FAQ
Common questions.
Can I move from MVP Studio to MVP Co-Build later?
Yes. Some founders start cash-only and convert to a hybrid engagement once we have working trust. The equity terms are renegotiated at that point.
Do you offer fixed price or time and materials?
Both. We default to fixed-price MVPs because it forces clarity. For ambiguous v2 work or growth engineering, we use time and materials.
What is your tech stack?
Next.js, TypeScript, Go, Python (Django/FastAPI), PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS/Hetzner. We pick the stack that fits the product, not the resume.
