#+title: MVP and MVT

* MVP and MVT

- An **MVP** is a **minimal functional product** built to validate what customers actually want by observing real usage.
- An **MVT** (often called **Minimum Viable Experiment/Test**) is a **small, fast, low‑cost test** designed to validate a specific assumption before you build anything substantial.

**Minimum Viable Product (MVP)**
A simplified but working version of a product that early users can interact with.  
Purpose: validate product‑market fit and gather real behavioural feedback.

**Minimum Viable Test (MVT / MVE)**
A quick experiment to validate a single assumption — often before building an MVP.  
Examples: landing page, survey, fake‑door button, email test.

- **MVT** = “Should we even build this?”  
- **MVP** = “We think this is worth building — now let’s test the simplest working version.”
