MVP development for non-technical founders
Version Zero originally launched as an MVP-build studio for non-technical founders. We still ship founder MVPs — multi-tenant SaaS, B2B web apps, prototypes — but it's no longer our primary focus. Most of our work today is rebuilding live business websites for AI search.
If you're a founder with a clear idea and budget, we still have capacity for a small number of MVP projects each quarter. Have a read of the case studies below; if it sounds like a fit, get in touch.
