progress update.
Stripe payments, Twilio SMS, push notifications, analytics, and any service your MVP needs. We scope integrations in Week 1 so there are no surprise additions at Week 6.
Real devices, real edge cases, real user flows. We test across the devices your first users will actually use, not a generic browser matrix.
Live deployment to your production environment or app stores, plus a 30-day post-launch support window. Any launch-day issue is our problem to fix, not a new scope discussion.
Sprint summary
You see a working, deployed build at the end of every sprint week. No surprises at launch.
Start Your 8-Week MVPToadys needed a full consumer app: in-app subscriptions, live video calls, and behavioral analytics. We shipped it to the App Store in 8 weeks.
Proof · App team at launch milestone
Toadys is a consumer platform built to engage millennial users through influencer video interactions, in-app subscriptions, and behavioral analytics.
Building three complex systems, subscription billing, live video, and behavioral analytics, in a single launch window. Each system had to work together from Day 1 without affecting usability, performance, or user trust.
We built Toadys' iOS app from scratch: a secure billing gateway for in-app subscriptions, WebRTC for live influencer video calls, and analytics tracking for behavioral data. Every component shipped together, tested together, and launched together.
- End-to-end mobile app development
- Google Play billing integration
- WebRTC video integration
- Analytics and behavioral tracking
The app launched on schedule with every core feature working from the first day. Early users responded positively to the live video model. Payments, analytics, and video functioned without post-launch fixes.
User reception
Early users praised usability, engagement flow, and the live video interaction format.

Payments, analytics, and video went live together, on time. No post-launch patches. Security and compliance were built in, not added after.

Six reasons founders hire Redefine over any other MVP development agency.
Fixed 8-week timeline, not an estimate.
We commit to the date in the contract. If scope stays locked, the timeline stays locked. No "we need 2 more weeks" at Week 6.
A live, working build on real devices by Day 3.
Before Sprint 1 ends, you get a live URL or TestFlight link. Not a demo. Not a staging file. A working build you can open on your phone right now.
You own 100% of the code from day one.
The repository is yours from kick-off. No IP retention, no "hand over on final payment" clauses. Your engineers can review and contribute from Sprint 1.
Senior developers on every sprint. No juniors hidden in the work.
The people in your sprint reviews are the people writing your code. No project manager relay, no junior proxies doing the actual build.
Full documentation and handoff. Included in every scope.
Architecture docs, API documentation, environment setup guides, and a 30-day handoff window are part of every engagement. Your next technical hire can onboard from the docs on Day 1.
No retainer required after launch.
We do not lock you into ongoing maintenance contracts. You can continue with us, bring in your own team, or walk away with a fully working product and clean code.
The questions founders ask most.
Small changes within scope are handled in the same sprint. Significant scope additions go through a fast change-order process: we assess impact in 24 hours and give you the option to add it to the current sprint or queue it for a Sprint 2. We never make unauthorized scope decisions.
No. Many of our best MVP clients are non-technical founders with a clear product vision. We handle all technical decisions during the build and document every one of them so your future technical hire has full context. We act as your technical co-founder for the duration of the project.
Yes, with clear scoping. The 8-week clock starts after Week 1 discovery. That first week is designed to identify and cut anything not core to your launch hypothesis. An MVP is not your final product. It is the smallest version that lets real users validate your core assumption. We push back on scope that puts the timeline at risk.
We recommend the stack in Week 1 discovery based on your product requirements, your team's existing skills, and the likely direction of your next 12 months. For web MVPs, that is typically React or Next.js with Node.js or Laravel. For mobile, React Native or Flutter. We do not force a preferred stack on you.
Expect to invest 2 to 3 hours per week: one weekly sprint demo (45 minutes), async feedback on delivered screens (30 to 60 minutes), and occasional quick questions answered in Slack. We do not need daily availability or project management from your side.
Is this a fit?
Right fit if…
- You need a working product to show investors or first users
- Your launch timeline is critical, not flexible
- You have a clear core hypothesis to validate
- You want to own the code after delivery
May not be a fit if…
- Your idea is still undefined and changes every week
- You need a team on monthly retainer from day one
- Your MVP budget is below $20K
