Start your business with the Minimum Viable Product
Kern IT helps you launch your business with the MVP: test your ideas, collect feedback, and make your project grow !
Your project is important, and we know it. This is why we help you with a Minimum Viable Product - a first functional version of your idea !
The MVP is an initial version of a product with key features designed to form a solid foundation for growth and moving forward with the rest of your project.
At Kern IT, we can provide you with an MVP that can be used for product commercialization, as it is a refined version of your project. This version allows you to test your idea on the market, attract your first clients, raise funds, and move forward.
The advantages of the MVP
Fast Launch with key features
The MVP allows for deploying a simplified yet functional version of the product, including only the basic features necessary for its use, while remaining lightweight and quick to develop.
Mitigate Risks
Limit development costs before ensuring the product meets market needs. With an optimized budget and a precise objective, the MVP reduces financial risks.
Rapid adaptation
With an MVP, you can quickly adapt your project based on user feedback and requirements. This makes it a client-oriented approach, enabling it to meet a genuine market demand.
Market and user validation
The MVP enables testing of your idea on a larger scale, helping collect more varied feedbacks, and ensuring that the product truly meets end-users' needs.
Kern-IT supports you at every stage of your project...
... from conception to implementation
You bring the ingredients for your project's success; we have the recipe to turn it into a concrete, functional solution.
Proof of Concept (PoC)
The Proof of Concept (PoC) aims to demonstrate the technical feasibility of an idea or a specific feature.
We define together all the elements of your project and help you evaluate the feasibility of your idea before engaging in full development.
Prototype
Based on the PoC, our team creates a prototype - a preliminary version of your project, often interactive/clickable, meant for self-testing and visualizing the user experience and interface.
Its purpose is to collect early feedback on the design and ergonomics from potential users.
Minimum Viable Product
When your prototype is approved, Kern IT's technical team can build your MVP, a functional version with a minimal set of key features. This version marks the beginning of your business.
Its main objective is to learn quickly from real users and iteratively guide future developments.
Final product
Our experts will continuously improve the MVP with all collected feedback, making a final product of your project - a full, stable version, with all planned features and optimized for large-scale use by its entire target market.

FAQ
-
The price of an MVP depends heavily on its complexity. It might take only a few days to build a simple landing page, but an advanced prototype could require several weeks. The key is to reduce costs as much as possible while still obtaining solid data.
To optimize your budget, we focus on the essential features that validate your main hypothesis. We use agile tools and approaches for rapid and flexible development.
-
A Minimum Viable Product (MVP) can be used to test interest in a key feature with a simple landing page, to validate interface usability with a clickable prototype, to assess demand for a service by offering it manually to a small group, or even to test the viability of a physical product with a basic functional prototype.
Consider it the early, and often simplified, version of your project, allowing you to launch your project quickly and with controlled costs.
-
Yes, of course ! The advantage of a Minimum Viable Product is that it's an initial version of your product, so it's entirely possible to launch your business by commercializing your MVP.
With this version, you can start acquiring clients to grow your business and also raise funds to invest in developing a more elaborate product with each new release.
-
The choice of MVP depends on what you prioritize validating (market interest, usability, technical feasibility) and your available resources.
You will find below some clues to guide you:
- Test the market's interest for my idea: a landing page may be enough, but in some cases a clickable version is more convenient
- Understand the User Experience (UX): a navigable prototype is more relevant
- Develop a web application: application with limited key features is a good starting point
- Develop a mobile application: if you already have a web app, then a Progressive Web App is more recommended

Ces termes représentent les différentes étapes d'un projet: de l'idée à sa réalisation.
PoC : Le Proof of Concept (PoC) aims to demonstrate the technical feasibility of an idea or a specific feature. It helps confirm a technical approach before engaging in full development. The PoC answers the question: "Can my project be built?"
Prototype : It is a preliminary version of a product, often interactive/clickable, meant for self-testing and visualizing the user experience and interface. Its purpose is to collect early feedback on the design and ergonomics from potential users by using a visual support. The prototype answers the question: "How do I use my product?"
MVP : The Minimum Viable Product (MVP) is a functional version of a product launched with a minimal set of essential features to attract early users and validate market hypotheses. Its main objective is to learn quickly from real users and iteratively guide future developments. The MVP answers the question: "Does my product meet a real need and generate interest?"
Final product : The final product represents the full, stable version, with all planned features and optimized for large-scale use by its entire target market. The finished product is thus ready for commercialization and customer support. The final product answers the question: "Is my product complete and reliable?"
-
No, it is not necessary. The MVP can become a final product or remain a viable sufficient to meet the market's needs.
The MVP can also be used as a base to build another solution, or it can be left at that stage after testing your initial idea.
The decision depends on the success of the MVP, the users' feedback and your overall business strategy.
