How we work
Two stages. One de-risked path.
Validate the WHAT before you spend on the HOW. Stage 1 ships a clickable prototype in 14 days; Stage 2 turns it into the production MVP — only when you're ready.

Clickable Prototype
- Every screen, every user flow — clickable
- Responsive web prototype on a shareable Vercel URL
- Black-on-white components, polished
- Source code transferred to you on day 14
- Built by senior engineers (no juniors, no agencies)
Best for: Validating with stakeholders. Pitching investors. Locking the spec before writing production code. - Stage 2 — when you're ready028–16 weeksfrom $20,000
Production MVP
- Full backend, database, auth, payments
- Custom branding and design system
- Same codebase — no rewrites from Stage 1
- Deployed to production on Vercel
- Source code yours forever
Best for: Post-validation launches. When you're ready to acquire real users.
Refine the WHAT for $5k. Then build the HOW for $20k+. Never the other way around.

Case study
How Saynice nailed the product spec in 14 days — then shipped an MVP that out-priced Senja, Testimonial.to and VideoAsk.
- 14 daysIdea to clickable prototype
- 4 layoutsValidated before MVP build
- $0 vs $30-59Free tier vs. competitors
- Problem
- Saynice's founder wanted to compete with Testimonial.to, Senja and VideoAsk — but the product had a dozen open questions. Which testimonial layouts matter? Which card types? Where does the embed fit on a customer's site? Locking it all down on paper was hopeless — and burning months of MVP budget to find out via code was even worse.
- Solution
- In 14 days we turned the vision into a clickable, responsive prototype: every screen (collection forms, widget configurator, embed previews, dashboards), every layout variant (carousel, grid, masonry, list), every card type (text, photo, audio/video). The founder walked 30+ creators and agency owners through it via a shared link — no install, no demo gymnastics, just "click around for two minutes and tell me what is missing".
- Result
- Two features that looked obvious on paper got killed after the first round of feedback. Four layout variants that nobody had prioritised turned out to be the most-clicked. The prototype became the exact spec for the MVP — same screens, same flows, no scope creep. Today Saynice is live at saynice.io with full audio/video support, unlimited testimonials on Pro, and zero wasted engineering on features users never asked for.
Before the prototype I was guessing what to build. After 14 days I knew. The MVP shipped with zero scope creep because every screen had already been pressure-tested by real prospects.

The Launch14 method
See it. Click it. Refine it.
In two weeks we transform the idea in your head into a clickable prototype you can actually navigate. Built as a responsive front-end (not Photoshop, not a slide), it lives at a shareable URL and behaves like a normal website. Default black-on-white components — the goal is to lock down WHAT the product is, before anyone argues about HOW it should look.
Click through every screen the way a user would
Sign-up, onboarding, the main dashboard, settings, every empty state and edge case — all wired up as real, navigable screens. You stop describing what you want and start pointing at it. Stakeholders, co-founders and advisors finally see the same product.
Find the awkward steps before they become $30k bugs
The bad transitions, the missing screens, the steps that take five clicks instead of one — they all jump out the moment you start clicking. Catch them now while everything is two refactors away from a final answer, not three sprints away from a release.
Walk into design and engineering with a finished product spec
Once you stop tweaking the prototype, you have something better than any brief: a working reference of the exact product to build. Designers and engineers stop guessing. Estimates tighten. Scope creep dies. Everything downstream gets faster and cheaper.

FounderFounder @ Launch14. 21 years shipping software for enterprise and scale-up teams.
21 years shipping software for some of Poland's biggest brands — PGE, ING Życie, LOT, Onet. I have seen, from the inside, what kills startup MVPs: vague specs, late pivots, and engineers building the wrong thing because nobody pressure-tested the idea first. Launch14 is the playbook I wish I had on day one of every product I built. One person leading the work. Two-week sprints. Your vision, made tangible — so you can see it, click it and refine it before the heavy build starts.

What founders say
Built for fast-moving founders.
Three patterns we hear after every sprint:
“I stopped explaining the product in meetings. I sent a link and everyone finally argued about the same screens.”
B2B SaaS founder
Pre-seed, EU
“We killed two ‘obvious’ features after the first external clicks. That alone paid for the prototype.”
Indie hacker
Micro-SaaS
“Estimates from dev shops dropped once they clicked through the flows — scope was no longer a guessing game.”
