From Idea to Live Product in 4 Weeks

You have an idea for an AI product. We design it, prototype it, build it, test it, and ship it to production. No drawn-out discovery phases, no prototype tools that can't scale. You bring the idea; we bring the product, live, in production, ready for real users.

Works Best For

Founders with an AI product idea who haven't raised capital yet.

You know what you want to build. You need to validate it with real users before raising a seed round. But hiring a team will take 3 to 6 months, and you need to ship now.

Typical fit: pre-seed founders with $0 to $500K raised, ready to put a real product in front of real users.

What We Deliver

A Working MVP in Production

A working MVP means real code, deployed to production, ready for actual users. Not a prototype. Not a no-code demo. A product built to handle real traffic, real data, and real growth.

01

Production-Ready Code

Full technical stack - backend, frontend, database, integrations, analytics. Built to handle real users from Day 1.

02

High-Fidelity Prototypes

Before we build, we validate. Interactive prototypes let you test the idea with early users and refine the product before engineering begins.

03

4-Week Timeline

From first call to MVP in production. We ship fast because we've done this 50+ times and we know what works.

Process

How It Works

Four weeks. Four steps. One working product at the end.

  1. 01

    Alignment Call

    We hear your idea, understand your vision, and map out what needs to be built. We define scope, timeline, and success metrics together.

  2. 02

    Design & Prototyping

    We create high-fidelity prototypes you can test with early users. This validates the idea before we write a single line of code.

  3. 03

    Development & Testing

    Our team builds the full stack - backend, frontend, integrations, analytics. QA ensures everything works before launch.

  4. 04

    Launch to Production

    We deploy to production, set up monitoring, and hand off a live product. You're ready to onboard real users.

Testimonials

Trusted by founders building the future

We hired Tequity shortly after closing our pre-seed, and since then they've completely taken over our frontend and DevOps work. Their CTO Rahul consults on high-level planning and shapes our technical roadmap. Their engineers are extremely responsive - typical turnaround is 1 day for critical bug fixes, 7 days for new features, and 6 weeks for entire MVPs. The software we built together is now used by multiple leading American biopharma companies. Our partnership has allowed us to build a professional product while keeping the team lean and focusing on our core differentiators. I recommend Tequity for any startup from angel round through Series B and beyond.
