Maybe we read different articles, but "Build an initial product" is what he said to do _after_ the hypothesis testing.

- laserlight 5y agoI quoted directly from the article. MVP is built after the hypothesis testing, but it’s still a test, a test of the independent hypotheses combined into a material product.
- conductr 5y agoI think the point is that the P is not necessary if the T's fail. So, you're creating a stop loss for your time/money/blood/sweat/tears
- mehphp 5y ago> I quoted directly from the article. You did, but your quote comes directly after he said: "Once you’ve finally tested enough hypotheses to have more confidence about your product viability, then go to the next steps:" The MVP is the next step and it distinctly different from what he calls an MTP. An MTP is not a useable product, it doesn't have a login, stack or maybe any code at all.
- pedalpete 5y agoI think this is often where people are confused by MVP. Your minimum viable product isn't (necessarily) your initial product. It's the product you build to test a hypothesis. This is why the article read fairly false to me, not that there wasn't the odd nugget of value, but coming up with a new MVT, is just adding to the confusion.
