What is Guided MVP Builder?
This is not a course. It's not a dev agency. And it's not a generic startup program.
It's a small-group, hands-on program where you build your MVP while I guide scope, architecture, and decisions week by week.
- •Weekly working sessions
- •Scoped feature plan
- •Real product by the end
- •Validation-first
- •Production-ready foundation
Why most founders get stuck
- •Too many features
- •Unclear customer
- •Bad technical decisions early
- •Overpaying for dev
- •Endless rebuilding

What founders leave with
This isn't just about shipping code. It's about transformation. Founders leave with clarity, confidence, and a product that answers the right questions.
The goal is to understand what you're building and why, so you can make better decisions long after the program ends.
Why founders work with me
I've built MVPs for accelerator founders, non-technical teams, and first-time founders who needed clarity more than code.
People aren't buying the curriculum. They're buying my judgment. Every decision is optimized for validation and waste prevention.
✓Partner developer for multiple accelerator cohorts
✓Built MVPs for 6+ non-technical founders
✓Specialized in scope control + validation
✓Known for pushing back on unnecessary features
✓Focused on business risk, not just code
