An investable MVP for a property platform

Property Platform MVP on AWS Amplify

About

A PropTech business working with Cloud Combinator on AWS. The client is anonymised at their request.

Challenge

The engagement focused on three areas.

Concept to working product

The wireframe design needed to become a real, demonstrable application, choosing the right slice of functionality to prove the idea rather than building everything at once.

Built to evolve

The MVP had to be architected so the client's technical lead could scale and extend it easily, rather than a throwaway prototype.

Enabling the team

The client's technical lead needed to absorb the knowledge shared during the build so they could continue development independently after handover.

Solution

The work followed Cloud Combinator's Cloud Accelerator, a structured programme that moves from discovery through to a delivered, well-architected build.

  • 30,000 - Users targeted in year one, the platform's growth model (projected)
  • Amplify - Front and back end delivered on AWS Amplify
Changes

The engagement delivered a working MVP on AWS Amplify that the client could take to investors and continue developing in-house, meeting the agreed success criteria. The build converted a focused portion of the wireframe into a product designed to scale.

  • A product to show — A working MVP demonstrating the core tenant and landlord experience for investor conversations.
  • Built to scale — Architected so the remaining functionality is evolvable and easily extended by the client's team.
  • Best practice baseline — A brief best-practices implementation around security, billing and recovery on the AWS account.
  • Team enabled — Knowledge transfer and an immersion day so the technical lead could carry the build forward.
  • Handover — The MVP and account were signed off against the Cloud Accelerator scope.

With an investable MVP and an enabled team, the client is positioned to raise further investment and scale the platform towards its year-one growth target on AWS.
