You can ship an MVP in 4 weeks. Most teams just aren't structured for it.
Hey PH π, Sunil here.
Something I've seen repeatedly: founders spending 3β6 months on an MVP that could've shipped in 4 weeks.
The issue usually isn't the engineering. It's the structure around it, when QA happens, how scope is controlled, how fast decisions get made.
With AI Velocity Pods, we've built the delivery model around fixing exactly that:
β AI agents handle the scaffolding from Day 1
β QA is automated and runs in Week 3, not after
β Everything hands off on Day 28, code, docs, CI/CD, all yours
40+ founders have shipped with us this way. $24.9K fixed price. 28 days average.
Not sharing this as a pitch, just something that might be useful if you're about to start an MVP build and wondering how long it should actually take.
Happy to answer questions about how the structure works. π

Spot on!As a dev-turned-founder, this resonates...I've seen the same scope creep issues firsthand.
