Startup MVP Development Company in North America

Accelerate your MVP launch across North America with Cabot’s seasoned product strategists and engineering leaders.

Building the Next Generation of North American Unicorns

Cabot Technology Solutions partners with venture-backed founders, corporate innovation teams, and C-suite leaders in Silicon Valley, New York, Austin, Toronto, Montréal, and beyond to transform bold ideas into market-validated Minimum Viable Products (MVPs). In the past six years alone, our North-American squads have shipped more than 150 MVPs that catalyzed over $500 million in follow-on funding and produced several seven-figure exits.

We attack risk early. A one-week discovery sprint aligns executive stakeholders on revenue goals, target personas, regulatory constraints, and measurable KPIs. Next, a five-day design sprint converts high-risk hypotheses into clickable prototypes tested by real customers—ensuring we only code what the market wants. Engineering then proceeds in two-week Scrum cadences, with demo-ready increments, transparent burn-downs, and continuous stakeholder feedback.

Recent highlights include a Boston digital-health platform that achieved HIPAA compliance, secured its first enterprise contract, and raised a $12 million Series A within nine months; a Silicon Valley fintech that processed $40 million in transactions during its beta; and a Toronto ed-tech firm whose Cabot-built MVP won “Best New Product” at the Collision Conference. Whether you need to impress U.S. investors, navigate Canadian privacy laws, or expand to Latin-American markets, Cabot brings deep regional insight and global engineering discipline to make it happen—fast.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does an MVP typically take?

For most B2B and B2C software products we reach a production-ready MVP in 12–16 weeks: one week of strategic discovery, one week of validation, a design sprint in week three, and five to six two-week development sprints. Highly regulated products—such as HIPAA-covered digital health or PCI-level fintech—often add an extra hardening sprint for compliance artifacts and penetration testing. You receive a detailed Gantt chart and sprint calendar before kickoff so executives can align go-to-market plans.

Which tech stacks do you support?

Cabot works with a broad, future-proof toolset: React, Next.js, Angular, Vue, and Svelte on the front end; Node.js, .NET Core, Python/Django, Go, and Java/Spring Boot on the back end; Flutter, React Native, Swift, and Kotlin for mobile; with AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud for infrastructure. Stack selections are based on scalability, talent availability, and investor familiarity—and every choice is fully documented so your engineers can assume ownership seamlessly.

How is pricing structured?

We split discovery/design from development for budget clarity. Discovery & Design is a fixed-fee engagement that delivers research, prototypes, and a prioritized backlog. Development then runs on a time-and-materials model billed every two weeks, supported by burn-down charts, earned-value metrics, and rolling forecasts. This hybrid approach locks core scope while preserving the agility to pivot as market insights emerge.

Can you help with North-American fundraising?

Absolutely. Our product leads have supported YC, Techstars, and 500 Startups cohorts and know what investors probe. We create the technical appendix for your pitch deck, build traction dashboards, and run rehearsal due-diligence sessions so founders can address architecture, security, and scalability questions with confidence. We also introduce qualified clients to a vetted network of U.S. and Canadian angels, seed funds, and corporate venture arms.

What compliance standards do you meet?

Our lifecycle aligns with ISO 27001, and we frequently implement HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI-DSS, GDPR, and Canada’s PIPEDA controls. Security architects review every sprint. We practice threat modeling, SAST/DAST scanning, encrypted data flows, and documented incident-response plans. When required, we commission independent audits and generate the artifacts your legal team or enterprise customers demand.

Do you provide post-launch support?

Yes. After go-live we offer 24/7 DevOps monitoring, SLA-backed incident response, and feature-enhancement sprints. Many clients keep Cabot on retainer for data-driven experimentation, cloud-cost optimization, and mentoring while they staff an internal team. When you’re ready, we facilitate structured knowledge transfer so your engineers can assume full ownership without disrupting velocity or quality.
