Most founders know what they want to build but funding a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) without traction can be slow, risky, and expensive. That’s where we come in.
At RSVR, we help early-stage startups bring their MVP to life through a shared-investment model. You fund half of the MVP development cost and we fund the rest aligning incentives from day one and building something that’s genuinely scalable.
Why MVP Funding Matters
Launching an untested product or overspending before validation are two of the most common startup pitfalls. MVP funding reduces upfront cost, accelerates time to market, and ensures you’re building something aligned with actual market demand.
What Is MVP Funding?
MVP funding at RSVR means we co-invest in the development of your Minimum Viable Product — sharing cost, risk, and strategy. We’re not just a service provider. We’re your early product partner.
You bring:
- A clear idea and commitment to launch
- Market insight or early validation
- A budget to co-invest (typically 50%)
We bring:
- Startup-focused product leadership
- Technical expertise and dev capacity
- A structured MVP-first approach to building right
