The MVP is dead. Long live the RAT. | HackerNoonThere is a flaw at the heart of the term Minimum Viable Product: it’s not a product. It’s a way of testing whether you’ve found a problem worth solving. A way to reduce risk and quickly test your biggest assumption. Instead of building an MVP identify your Riskiest Assumption and Test it. Replacing your MVP with a RAT will save you a lot of pain. 2016-09-27T00:00:00-0700 hackernoon.com Rik Higham 1,000 words Rated 2025-08-24T19:30:39-0700 - sethherr
