High-quality, fully functional MVPs

Don't sacrifice functionality or quality. At Verticode, we pride ourselves on building fully functional, release-ready Minimum Viable Products.

Our Sprint Models

Every MVP is different but our process isn’t. We use two predefined sprint models to deliver efficiently, and we’ll guide you through the one that best fits your goals and scope.

Two Week Sprint Model

Week 1

1. Development Kicks Off

After the introductory calls and agreement on the scoping document, development work will commence on Monday. You will have a dedicated development team working on your MVP throughout the entire process.

2. MVP Build

The first iteration of development work takes 5 days, from Monday to Friday. During this phase, we will construct the initial draft of your MVP based on the agreed-upon scoping document.

3.  MVP Draft Delivery

The first draft will be delivered on Friday, allowing you to review the build over the weekend. The following Monday, a feedback meeting will take place, during which you can provide feedback to the development team.

Week 2

4. Product Optimizations

Following the feedback meeting, the MVP will be optimised based on your feedback over the course of 5 days, from Monday to Friday. You will have the same development team working on your amendments, ensuring a consistent journey for your product.

5. MVP Delivery

On Friday, your final MVP will be delivered. Depending on your hosting and maintenance preferences, we will either provide you with the code for your product or launch the MVP ourselves through our hosting service.

Three Week Sprint Model

Week 1 + 2

1. Development Kicks Off

After the introductory calls and agreement on the scoping document, development work will commence on Monday. You will have a dedicated development team working on your MVP throughout the entire process.

2. MVP Build

The first iteration of development work takes 2 weeks, from Monday of week one to Friday of week two. During this phase, we will construct the initial draft of your MVP based on the agreed-upon scoping document.

3. MVP Draft Delivery

Our Tech Stack

A tech stack built for a fast & scalable MVP

We build using the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js) – a modern, reliable technology set trusted by top startups and global tech teams.

What makes us different is how we combine this with our proprietary technology. This involves custom templates, AI-powered tools, and expert developers, allowing us to deliver high-quality MVPs in just 2 to 3 weeks.
