Startups

MVP development in days, not months.

Runway is measured in months; a conventional MVP takes most of it. AIPOS OÜ runs a multi-agent system that builds, tests and documents production code around the clock. You get a real, working first build at a fixed price, with the code and intellectual property delivered to you.

The situation

The MVP eats the runway before the market can answer.

Founders need an answer from users, not a hiring plan. Yet the usual routes to a first product all spend the scarcest resource a startup has: time.

Hiring

A first engineering hire is a bet, not a product

Recruiting, equity negotiations and onboarding happen before a single feature exists. If the hire is wrong, months are gone with nothing to show investors or users.

Agencies

Hourly agencies price in their own uncertainty

A time-and-materials agency bills for the learning curve and for every change of mind. The estimate is a starting point, not a price.

Throwaway MVPs

A prototype you have to rebuild is not progress

No-code and quick-and-dirty prototypes often have to be thrown away at the first sign of traction. The second build then competes with the first customers for attention.

What you get, compared with the alternative

What you get Startups

A real first build, tested and documented, at a fixed price

The trial build is a genuine, bounded piece of your product, not a demo. If the result meets your bar, the full MVP scope is quoted at one fixed price.

  • A written scope description for the first build, before you commit
  • Delivery within 72 hours of your written scope confirmation
  • Production-grade code: tested, documented, delivered as a package with its git history
  • Full intellectual property transferred to your company
  • A fixed quote for the remaining MVP scope after the trial
  • Founding-client price of 4,900 euros for the first three clients, against a public reference

Compared with The first engineering hire

Months of hiring before the first feature

A founding engineer is a long-term decision with equity, management and retention attached. Ordering the first build at a fixed price lets you reach users first and hire with evidence later, when you know what the product is.

  • Recruiting and equity before any feature exists
  • A wrong hire costs months of runway
  • Management load lands on the founder
  • No product to show until the hire has settled in

Instead of hiring developers: the full comparison

Hiring versus ordering

24/7 from sign-off

Your project starts. It never stops.

Runway is spent by the calendar; this is not. From the moment your scope is signed off, an autonomous development system works on your product 24/7 — no nights off, no weekends, no sprint boundaries. Months of team output, delivered in days.

01

Starts within hours

Work begins within hours of your written scope sign-off. No recruiting, no onboarding, no waiting for a sprint to open.

02

Runs around the clock

Autonomous and continuous until delivery: no nights off, no weekends, no handovers, no pauses.

03

Progress you can see daily

Every change is tested and committed in AIPOS OÜ's own secure development environment. You receive a written progress report every day, and tested code of your product is delivered at agreed milestones — in full after final payment.

04

Architecture agreed first

The architecture and specification are designed in-house by AIPOS OÜ and agreed with you in writing before any code is written.

Choose this if you need serious development capacity fast, without hiring a team.

The process

From idea to a working build.

Everything is in writing, which suits a founder working across time zones and investors who want a record of decisions.

01

Describe the product

Send what should exist when the first build is done, the technology you prefer and your deadline. You receive a written scope description for the trial build.

02

Trial build, 72 hours

After written confirmation, a real piece of the product is delivered within 72 hours: tested, documented, with full IP. Fixed price 9,900 euros; 4,900 euros for the first three founding clients.

03

Fixed quote for the MVP

You judge the code and the speed on your own product. If you continue, you receive one fixed price for the rest of the MVP scope; the trial price is deducted in full.

04

Ship, learn, extend

The system keeps building in 24/7 cycles. Each change is tested and committed. When the market answers, the next scope is quoted the same way.

Trust & delivery standards

Your systems stay untouched. Your product arrives tested.

All development happens in AIPOS OÜ's own secure environment. We never connect to your code hosting, servers, cloud accounts or development environment, so no outside party enters your systems and your supplier and security risk stays small. You receive tested code as a clean package, not half-finished changes in your main branch, and you follow progress every day without watching any technical tools.

Code quality

How the code is built and handed over

  • Tests and independent review. Every change passes the automated test suite and an independent review agent before it is merged.
  • Documentation, tests, history. You receive the documentation, the tests and the complete git history of your product's code.
  • No dependency on our tools. Code and intellectual property transfer to you without any dependency on AIPOS OÜ's tooling: the product builds, tests and runs from the delivered package with publicly available tools.
  • 30 days of free fixes. Defects found within 30 days of hand-over are fixed free of charge, within the written scope description.
Project delivery

How you verify the work without seeing our environment

  • Specification first. A written specification with measurable acceptance criteria, prepared by AIPOS OÜ and confirmed by you before development starts.
  • A written report every day. By e-mail: what was done, which tests passed, where the work stands against the criteria, the next step, and whether anything needs your answer.
  • Preview at every milestone. A password-protected preview link where you try your product working, at every milestone.
  • Code you can audit. At every milestone, a test report and the product's code at that point as a file package: run it yourself or have an independent developer audit it. The complete code follows final payment.
  • Written acceptance. You accept in writing against the agreed criteria. 50% is paid on scope confirmation and 50% only after acceptance; then 30 days of free defect fixing within the written scope. All communication is by e-mail.

Prices

Two steps, both at a fixed price.

You see the price before any work starts. There is no hourly billing and no staff rental. The trial build is a real piece of your plan, and its price comes off the main project in full.

Step 1 · Trial build
€9,900fixed · excl. VAT

A real part of your development plan, delivered within 72 hours of your written scope confirmation as a preview link, a test report and a code package. Full intellectual property to you. 50% on sign-off, 50% after written acceptance; 30 days of free defect fixing. Deducted in full from the main project.

Founding clients
€4,900first three clients · excl. VAT

The first three clients receive the trial build for 4,900 euros in exchange for a public reference once the work is delivered.

Step 2 · Main project
Fixedquoted in writing · excl. VAT

The whole scope at one fixed price, delivered in days and weeks. Every change is tested and committed. Every project is built on a software architecture and technical specification designed in-house by AIPOS OÜ — reviewed and agreed with you in writing before development begins.

A good fit when

You know what the first version must do

  • A product idea that can be written down as a scope with acceptance criteria
  • A founder or team that works well in writing
  • A need for production-grade code that survives traction
  • Any stack; any country; remote only
Not a fit when

You are looking for a co-founder or a contractor by the hour

  • A technical co-founder or an embedded developer
  • Hourly billing for open-ended exploration
  • A clickable mock-up without working code
  • Work that requires calls or meetings

Questions

Questions founders ask.

Is the trial build a throwaway prototype?

No. It is a real, bounded piece of your product, delivered as tested and documented code with full intellectual property. It is built to be extended, and if you continue, the main project builds on it rather than replacing it.

How can an MVP be built in days?

AIPOS OÜ designs the architecture and specification in-house and agrees them with you in writing; a multi-agent system then builds, tests, reviews and documents in continuous 24/7 cycles that resume automatically. Twenty-four hours of its work equals four to eight weeks of a small software company, measured on AIPOS OÜ's own production systems, which is why a scoped first build fits in 72 hours.

What does it cost?

The trial build is 9,900 euros, fixed, and is deducted in full from the main project price. The first three clients receive it for 4,900 euros in exchange for a public reference. The remaining MVP scope is quoted at one fixed price after the trial.

Who owns the code?

You do. Full intellectual property in the deliverables transfers to your company on full payment, and the code is delivered to you as a package with its complete git history. The platform and methodology stay with AIPOS OÜ.

Which technologies can you build in?

You name the technology in the request form. The architecture and specification are designed in-house by AIPOS OÜ for your stack, agreed with you in writing, and the system builds against them.

Can we talk it through on a call first?

No. All communication is written, from the scope description to acceptance. That keeps every decision on the record and lets you work with us from any time zone.
