The USA-based company (name is under NDA) needed a high-quality MVP for a Retail Mobile Deal Discovery Platform delivered within a month at an affordable price. They chose MobiDev to complete this task. Our AI-as-a-Partner approach to MVP development matched their timeline and budget limitations. We delivered a high-quality working Minimum Viable Product with the required feature list that our client presented to the investors, securing the first round of funding.
The Story Behind
A USA-based startup company wanted to create a new B2C mobile application for discovering and tracking retail deals in local shops. They needed to move fast due to market pressures. At the same time, despite a low budget for development, they wanted to deliver an MVP with high-quality code as they needed to ensure the investments.
Business value
The client conducted thorough market research and created a product vision and a list of features to cater to their users’ needs. These features included deal discovery, filtering, and analytics of shopping preferences. Unfortunately, our client lacked the necessary budget and experience to hire an in-house team and develop a production-ready MVP with the listed features. They decided to hire an outsourcing software development company with expertise in rapid MVP development and chose MobiDev.
