IDEA VALIDATION & SCOPE DEFINITION
Before a single screen gets designed, we figure out what actually needs testing and what can wait. An MVP that tries to test five hypotheses at once usually ends up answering none of them clearly.
- Core Hypothesis Definition: Identifying the specific assumption your MVP needs to test, not just "will people use this."
- Feature Prioritization: Separating what's essential to test the idea from what belongs in a later version.
- Target User Definition: Getting clear on who the MVP is actually for, so feedback comes from the right people.
- Competitor & Market Review: Understanding what's already out there before building something that duplicates it.
