Launch your MVP in 90 days, not a year.

The most expensive startup mistake isn't building a bad product — it's building a polished product for a problem that nobody actually has. The longer the runway burns before launch, the closer the company creeps to a financial cliff that no feature list can rescue it from.

Blameo's 90-day MVP cycle is built around four practical guardrails:

1. Stress-test assumptions with real users. Roughly 60% of features in finished software products are barely used. A live MVP lets actual customers — not internal opinions — vote on which 40% matter.
2. Control opportunity cost. Twelve months of stealth development is twelve months of competitors moving on the same market. Three months out the door secures first-mover signal and starts generating revenue you can reinvest.
3. Sidestep the sunk-cost trap. After a year of investment in the wrong direction, pivoting is financially and emotionally agonizing. With a 90-day cycle, pivots are routine course corrections, not crises.
4. Build on evidence. Your roadmap is driven by what customers do, not what stakeholders speculate. Spend lands on features people are willing to pay for.

Minimize risk. Maximize core value. Ship in 90 days.
