FAQ's
What is an MVP prototype, and why do I need one?
An MVP prototype is a clickable version of your product idea. It doesn’t require coding but looks and feels real enough to:
- Test your core concept with users
- Pitch to investors with something tangible
- Save money before committing to full development
How is an MVP prototype different from a pitch deck?
A pitch deck explains your idea. An MVP prototype shows your idea.
Investors are far more likely to engage when they can click through flows and see how the product works. This creates credibility and helps you stand out from founders who only present slides.
How do you usually work with founders?
I collaborate in a lean, hands-on way. We define scope together (what absolutely needs to be in the MVP), then I design clickable flows in Figma.
You’ll receive prototypes you can test with users, share with investors, and hand over to developers when you’re ready.
Can you also help me define what goes into my MVP?
Yes. Many founders struggle with deciding what’s “enough” for an MVP. Part of my role is to help you prioritize features and keep the product as lean as possible—focusing only on what proves the concept.
How long does it take to design an MVP prototype?
Most MVP projects take 3–6 weeks, depending on scope and complexity. If you need something for an investor pitch fast, we can prioritize speed with a leaner version.
How much does an MVP prototype cost?
It depends on scope, but most MVP prototypes for early-stage startups start at €5.000–€14.000. I’ll provide a clear proposal after our first call. Remember: the cost of designing an MVP is a fraction of building the wrong product.
