An MVP is not a smaller version of your final product.
From Idea to MVP: What You Actually Need to Build
An MVP is not a smaller version of your final product.
It’s the simplest product that can validate a real problem.
The goal of an MVP is not perfection — it’s learning.
A good MVP focuses on:
One core user
One core problem
One key action
Instead of building 10 features, build the one flow that proves users care.
At Byond, we design MVPs around user behavior, not feature lists.
Because the fastest way to fail is to build everything before knowing what actually matters.
