An MVP (Minimum Viable Product) is the simplest version of a product that can be launched on the market with the least possible features, but that still solves a problem or satisfies a real need.

It allows you to test an idea with the least possible effort and cost.

Practical examples Practical examples of successful MVPs

Dropbox

They simply created an explanatory video showing how the platform would work.

Result: thousands of people were interested before the product even existed.

Airbnb

The founders started by renting an air mattress in their living room and creating a basic website.

Result: they realized that there was a demand for alternative accommodation.

Facebook

It started as an exclusive network for Harvard students, with very limited functionality.

Result: its initial success allowed it to expand to other universities and then to the world.

Instagram

The first version (called Burbn) only allowed sharing photos with filters.

Result: the focus on one main feature made the app an immediate success.
