iOS-first MVPs / product repair / AI workflow systems

EV1 Labs

I build iOS-first MVPs, repair stuck products and turn repeated work into AI-assisted systems. The first version should be useful, releasable and easy for another team to understand.

quick fit read Choose EV1 when a demo is not enough.

The first answer should say what to do next, when a cheaper test is smarter and what must be checked before serious spend. Fast AI or no-code sprints can be right when the result can be thrown away. EV1 fits when release, data and long-term control need to hold up.

Send a short brief 10-sec fit check Validate EV1
scope unclear Product audit

Use when scope or priorities are still unclear.

first check: written scope 1,500-3,000 EUR new product MVP build

Use when the core workflow and first user are real.

first check: releasable core 12,000-25,000 EUR existing app Product repair

Use when an app exists but launch is blocked. Fix the useful core before funding a rebuild.

first check: blocker list 4,000-10,000 EUR repeated work AI workflow

Use when repeated work needs structure, data and human review.

first check: review rule scoped by workflow

decision clarity

Know why EV1 should be considered before the first call.

A careful buyer should be able to consider EV1, reject EV1 or pick a cheaper first step before spending calendar time. The best fit is a product where release, admin, data and long-term control matter more than a fast-looking demo.

product brief Send five facts and one useful question.

The first reply should be useful without a sales call: fit or no-fit, recommended service, range, hardest remaining question and the smallest paid step that makes sense.

  1. What are you building?

  3. What must work in version one?
  4. Do you need iOS, web, or both?
  5. Target timeline and budget range?
  6. What would make the next spend safer?
