A Melbourne team, working on Canberra hours
- Time zone
- Australian Eastern Time. Canberra shares Melbourne's time zone all year, so scheduling is simple.
- Meetings
- Strategy sessions run over video, with weekly demos in your normal business hours.
- Local focus
- Canberra is home to many government suppliers, not for profits and professional services firms that need clear, accessible websites and reliable internal tools.
The problem
Why this usually goes wrong
Founders usually face two bad options. Hire a team before the idea is proven, or hand the build to the cheapest freelancer and hope. The first burns runway on recruitment. The second often produces something that has to be thrown away once real users arrive.
For Canberra businesses the fix is the same: a dedicated team that plans with you, ships every week and shows the work on a live board you can check from anywhere in Australian Capital Territory.

How we run it
Four steps, shipped in weekly sprints
- 01
Define the test
We agree on what the MVP has to prove and cut everything that does not serve that goal.
- 02
Prototype
A clickable prototype lets you test the flow with real users before development starts.
- 03
Build in sprints
Features ship weekly so you can demo progress to users, partners or investors along the way.
- 04
Launch and learn
We launch, measure what users actually do, and use that to plan the next version.

MVPs in Canberra: questions
Do you work with businesses in Canberra?
Yes. Canberra shares Melbourne's time zone all year, so scheduling is simple. Strategy sessions run over video, with weekly demos in your normal business hours.
How is mvps priced for Canberra clients?
The same way it is for everyone: one fixed monthly subscription for a dedicated product manager, tech lead, developer and designer, with no lock in contract. We confirm the plan on the strategy call.
How long does an MVP take?
It depends on scope, which is why the first step is cutting it down. Because we ship every week, you will have something working to show within the first sprints rather than waiting for one big release.
Do I own the code?
Ownership terms are set out in your agreement and confirmed on the strategy call. Our standard approach is that you own the product we build for you.
Can you build mobile apps?
Yes. We build web applications and mobile applications, and will recommend which to start with based on who your first users are.
