You're in theMVP Stage

You've moved from idea to execution. There's something real, an interface, a product, maybe even a landing page. But this isn't launch yet. This is the laboratory. The mission isn't perfection, it's proof.

You're trying to answer the hardest question in startups: does anyone actually care?

This Stage Defined

The MVP (Minimum Viable Product) stage is about putting the lightest version of your product in front of real users to validate key assumptions. It's not about launching big, it's about learning fast.

You've shipped a functional product or prototype

You're showing it to early users or testers

You're unsure which features matter

You don't yet have paying customers

It's messy by design. The point isn't polish. The point is signal.

What Founders Are Generally Experiencing

Paralysis over when to launch ("It's not ready")

Fear of being judged on something unfinished

Confusion around what to measure (usage? feedback? conversion?)

Team tension about what's in vs. out

Early user feedback that contradicts assumptions

You feel like you're balancing on a rope: ship too fast, you crash; wait too long, you lose the window.

A Note from James

I've built countless MVPs, and I know the temptation to add just one more feature. But here's the truth: your MVP isn't about impressing investors or competitors, it's about learning. Let me help you strip away the nice-to-haves and focus on what truly matters: getting real feedback from real users.
