Product Validation Sprint: verify your product idea, maximize chances of success
Build the right thing before building it right.
Validation is Essential For Your Product’s Success
Top Quality Product Validation Sprint
During a PVS, experts meticulously check your product and provide feedback to help you verify the Product/Solution fit.
- Desirability. Desirability helps you verify if your product is the right thing to create, aka: will people want it?
- Feasibility. Here, experts ask themselves: “Can we build this?” from a technical point of view.
- Business viability. Even if your product is desired and technically doable, you still have to check if it’s a good business idea.
- Product/Market fit. Only after all three elements were checked: a product is feasible, desirable and viable, it is time to check the product/market fit by building an MVP.
Product Validation Services from Netguru
Oftentimes, startup owners think that building an MVP is the first way to evaluate a product's success chances. In fact, MVP is for Market/Product Fit verification, while there is a lot of work to be done on an earlier stage. With a Product Validation Sprint, you can first check the Problem/Solution Fit. This usually involves no or very little development and has a high potential reward: you can minimize the risk of building a product nobody wants, or avoid a lot of redesigning and redeveloping down the road.

- As OLX Group experienced a significant increase in demand for design talent, we could count with Netguru to support us as a real extension of our in-house team.

When to conduct a Product Validation Sprint
It’s best to start validating an idea as early as possible. Validation helps to put the right foundation in place, before you spend too much time designing and developing the application. However, product validation should also be continuous. It’s never too late to verify your foundations and strengthen them. A PVS lets you test your idea against the four main risks from Marty Cagan’s book “inspired”.
- Value risk. We validate your hypothesis about an existing problem and the target customer that is to buy the solution. One of the best ways to do that are in-depth interviews.
- Usability risk. Can users figure out how to use your product? Here, we verify if the way you plan to bring the expected value is something clear and easy for the customers.
- Feasibility risk. Only after you have a clear vision and understanding of the desired solution, it’s time to check if it is doable by the development team. Aka, verification should answer the question: “Can we build this?”
- Business viability risk. At last, we should ask ourselves: “Should we build this?”. Even if all previous risks are mitigated, there is still the threat of building a product that has no good business model, or isn’t sustainable enough.
