MVP Development

Product launch requires wise decisions and prompt actions.
Minimum viable product stands for fast and lean development of your idea, making it a ready-to-use app in the shortest time with minimum expenses.

Check out the MVP development process by Apiko team

We can ensure your business is in line with the market demand

Define the list of requirements

To be certain that both sides are on the same page, Apiko continuously communicates with our client until we create a well-defined list of their requirements and value proposition.

Create wireframes

Before you invest any significant costs into product development, you need to test your ideas on the target audience. Wireframes/prototypes will allow you to find the gaps in your product and improve the user flow.

MVP development

Depending on your product architecture and roadmap, we advise you on the best technology stack, build a timeline, and form a development team for your future software.

Gather first feedbacks

For an MVP-type project, you may be sure to get 3-month project support to fix minor application issues. We also develop the next iterations and milestones for projects that need to scale.

Expand your product with additional features

After you have tracked the conversion rates, got early feedback, and analyzed the results, we will make your product more functional and with more features to satisfy your users' needs completely.

Here's what you get with minimum viable product

We ensure you end up with a properly functioning product by applying testing on each level of SDLC and paying great attention to every detail of your project

In-depth market understanding

Make sure your product can generate revenue and attract customers for your startup or established business before investing more into the software development life cycle. The main objective of MVP app development is to turn your idea into the product quickly, discover your customers’ opinion of it, and find out if your app meets their needs.

Flexible approach to building a strategy

The MVP development allows you to test your idea on your end-users, who will be able to start using the application with only the necessary features within a short period of time. Such an approach gives you the advantage of seeing what works and what doesn’t and flexibility to adapt the product to meet the real needs of your clients, even if it means changing some part of the initial app plan.

Big cost savings

Enter the market quickly and spend the minimum with the MVP app development. Limit the risks by creating the app with only the core features to see how your potential clients respond. This approach helps you gather data about the app concept to make sure you don’t spend more on unnecessary functions. Also, it allows you to validate your business idea, to create and invest in what your customers are certain to like.

How we build a minimum viable product

1

UI/UX design

The first important step is creating an intuitive, clear, and simple draft of app design. For your MVP development, it doesn’t need to have an extensive list of features, only the key ones to be cheap and fast to implement. Don’t forget that it’s a Minimum Viable Product, which has to represent the main idea of your app and its core functionality.

2

Prototype creation

Building a prototype shouldn’t be confused with a ready MVP website or mobile app. A prototype is what developers and other team members use to build an MVP app. This sample can be created with a graphical editor or a tool for prototyping, and further developed into an application that clients are able to use.

3

Back-end development

For your prototype to be able to operate, it needs to have the code. A single developer or a team of developers may be involved to deliver an application ready to be used by your customers. But one more thing remains! At first, your MVP has to be tested to make sure it functions well.

4

QA and testing

Now you can give your MVP app into the care of our Quality Assurance engineers. They will make sure your software is bug-free by testing it and creating a list with needed edits. When the developers finish with the improvements, your MVP app is ready to hit the market!

5

MVP app release

When your MVP app is ready to see the world, nothing is left but to publish it! Now it is time to market the application, gather feedback, and evaluate your further plan of action. Seeing how users respond to it will give you a clear understanding of what to do next.
Our team at Apiko will upload your software to the production server if it is an MVP website. If it is an MVP mobile app, we will publish your software on the Google Play Store and/or the App Store. After MVP release, you can decide what direction your product development should take, and dive into improving your MVP, turning it into a more advanced and functional app.
