Transform Your Idea Into a Working MVP

Expert MVP development for non-technical founders. Ship your product in weeks, not months. 100% of profits fund tech apprenticeships for underrepresented communities.

Mike Roberts

Hi, I'm Mike Roberts

I've been building software products for over 15 years, from scrappy startups to Fortune 500 companies. I've seen too many founders waste months and thousands of dollars on the wrong approach.

Now I help non-technical founders validate their ideas fast with production-ready MVPs. My mission is simple: help you ship something real, quickly, without the BS.

And here's the best part: every dollar I earn goes directly to Creating Coding Careers, funding free tech apprenticeships for people who deserve a shot at this industry.

What You Get

More than just code. A complete package to launch your idea with confidence.

Production-Ready Code

TypeScript, React, modern architecture. Built to scale, not just to demo.

Weekly Progress Updates

Never wonder what's happening. Clear communication and demos every week.

Full Documentation

Setup guides, API docs, and handoff materials so any developer can continue.

Deployment Included

Live on the web, not stuck on a laptop. Full deployment and hosting setup.

Strategy Consultation

Product thinking, not just coding. I'll help you prioritize what matters most.

Post-Launch Support

Bug fixes and guidance after launch. You're not alone once the code ships.
