SaaS MVP Development — idea to shipped product in weeks
I build SaaS MVPs that are real products, not prototypes — authentication, billing, a working core feature, and an admin view, deployed and taking users. Most launch in three to six weeks. The goal is not a demo you show investors; it is a product you can charge for and learn from.

Where teams get stuck
Agencies quote 4 months and $40k
Traditional agencies staff a project manager, a designer, two developers and a QA lead onto work that one senior engineer can do faster. You pay for the coordination overhead, not the code.
No-code hit its ceiling
Bubble and Airtable get you to a first version, then break the moment you need real auth, custom billing logic, or an API. Rebuilding later costs more than building properly now.
You are burning runway on scoping
Every week spent in specification documents is a week not spent talking to users. I scope in one call and start building the same week.
What you get
- Authentication and user accounts (email, OAuth, magic links)
- Subscription billing with Stripe — plans, trials, upgrades, webhooks
- The core product feature, built properly rather than faked
- Admin dashboard so you can see and manage what users are doing
- Responsive UI that works on mobile from day one
- Deployed on your infrastructure with CI, environment config, and error tracking
- Clean, documented, handover-ready codebase you fully own
How it works
- 01
Scoping call
One call to define what the MVP must do and — more importantly — what it must not do. You get a fixed scope and fixed price the same day.
- 02
Week 1: foundation
Auth, database schema, deployment pipeline, and the app shell go live. You get a working URL on day five, not week five.
- 03
Weeks 2-4: core product
The feature that makes your product worth paying for. You see progress in a staging environment continuously and can redirect at any point.
- 04
Launch and handover
Billing switched on, monitoring in place, code and docs handed over. Two weeks of bug fixes included after launch.
