What you get
What’s included in MVP development for startups
Scope to launch
The smallest set of features that tests your idea with real users.
Design
Clickable flows and screens before development starts.
Build
A production-ready web app with sign-up, payments and an admin area.
Analytics
Events and funnels in place so you can see what users do from day one.
Launch
Hosting, domain, email and monitoring set up.
Next version
A plan for version two based on what the first users show you.
Tools we use: Next.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Stripe, Vercel.
Choosing
What should you build your MVP with?
Start with the action your users need to take. A web app is quick to change and does not need a store review. A mobile MVP fits when the core action needs the camera, location or frequent notifications. That choice affects what you need to build around the action, so identify that action before choosing a platform.
No-code tools such as Bubble, Glide or Softr can test demand quickly. They become harder to work with as custom logic and usage grow, or if you later move to code. A coded MVP fits when the value depends on custom logic, data or integrations, or when you intend the first version to grow into the product.
A marketplace has another option: recruit suppliers by hand at first, while building software for the side whose behaviour you need to understand. Decide how you will test payment too. Charging from the start tests willingness to pay; a free beta can attract more users but provides weaker evidence that the product will sell. We help you decide what the first version needs and plan what comes next.
Local
What Amsterdam businesses need from an MVP
Zuidas is a financial and legal hub in Amsterdam. A financial or legal organisation there testing a new product line needs a separate first version that does not disrupt its core business. A working product with real usage data also gives a startup preparing to raise funds something concrete to show investors, so its scope needs to support testing with real users.
The Amsterdam area is home to headquarters of large corporations and banks. A first-time founder working on an idea for that business environment needs to test it with real users before committing savings or raising money. A consultant turning their knowledge into software needs help deciding what belongs in the first version and then building it.
Rules
What an MVP in the Netherlands needs to handle
If your MVP takes consumer payments, we set up checkout to offer iDEAL | Wero, which lets customers pay directly through their own bank. Make that choice part of the payment flow when you agree the scope.
For tracking cookies, we set up a consent banner that asks visitors for explicit consent before those cookies are set. Pre-ticked boxes and cookie walls do not provide valid consent. Functional and analytical cookies that do not store sensitive personal data generally need no consent when visitors are informed.
How it runs
How an MVP project runs with us
We work remotely over video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards. India is 4h30m ahead of the Netherlands, or 3h30m ahead during Central European Summer Time, from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October. The shared board gives you a place to follow the work across that difference.
- 01
Design
We create desktop and mobile page and screen designs, and you give feedback before development starts. That gives you a chance to refine the screens before they are coded.
- 02
Prepare users
While the build is under way, you line up people who have agreed to try the product and give honest feedback. Their participation gives you something to learn from after launch.
- 03
Launch
We set up hosting, the domain, email and monitoring. Your first users then have a working product to try, with the launch setup in place.
- 04
Learn
Review analytics alongside short user interviews. The numbers show where people stop; their explanations help you understand why they stopped.
- 05
Plan the next version
We use what the first users show you to shape the plan for version two, so the next set of work follows the evidence from use.
Checklist
What to have ready before we talk
Bring enough detail to discuss the problem and make a scope decision.
- ProblemWrite it in a sentence, name who has it and bring evidence that they care, such as interviews or a waitlist.
- Current alternativesNote what users do today, including spreadsheets or manual workarounds, and where those approaches fall short.
- SuccessChoose the result that would prove the idea, such as repeat use or paid conversions.
- FeaturesSeparate must-haves for the core loop from later ideas, with a reason for each must-have.
- DecisionSet the target and the decision it will trigger before building starts.
Cost & time
What affects the cost and timeline of MVP development?
The work changes with the flows and features you include.
User types
Each type needs its own flows; a marketplace with both sides is close to two products sharing a backend.
Payments
One-off card payments are simpler than subscriptions, split payouts or held funds, which add rules and testing.
Live features
Chat and live updates add more work than their screen count suggests.
Features held back
Settings, extra roles, multiple languages and complex dashboards can wait until users ask for them, saving work before launch.
Avoid
Mistakes to avoid when building an MVP
Building too much
Every feature added before launch delays learning and makes it harder to tell what users value. Keep the first build focused.
Building too little
A broken sign-up or confusing first screen can cause a test to fail for reasons unrelated to the idea. Make those essential steps work.
Treating the code as disposable
MVP code often becomes the product. Keep it clean, documented and tested around the core loop.
Questions
Asked by businesses in Amsterdam
Page updated 5 November 2026
What does an MVP development company do?
We turn an idea into a product people can use and test. Clickable flows and screens let you check whether people understand the idea before development starts. The working MVP goes further, with real sign-up, real payments and safely stored data, so you can see what users actually do.
How much does MVP development cost?
There is no fixed price for the work: the agreed scope drives the cost. Integrations with outside systems add work, while AI features need prompt design and testing against real examples. Those choices change what needs to be built and checked, so they belong in the scope discussion.
How do I choose an MVP development company?
Choose a team whose working approach lets you discuss the product directly with the people building it. At MSH Technologies, you talk to the designers and developers themselves. That gives you a direct route for discussing the screens, the build and the decisions that arise during the work.
What is included beyond the user-facing screens?
We put analytics events and funnels in place so you can see what users do and where they drop out of the core loop. A minimal admin area also lets you approve users, correct records and handle refunds behind the scenes without needing a developer for those tasks.
Who owns the MVP after it is built?
You own your code, content and domain, with no lock-in. That ownership covers the product assets as well as the domain associated with it. You can make your decisions about those assets without being locked into the studio that built the first version.
What happens after the MVP has been tested?
Use the agreed success criteria to decide whether to continue, change direction or stop. If you continue, the work beyond the MVP includes repaying shortcuts, adding tests around the core loop and automating manual steps as volume grows. The decision follows the evidence from the initial product.
