The Real Problem

You validated the idea.
Now what do you actually build?

90%

of startups fail — most after building something nobody wanted to pay for

3–4×

longer than estimated — the average time founders spend building their first MVP

$80K+

average spend before a first-time founder discovers their product has no market

This session is a practical, framework-driven walkthrough of how to scope your MVP, prioritise what goes in it, choose the right technology model, and put a launch plan in place that brings in your first paying customers, not your first polite feedback.

Why MVPs Fail

5 mistakes founders make 
before they write a line of code

These are not hypothetical pitfalls. They are patterns seen across hundreds of early-stage product journeys. Most founders make at least three of them.

MISTAKE 01 Building a product, not an MVP

They treat the MVP as a stripped-down version of the full vision. The result is 6 months of development and a product that's still too complex to learn from.

MISTAKE 02 Feature overload from day one

Every feature feels equally important. With no prioritisation framework, founders build everything and learn nothing. Scope creep kills early-stage products.

MISTAKE 03 Launching without a launch strategy

Build → deploy → wait. Most founders ship with no channel, no audience, and no clear acquisition plan. A good product with no distribution is still a failed product.

MISTAKE 04 Wrong technology choices for the stage

Choosing infrastructure built for scale when you have zero users. Or hiring full-time engineers before you know what you're building. Technology decisions carry compounding costs.

MISTAKE 05 No feedback loop after launch

They launch and move on to the next feature. Without structured feedback loops, every product decision after launch becomes a guess. Early customers are your most valuable asset, most founders stop listening to them after the first sale.

What You'll Learn

Five things you'll do
differently after this session

Each of these is a decision you are about to make — or have already made without a framework. This is what we'll cover, live.

What should you include in your MVP?

Most MVPs fail because founders can't separate what's core from what's nice-to-have. You'll get a clear scoping framework that forces you to define the one job your MVP must do, and eliminate everything that isn't that.

How do you prioritise features?

The 80/20 thinking behind early-stage prioritisation, and the simple tool Prashant uses with founders to rank what gets built first, what gets deferred, and what gets cut entirely. No full roadmap required.

What is the right technology model?

When to hire, when to outsource, when to use an elastic or agency model, and what each choice actually costs you at seed stage. Technology decisions made wrong in month one are the most expensive decisions you'll make.

How can you build a launch plan?

Your launch strategy should start when development does, not after. You'll learn how to identify your early adopter channel, build your pre-launch audience, and create enough distribution pressure to get meaningful signal on day one.

How do you get your first paying customers?

There's a meaningful difference between people who sign up and people who pay. We'll cover how to run early customer acquisition that produces paid commitments, not just traffic, and what to do with the feedback those first customers give you.

Why Join

Is this for you?

Built for a specific kind of founder. This session is practical and specific. Here's exactly who will get the most out of it — and who probably won't.

This is for you if...

check mark icon You've validated your idea and you're deciding what to actually build

check mark icon You're mid-build and something feels off about scope or direction

check mark icon You're a founder, CEO, CTO, or PM at an early-stage company

check mark icon You want a decision framework, not another product theory lecture

check mark icon You're in SaaS, HealthTech, FinTech, or any digital product space

check mark icon You've burned money on something that didn't get traction

This is not for you if...

close icon You want a step-by-step coding tutorial

close icon You're post-Series A with an established product and engineering team

close icon You're looking for high-hype startup motivation or general inspiration

close icon You've already shipped multiple products and have a product development system in place

close icon You haven't done any problem or market validation yet (start with Session #1)
