MVP Planning

An MVP is not a product with every feature you can imagine stripped down. It is the smallest thing you can build that tests your core business hypothesis and delivers real value to real customers. If you build too much, you waste time on features nobody asked for. If you build too little, you launch something that doesn't actually solve the problem. This playbook defines the line precisely and gives you a repeatable process to find it.

What it covers

• Restate Your Core Hypothesis
• Define What "Viable" Means for Your Specific Situation
• Feature Ruthless-Cutting
• Define Your MVP Scope Document
• Build vs. Buy Decisions
• Estimate and Schedule the Build
• Launch Criteria Checklist
• Post-Launch Learning Loop
• MVP Mistakes to Avoid

When to use it

Use it when deciding what to build first, what to cut, how to prioritize features, how to define "done" for a first launch, and how to structure the MVP build process.

Frameworks inside

The MVP definition, feature ruthless-cutting framework, build-vs-buy decisions, launch criteria, and post-launch learning loops.

Known limitations

A structured playbook, not a substitute for your own judgment or data. Results depend on your market, offer and execution.
