The free MVP

From idea to a real app in your hand β€” for free.

Most agencies sell you slides and quotes. We build first, then let you decide with the real thing.

01

Tell us the idea

A single 30-minute call. No brief, no deck required β€” just talk us through what you want to build.

02

We build the MVP

Within a week our team designs and builds a real, tappable version of your core idea β€” not a mockup.

03

Try it on your phone

We install it on your own device. You hold it, tap through it, share it β€” free. Then decide if we build the rest.

Love it? We build the full app β€” together. Not for you? No problem, you're never charged a thing.
How we work

Six steps, from idea to a live app.

A complete, in-house process. Same team from the first sketch to long after launch.

The Lissio team at work in our studio
Fair pricing Β· Real team

Fair prices, because nothing is outsourced.

Design, development, testing β€” every part of your app is built by our own team, under one roof, in our Paris studio. No subcontractors, no middlemen, no markup. That's how we keep pricing honest and timelines we can actually hold.

100% in-house

Designers, developers and product managers all on the same team. Nothing subcontracted, nothing lost in handoffs.

Transparent cost

You control the scope, you see the price. No hidden fees, no surprise invoices β€” the fairest rate for the work, full stop.

Timelines we keep

Fewer hands means fewer delays. We commit to dates up front β€” and because we own the whole chain, we hold them.

A partnership, not a delivery

We don't ship an app and leave. We stay.

Lumen β€” Sleep & recovery

We started with a free MVP preview. Two years on, we've shipped 18 releases together, grown the team's roadmap, and kept iterating on retention and performance β€” as one product team, not a vendor.

Senior people, in-house

Founders who held their app first.

"I'd been quoted €40k by three agencies for a spec I couldn't picture. Lissio just handed me the app. That changed everything."

Camille Reyes
Founder, Norra

"The preview took six days. Six. My co-founder and I were tapping through our own product before we'd signed anything."

Tom Vasseur
CEO, Overpass

"No slides, no endless scoping. A real thing in my hand, then a clear plan to ship it. It's the only way I'd start again."

Julien Marchand
Founder, Cadence

Book a call

Is the MVP preview really free?

Yes. We build a real, interactive version of your core idea and install it on your phone at no cost. If you decide not to continue, you keep it β€” no strings.

How long until I can try it?

Usually within a week of our first call. You'll have something tappable in your hand in days, not months.

What do you build?

Native and cross-platform mobile apps (iOS & Android), from first sketch to store launch β€” and the growth work that follows.

Who do you work with?

Founders, startups and teams β€” whether you're validating a first MVP or growing an existing product over the long term.
