The smallest app that proves the business

Startups do not need an app — they need the smallest app that proves the business works. As a fractional CTO, I help founders scope ruthlessly, choose the right stack — usually Flutter for speed, native only when justified — and ship an MVP users can download, not a prototype that impresses investors and dies in production.

I have spent 15+ years building software across 6 countries, including agency work with Phaedra Solutions and Napollo where speed-to-market was the entire job. You get senior execution plus the strategic layer most freelancers skip: analytics, retention hooks, and a technical roadmap your next round can stand on. Explore full-stack development or engagement models.

What you get

Everything in your startup app engagement

  • MVP scoping and mobile strategy — a ruthless feature cut based on your riskiest assumptions — v1 ships in weeks and validates the business instead of burning runway.
  • Cross-platform builds that feel native — Flutter development for iOS and Android from one codebase: half the cost, simultaneous releases, and a UI users will not know is not native.
  • Backend and API architecture — Firebase or Supabase backends with auth, data modeling, and push notifications — designed to scale from 100 users to 100,000 without a rewrite.
  • App store launch and ASO — listings, screenshots, keywords, and review navigation for both stores, with analytics and crash reporting wired in from day one.
  • Investor-ready technical story — architecture docs, a credible roadmap, and a demo that holds up under diligence — your tech choices get questioned in every serious round.
How it works

From idea to launch, lean

  1. Discovery and audit

    A free call to map your goals, stack, and constraints — plus a technical audit of what you already have, with honest findings.

  2. Fixed-scope blueprint

    Architecture, milestones, and fixed pricing documented before any code is written — no hourly meters, no scope fog.

  3. Build in weekly sprints

    Working software on staging every week with structured feedback rounds — you watch real progress, not status reports.

  4. Launch and handover

    Production deploy, analytics wired up, documentation, and a support window so your team runs it confidently.

FAQ

Questions, answered

What should our startup’s MVP include?
Whatever tests your riskiest assumption — nothing else. On our strategy call we map the one user journey that proves the business and cut everything that does not serve it. Most MVPs I scope end up 40% smaller than the founder’s first list.
Flutter or React Native for our startup?
I usually recommend Flutter: one language, excellent performance, and faster UI iteration. React Native wins if your team already knows React deeply. On the blueprint call I recommend one with reasons — and talk you out of native unless you truly need it.
How much does a startup app cost?
Focused MVPs typically start in the low-to-mid four figures; complex apps with custom backends run higher. You get a fixed quote after discovery — no hourly billing and no surprise invoices.
Do you help after launch?
Yes — every build includes a support window, and most startups continue on a light monthly retainer for updates, fixes, and v2 features while you find product-market fit.
We are non-technical founders — can you guide us?
That is the core of the offer. I translate business goals into technical plans in plain English, flag bad ideas early, and make sure you never pay for technology you do not need.
