MVP – Build, Measure and Learn.

A central tenet of lean methodology, MVP development follows a build-measure-learn process.  The goal is to provide an immediate benefit while minimizing development costs and using data to add user value over time. The lean startup MVP method helps you to release a product that can be continually improved as you validate (or invalidate) assumptions, learn what users actually want, and build future iterations of your app that better serve your customers.

MVP, not a Product, but a Process

An MVP is a process that you repeat over and over again.

 

Identify your riskiest assumption, find the smallest possible experiment to test that assumption, and use the results of the experiment to course correct.  Validate the results with your target customers.
