In this episode of Founders + AI, Michelle Akhidenor and Boon Chew get real about what it actually takes to build a solid MVP as an AI founder. Is it a functional product? A pitch-ready prototype? A tool for learning fast? They unpack the true purpose of a Minimum Viable Product — or as some call it, a Minimum Investable Product — and how to build one that helps you test ideas, attract investment, and avoid the trap of overbuilding too soon.
From using AI tools to move faster without losing focus, to navigating the messiness of feedback loops, they break down what to prioritize, what to ignore, and how to balance speed with quality. Michelle shares why investors are betting on your potential, not just your product, and Boon offers clear strategies for interpreting feedback and spotting blind spots early.
Whether you're pre-seed, pre-launch, or mid-pivot — this one’s your crash course in MVP strategy that actually works.
