Your MVP should embarrass you.
If it doesn't, you're just late.
But let's be clear on what "embarrassing" means.
It doesn't mean broken. It doesn't mean insecure.
It means limited.
I see it constantly. Founders burning $50K in 9 months building "the right way." The goal is to ship the smallest possible thing that delivers value.
Meanwhile:
→ Airbnb started with air mattresses and a basic website → Stripe started by providing 7 lines of code → Dropbox started with a demo video
Don't build a bad product fast. Build a tiny product well. Then talk to users. Real users. Paying users.
They will tell you what to build next. And it will NOT be what you planned in your 6-month roadmap.
Let the market pull the rest out of you.
