2. Development of Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
MVP (or ‘Minimum Viable Product’) is the software version with just enough features to present a new product concept to the market. GP Solutions has developed numerous MVPs for different markets and industry domains.
Our MVP Development Process
1. Data acquisition
Our employees proceed to collect valuable information regarding software design and features.
2. Discovery and analysis
We run a detailed breakdown of the software concept, perform target market and competitor analysis to collect relevant requirements.
3. Development
The final specifications are converted into an initial solution ready for presentation to the general public.
4. Launch & feedback
The MVP is launched live to collect and process responses from users. Afterwards, a product-market fit is defined for future development.
Advantages for Startups
Idea Validation
MVP helps to gather information that is sufficient to understand whether the project concept is working well in real life.
Cost-effectiveness
Startups benefit from MVPs by eliminating excessive initial investment during the risky early stages.
Valuable Experience for Development
The data assembled from initial MVP software users provide informative insights that can be applied during future developments.
Risk Mitigation
MVP approach is perfect for early discovery and management of hidden pain points prior to full-scale market launch.
3. Discovery and Analysis Service
Success requires preparation.
We assign teams of experts that help startup founders by running comprehensive business and technical analysis of their development projects.

FAQs
What should I pay attention to before starting software development for my startup?
There is a number of things that need to be considered carefully prior to development, including:
- Uniqueness of the idea;
- Market situation and competitors;
- Target audience;
- Development specification and requirements;
and lots of other things.
The discovery and analysis service by GP Solutions helps business owners to consider all important aspects, requirements and risks before moving on with the development stage. Contact Us if you’d like to schedule a call and learn more about it.
How to validate the feasibility of my startup idea?
The best way forward in this case is to first come up with a Minumum Viable Product (MVP). This is the most practical approach applied by startups worldwide. An MVP is the first software version containing just enough features to represent the product idea to the market. Not only does it allow you to check the product in a real-life environment, but it also helps to keep initial investment to a minimum.
What cooperation options does GP Solutions provide to startups?
The typical cooperation models we offer to startups are as follows:
- Fixed-price – the option that is well-suited for short- or mid-term engagements (for example, MVP development);
- Time & Material – the most appropriate option for mid and long-term project arrangements.
According to our experience, this is the most flexible approach for full-scale development. It can duly address the cases of changing requirements and workloads.
