Who MVP/Startup is for

Founders with an idea

  • Entrepreneurs without a technical team

  • Founders who want to validate a hypothesis as cheaply and quickly as possible

  • Founders who want to validate a hypothesis before raising investment

  • Teams looking for a technical partner at the start

  • Visionary founders who want to focus on strategy only, not the technical side

Early-stage startups

  • Projects that have validated the concept and are ready to move into building the product

  • Teams that need product packaging for investors

  • Teams that don’t want to spend a lot on the project and are focused on marketing and promotion

  • Projects scaling an MVP into a full platform

Existing businesses launching a new direction

  • Companies testing a new product without risk to the core business

  • Businesses digitizing an existing process

  • Companies that need to test new markets as efficiently as possible

What a proprietary exchange solves for business

Build a minimum viable product to validate the hypothesis — with core functionality sufficient for first users and market feedback — and move to the Proof of Concept stage.

Turnkey MVP

Build a minimum viable product to validate the hypothesis — with core functionality sufficient for first users and market feedback — and move to the Proof of Concept stage.

Problem:
The idea exists only in your head or on paper
Problem:
Risk of spending budget on features nobody needs
Problem:
No way to get live feedback
Problem:
Too long a path to the Proof of Concept stage
Problem:
No arguments for an investor or partner at an early round
Problem:
Building technical debt that will kill the project after the hypothesis is confirmed
Solution:
You get not mockups, but a working minimal product with core functionality. A tangible tool that first users can already test.
Solution:
Clear MVP scope. Only the minimum needed to validate the riskiest hypothesis is built. Budget is not spent on secondary features until demand is proven. Founders often fall in love with the full vision and want a “Swiss army knife” when the market only needs one key feature.
Solution:
Without a real product, surveys and interviews give a distorted picture. Launching an MVP delivers undeniable behavioral data and feedback — sign-ups, first transactions, drop-off points, direct comments. You decide to build or pivot on numbers, not assumptions.
Solution:
Hiring your own team is a long process that can stretch for months. You get a ready team and a faster path to PoC. A turnkey service compresses time from idea to first users so you can test the hypothesis while the window of opportunity is still open.
Solution:
An MVP with live users turns your pitch into a concrete conversation. You show you can not only invent, but also build, launch, and attract an early audience.
Solution:
Even within a limited budget, code and architecture are clean enough for iteration. After positive feedback you don’t face a full rewrite — you can keep improving the product quickly.

Turnkey startup

Package the startup end to end — the product including development, positioning, investor materials, and a technical foundation for scaling.

Problem:
No product and no technical team
Problem:
Scattered messaging and a look that’s not ready for market
Problem:
Not ready for an investor meeting
Problem:
A weak technical base that won’t survive growth
Problem:
Founder losing time and focus
Solution:
Full product development cycle — from architecture and design to code and testing. You get a working service, not just a presentation.
Solution:
Positioning strategy, naming, design, and messaging packaging. The product enters the market with a clear face for customers and investors.
Solution:
Not just a full document pack, but a concrete investor outreach plan and materials that answer their questions. Raising money takes more than a napkin pitch — investors expect structured documents and unit-economics proof:
Investment presentation (Pitch Deck)Financial model (P&L, forecasts)Business plan and roadmapStructured market and competitor overview
Solution:
A technical foundation for scaling is laid — scalable architecture, cloud infrastructure, DevOps practices, and the right database. That prevents fundamental rewrites later.
Solution:
Founders spend 80% of their time on operations and contractors instead of strategy, sales, and networking. The service works as a single operating partner. The founder is free to win customers and grow the business while technical and packaging work runs in parallel.
Problem:
No product and no technical team

Full product development cycle — from architecture and design to code and testing. You get a working service, not just a presentation.

What MVP/Startup specifically gives you

Turnkey MVP

The service closes the gap between an idea and proof of its viability. You get not just code, but a tool for gathering market truth — enough to consciously move to a full project stage or shut down a failing hypothesis in time without catastrophic losses.

You buy the ability to test your idea or hypothesis with a fixed budget and timeline, which significantly saves time and resources.

Turnkey startup

The service turns the chaos of scattered tasks — development, design, financial model, analytics, presentation, architecture — into a single launch with a predictable result, ready to show to first users and investors.

You buy a predictable outcome that saves your time and energy and brings the product to a level sufficient for future growth.

Why Defence.Investments is better than competitors

  • Real experience in fintech and Web3 startups

    Over 10 years, 30+ specialists, 100+ completed projects. Fintech, crypto, and IT startups at different stages — from the first prototype to platform scaling.

  • Fixed cost and project timeline

    Cost and timelines are fixed before work starts and do not change — unless new functionality or project changes appear.

  • We build so that the MVP doesn't have to be rewritten

    The architecture of the first version is designed for growth — so new modules can be added without reworking the core. That saves budget at the next stage.

  • Ready-made solution or full custom

    If a task can be closed faster with ready-made modules — we do that. If you need a product with non-standard logic — we design it from scratch for specific scenarios.

  • We implement without stopping your processes

    Diagnostics and design run in parallel with your team's current work. We integrate into existing infrastructure without breaking what already works.

  • We build architecture for growth

    The first product launches quickly but doesn't trap the project when scaling. New modules, roles, and integrations are added without rebuilding the core.

  • We stay after launch and help the project achieve results

    We support the release, help expand the platform, iterate on features, and strengthen operational scenarios as the business grows.

How the process works

We structure the workflow in stages to refine the details and deliver the expected result. At the first stage, we only need your idea — a detailed specification is not required. Then our team gathers initial inputs, clarifies goals, creates a project plan considering timelines, budget, and key milestones, and proceeds with development.

  1. 1
    Idea

    At the start, we need your idea and project goals.A detailed specification is not required — we define requirements ourselvesand design the solution based on your business model

  2. Initial interview

    We gather initial inputs and clarify business goalsto define product requirements and key prioritiesfrom the very beginning

    2
  3. 3
    Step-by-step planning

    Based on the inputs, we create a project planconsidering budget and timelines, defining functionality,priorities, and development sequence

  4. UX/UI prototyping

    We design the visual structure and user flows in Figmato validate logic and functionality beforedevelopment begins

    4
  5. 5
    Logic and financial model preparation

    We align platform logic, scenarios, and mechanicswith the client, forming the foundationfor the development roadmap

  6. Development

    The team builds the project using Agile, combiningfrontend, backend, and integrations into a unified systembased on the approved structure

    6
  7. 7
    Testing & launch

    To ensure stability and correctness, the productgoes through internal QA and beta testingbefore final release

  8. 8
    Result

    A clear understanding of the idea and its documentationfor further development stages.
