MVP development company for UK founders
We build first versions of software products for UK founders and small companies. The first call is free, and after it you get a written proposal with the price and timeline. An MVP starts from £1,999, depending on your requirements, and takes 4 to 5 weeks.

What an MVP costs
An MVP is priced on your requirements. The figure here is a starting point, and the price in your written proposal moves up or down with the size and complexity of what you need.
MVP, from
£1,999
The starting point for one core workflow, user accounts with as many roles as you need, an admin panel and 30 days of support. Usually built in 4 to 5 weeks.
- ProductThe next step up: more workflows, an API and up to three integrations.
- From £4,999
- EnterpriseMulti-tenant accounts and a security review. Quoted after a call.
- From £9,599
- Care planUpdates, backups and two hours of changes after launch.
- £199/mo
If the first call shows the idea needs more than one core workflow, we say so in the proposal, before you have committed to a build. Support hours can also be bought separately, from £50 per hour, as needed, without a monthly plan.
What goes into an MVP
An MVP is the smallest version of your product that a real customer can use and pay for. Ours always contain the same five things.
One core workflow
The single thing people come to your product to do: book a slot, place an order, submit a report, find a match. We build that one path properly, from first screen to confirmation, and leave the rest for later.
User accounts
Sign-up, login and password reset, with as many user roles as you need.
An admin panel
So you can see who signed up, correct records and answer support questions yourself.
The plumbing
Emails that arrive, hosting on AWS and a repeatable way to release updates.
30 days of support
Fixes for anything that surfaces once real users arrive.
From first call to launch
The build takes 4 to 5 weeks once the proposal is agreed, if decisions are made promptly.
A free call
30 minutes
You explain the idea and who it is for. We ask what you have already tested, and say whether we think it is ready to build.
Written proposal
No charge
We write down what the first version includes and what is left out, with the price and timeline for your requirements. You agree it in writing before the build starts.
Build
4 to 5 weeks
We build what the proposal describes. New ideas go on a list for the next version instead of stretching this one.
Launch
30 days of support
Real users, real feedback. Then a support plan, or a Product build when you need a second type of user.
When you should not build an MVP yet
The cheapest MVP is the one you did not need. Some ideas can be tested for the price of a landing page.
Wait, and test it by hand, when
- You have not yet spoken to the people you expect to pay.
- A form, a spreadsheet and your own evenings could deliver the service to the first ten customers.
- You are unsure which of three ideas to pursue. A free call may be all you need for now.
Build when
- People already pay for the manual version and you cannot keep up.
- A pilot customer or a waiting list is ready to use it.
- The workflow cannot be faked with off-the-shelf tools.
- An investor or partner needs to see working software, not slides.
What we build MVPs with
Plain, well-documented tools. An MVP that works will be extended, possibly by someone else, so it should be easy to pick up.
- Laravel
- Accounts, emails, payments and background jobs come with the framework, so the budget goes on your workflow.
- Custom or Filament admin dashboard
- A working admin panel in days with Filament, or built to measure when the product needs it.
- Next.js and React
- When the interface itself is what you are selling, or the public pages need to rank.
- MySQL and AWS
- A standard database on standard hosting, with room to grow.
The same building blocks, live
Prep2Pass was not sold as an MVP, but it is made of the same parts: registration, a booking workflow and an admin panel for the office.

Working with us from anywhere in the UK or worldwide
Founders outside London sometimes assume they need a local agency or regular train journeys. You need neither. Scoping is a few video calls and a shared document, and during the build you message the developers directly. A founder in Aberystwyth or Hull gets the same build as one in Shoreditch, priced the same way.

Questions buyers ask
Straight answers. If yours is not here, email us.
- What do I get in an MVP from £1,999?
- One core workflow built end to end, user accounts with as many roles as you need, an admin panel, hosting set up and 30 days of support after launch. £1,999 is the starting point, and the price depends on the size and complexity of your requirements. The written proposal lists every screen, so nothing is left to interpretation.
- What happens before the build starts?
- A free 30-minute call, then a written proposal: what the first version includes, what it leaves out, and the price and timeline. You agree it in writing before any work starts, and there is no charge for the proposal.
- My product has two kinds of user. Is that still an MVP?
- It can be. We do not cap user roles on an MVP, so buyers and sellers, or clients and staff, can each have their own accounts. What keeps it an MVP is one core workflow. If each kind of user needs several workflows of their own, an API or integrations, it is closer to our Product build, from £4,999, and the proposal will say so.
- Can it be built faster than 5 weeks?
- Only by making it smaller. We would rather cut a feature than rush the one that matters. If a deadline is fixed, tell us on the first call and we will scope to it.
- What happens when the MVP works and needs to grow?
- We keep building on the same codebase. Small additions fit in a Growth support plan at £599 a month, and bigger steps become a Product build. Nothing gets thrown away.
Tell us the idea in one paragraph
We will tell you on a 30-minute call whether it is an MVP, something bigger, or something you can test without us.
