Are MVPs dead? (alien.top)

I can't help myself to think that nowadays, products UX/UI level is so high, that even for B2B products, people have expectations.

I would certainly not use a product that looks and feels crappy even if it solves my needs.

I could possibly don't see how it solves my needs if it does it in a crappy way too.

What are your thoughts?

yea to add to these, i've had a multiple profitable online businesses.

MVPs are very much alive and kickin.

more popular than ever.

but you probably can't tell the difference between MVP and launched product.

Everything has gotten so accessible people will build full fledged brands and launch them, just no infrastructure or minimal infrastructure on the backend.

for something as simple as a teeth whiteneing product like trysnow.com or a business service like explodingideas.co there's tons of examples of companies that started with mvp.

for saas too.

i mean look at theranos, elizabeth didn't even have an MVP and did a deal with walgreens.

that gives you everything you need to know tbh.
