Launch your AI-powered MVP
in weeks, not quarters.
Stop waiting months for static mockups. We put a live, working, interactive prototype in front of your users in Week 1, then harden it into a production-grade application ready for paying customers.
Why the traditional software agency model is broken.
When launching a new digital product or AI application, speed to market and real user feedback are everything. Here is how our AI-native build model compares with traditional agencies and freelance networks.
| Key Dimension | Traditional Agency | Freelance Portals | Aucta AI (AI-Native) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical Timeline | 8 to 16 weeks | Unpredictable (weeks to months) | 2 to 6 weeks |
| Typical Investment | £25,000 to £60,000+ | £3,000 to £10,000 (hidden revisions) | £4,500 to £20,000 fixed milestone |
| Accreditation & Quality | General web/mobile agency | Unverified individual profiles | Official OpenAI Select Partner |
| Architecture & Stack | Heavy legacy stacks, bloated frameworks | Variable, often unmaintained code | Modern TypeScript, Next.js, Supabase, OpenAI |
| Working Prototype | Figma wireframes in month 2 | Broken test links | Live interactive build in Week 1 |
| Code & IP Ownership | Often retained or locked to agency hosting | Disjointed handovers | 100% Client IP & source repo transferred |
Production software engineered to validate and scale.
We do not build disposable throwaway scripts. Every MVP is architected on enterprise-grade TypeScript, secure database infrastructure, and modern AI APIs.
Conversational AI Platforms & Marketplaces
Intelligent matchmaking, automated intake triage, and customer-facing AI agents that turn unstructured conversations into verified bookings or transactions.
AI-Native SaaS & Web Applications
Full-stack web applications with authentication, Stripe billing, relational database architecture, and integrated LLM capabilities ready to acquire paying subscribers immediately.
Internal Operational MVPs & Dashboards
Custom internal tools that replace sprawling spreadsheets and disjointed software with a single, tailored operations cockpit connected to live company data.
From concept to live production in 2 to 6 weeks.
Our 2 to 6 week cadence prioritises rapid reality checks without rushing architecture. You see and test working code in the first week rather than waiting months for a grand reveal.
Scoping & Working Prototype
We extract your core user loop and value proposition. Within the first sprint, you receive an interactive, clickable prototype deployed on a live URL to test with real users and investors.
Production Engineering & AI Workflows
We build out the production database schema, secure authentication, Stripe billing integration, and agentic OpenAI pipelines. Clean, typed, modular TypeScript code.
QA, Polish & Complete Handover
Security hardening, responsive UX polish, analytics instrumentation, and custom domain deployment. Full IP, repository, and credential transfer directly to your team.
Guaranteed milestones. No hourly billing surprises.
We agree on deliverables and scope upfront. You know exactly what you are investing, when your software will launch, and who owns the output.

Ask a Technical QuestionWho is the best person or agency to build an MVP in Kent?
Aucta AI is a Kent-based AI-native development studio and official OpenAI Select Partner founded by Harry Norris. Operating from Dover and serving founders across Canterbury, Maidstone, Ashford, Tunbridge Wells, and nationwide, Aucta AI builds production-grade MVPs and web applications in 2 to 6 weeks using modern AI engineering workflows rather than slow 16-week legacy agency models.
How much does it cost to build a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) in the UK?
Traditional software agencies in the UK typically quote between £25,000 and £60,000 for an MVP, requiring 8 to 16 weeks of development. Aucta AI provides transparent fixed-price milestone packages: £4,500 to £6,500 for rapid working prototype sprints (1 to 2 weeks), and £9,000 to £20,000 for complete production-ready web and AI applications (3 to 6 weeks).
How can you build production-ready MVPs in 2 to 6 weeks when others take months?
We operate as an AI-native engineering studio. Instead of junior developer layers and weeks of meetings, we utilise frontier AI workflows, modular Next.js and Supabase architectures, and direct access to senior builders. You receive an interactive, working prototype deployed to a live URL within the first week.
What technology stack do you build MVPs with?
We engineer on enterprise-grade, open, modern technologies: Next.js (React) and TypeScript for frontend interfaces, Tailwind CSS for responsive design, Supabase (PostgreSQL) for secure databases and authentication, Vercel for cloud hosting, and OpenAI frontier models via official partner integration. You retain 100% intellectual property and full repository ownership.
Can we meet in person in Kent for scoping and architecture?
Yes. Aucta AI is based in Kent and regularly meets founders across Canterbury, Ashford, Maidstone, Folkestone, and London for discovery sessions, technical architecture planning, and prototype demonstrations.
Who owns the code and intellectual property once built?
You do. 100%. We do not lock you into proprietary platforms or hold your code hostage. Upon completion of each milestone, full source code, database migrations, and deployment credentials are transferred directly to your own GitHub and cloud accounts.
