MVP development: a working product in six weeks, deployed to your cloud
WeBuildStack is a remote-first software development company in Bengaluru, India, that builds web and mobile applications and the cloud behind them. For a startup MVP: one core flow, web or mobile, live on your own cloud account in six weeks: a written quote within 48 hours and an MVP in six weeks with deployment included, with team hours set to your timezone. 15+ engineers, 100+ projects.
Here is what the six weeks contain and how to choose an MVP partner. You get a written scope and fixed quote first, a demo every Friday, 40/40/20 payments, and the repository, cloud account and IP in your name from the first commit.
We build the whole stack. MVP in 6 weeks, deployment included.
What you get
- Week 1: scoping workshop, written scope, clickable prototype, repository in your GitHub, staging URL
- Weeks 2 to 5: the core flow end to end with sign-in, payments, admin and analytics; a demo every Friday
- Week 6: hardening, launch on your cloud account with CI/CD and monitoring, documentation, hand-over
- A "not now" list instead of scope creep: anything added is traded or quoted, so the six weeks hold
- Thirty days of fixes after launch; the same team can continue as dedicated engineers
How a typical MVP project runs
- Week 1
01Scope and quote
A technical lead reads your brief, asks the awkward questions and sends a written MVP quote within 48 hours.
- Weeks 2 to 5
02Build in weekly sprints
A demo every Friday. The tech lead reviews every pull request before it merges, and you can see the repo at any time.
- Week 6
03Launch, deployment included
We deploy to your cloud accounts, hand over the repos and a runbook. You own the code and the IP.
How to choose an MVP partner
Five kinds of partner can build a first version. Each is right for some products; here is the honest trade-off of each and where we sit.
| Kind of partner | Trade-off | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| AI app builders and no-code platforms | Fastest and cheapest first version; a ceiling on data model, integrations and compliance; exporting code is often limited. | Testing a simple, standard idea before spending on engineers. |
| Freelancers | Flexible and inexpensive for a bounded task; no reviewer, no replacement, continuity risk beyond a few weeks. | A well-defined piece of work with someone on your side to review it. |
| Product studios (where WeBuildStack sits) | A fixed scope, a tech lead accountable for delivery, weekly demos and code in your accounts; capacity is finite and the scope has to be written down. | A first release with real integrations, compliance or native apps, and a team that can continue after launch. |
| Large outsourcing firms | Procurement-ready and scalable; sales-led engagement, changing engineers and overhead in the price. | Multi-team programmes rather than a six-week first release. |
| In-house hire | Owns the IP and the knowledge; months to recruit, the most expensive seat, still needs a team around it. | The core of the product once the idea is proven. |
Where this service fits
- 01
A first release with one job
The riskiest assumption written in one sentence, the one flow that tests it, and nothing that does not serve it in the first release.
- 02
Everything an MVP must have
Sign-in, the core flow with empty and error states, payment if payment is the test, analytics on each step, an admin view, deployment, monitoring and backups, and the legal minimum.
- 03
Phase two from evidence
Two to four weeks of measured use after launch, then the next build planned from what users did, not from the original feature list.
MVP Development: common questions
Something not covered here? Ask a tech lead. We reply within one business day.
Yes, for a startup MVP: one core flow, web or mobile, live on your own cloud account in six weeks. A written scope and fixed quote within 48 hours, an MVP in six weeks with deployment included, a tech lead reviewing every pull request, and code you own; the team works in your timezone from Bengaluru, India.
Six weeks for a scoped first release: one week of scoping and prototype, four of building with a demo every Friday, one of hardening and launch. Larger scopes ship the core flow in six weeks and the rest in sprints.
Anything added is traded for something of equal size that moves to the "not now" list, or quoted separately in writing before work starts. The six weeks are a fixed container; the contents are negotiable.
You do, from the first commit. The repository is in your GitHub, the deployment is on your cloud account, and IP is assigned to you in the contract.
Yes. Thirty days of fixes are included, and the same engineers can continue as a dedicated team by the month, or the next phase can be quoted as a fixed scope from what the launch taught you.
Yes. We build from your designs or from a standard component library, and our part-time designer fills gaps. The week-one prototype is built from real components either way.
Usually a mobile-first web app installable on phones, unless the test needs push notifications, camera, background location or store distribution. Native apps are added once the flow is proven.
