At what point is a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) created?

  1. Growth

  2. Launch

  3. Prototype

  4. Monetization

The correct answer is: Prototype

A Minimum Viable Product (MVP) is created at the prototype stage of product development. The concept of an MVP is rooted in the idea of testing a product with the least amount of resources while still offering core functionalities that meet the basic needs of early adopters. This approach allows entrepreneurs and businesses to validate their idea based on real market feedback without building a fully developed product. By focusing on essential features, the MVP serves as a model to gather insights and understand user behavior, which can guide future iterations of the product. Once feedback is received, entrepreneurs can refine the product based on actual user experiences, ensuring that they create something that better aligns with market demands. The options representing growth, launch, and monetization occur after the MVP has been tested and iterated upon. These stages involve scaling the product, preparing for market introduction, or implementing revenue-generating strategies, making them subsequent steps rather than the point of creation for an MVP.
