Your AI can build anything.
It just can't decide what.
MVP Architect interviews you like a sharp technical co-founder, then generates a complete project foundation — scope, architecture, task plan, and agent instructions for your tool — ready to drop into Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable, or Bolt.
15-minute guided interview · delivered as a ready-to-build project folder
See a real example first ↓$ claude > Read CLAUDE.md and the docs folder, then start task 0.1 ✓ Loaded product brief, MVP scope, architecture ✓ 14 features on the cut list — I won't build these ✓ Starting task 0.1: Scaffold Next.js project…
The problem
Every AI-built project goes off the rails the same way.
You open a chat window and type "I want to build…" Three weeks later you have 40,000 lines of code, no clear scope, an architecture nobody decided, and a project you quietly abandon.
That's not bad code — it's decisions nobody made before the first prompt: what's in scope, what's cut, which stack, what order to build in. Experienced CTOs make these calls by reflex. Everyone else finds out three weeks in.
No matter how messy the idea, you get the same six-file foundation.
How it works
Decisions first. Code second.
Get interviewed
Describe your idea. MVP Architect asks what a CTO would — you confirm or correct. ~15 minutes.
Get your foundation
One consistent project folder: brief, scope, architecture, task plan, and the right agent-instructions file for your AI tool.
Start building
Open it in Claude Code or Cursor, say "start task 0.1." Full context and a plan — from the first prompt.
Real output, unedited
This is what you leave with.
A complete foundation for TrainerBook — a booking app for personal trainers. Every file below was generated from a 15-minute interview.
# Product Brief — TrainerBook > Generated by MVP Architect · v1 · 2026-07-02 > This document is the source of truth for what we're building and why. Every other file in this foundation derives from it. ## One-liner TrainerBook lets independent personal trainers take bookings and payments through a single link, replacing the text-message-and-Venmo chaos they use today. ## Problem Independent personal trainers (not gym employees) manage their business through a patchwork of texts, DMs, Google Calendar, and Venmo requests. The result: - Double-bookings and no-shows with no cancellation policy enforcement - Chasing clients for payment after sessions - No single place to see their week or their income - Looking unprofessional compared to trainers at boutique studios Existing tools (Mindbody, Trainerize) are built for studios and gyms — too expensive ($100+/mo), too complex, and centered on features solo trainers don't need. ## Target user **Primary:** Solo personal trainers with 10–40 recurring clients, working out of parks, home gyms, or rented studio space. Tech-comfortable but not technical. Currently paying $0 for tooling — the bar is "better than free chaos," not "better than Mindbody." **Explicitly not targeting (yet):** studios, gyms with staff, yoga/pilates instructors with class-based (one-to-many) scheduling. ## Value proposition One booking link that handles scheduling, payment, and cancellation policy — set up in 10 minutes, at a price a solo trainer will actually pay ($19/mo). ## How they solve this today (competition) | Alternative | Why it fails them | |---|---| | Texts + Venmo | No structure, chasing payments, no-shows are free | | Calendly + manual payment | Scheduling only; payment still separate; no client history | | Mindbody / Trainerize | Studio pricing and complexity; overkill for a solo trainer | | Square Appointments | Closest competitor — generic, not trainer-shaped (no packs, no session notes) | ## Success criteria for the MVP - A trainer can go from signup → shareable booking link in under 10 minutes - A client can book and pay for a session in under 2 minutes without creating an account - 10 trainers using it weekly within 60 days of launch
// THE CUT LIST
Every foundation includes a list of features you're not building — each with a reason and an earliest-return date. Scope creep is the #1 killer of AI-built projects. The cut list is your contract against it.
The obvious question
Can't I just ask Claude to do this?
Sure — if you know the 40 questions to ask, the order to ask them in, and what a good answer looks like for each. That's the product: not the documents, the decisions.
MVP Architect encodes how experienced builders scope, architect, and plan AI-first projects — so a meandering 3-hour chat becomes a 15-minute structured interview, with output that's internally consistent across every file.
If you already do this well by hand, you're not our customer. You probably know someone who isn't.

FAQ
Questions
What exactly do I get?
A project folder: product brief, MVP scope with cut list, architecture + data model, ordered task breakdown, README, and agent instructions matched to your tool (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, or Bolt's agents.md). Download as zip or copy per file.
Which tools does it work with?
Claude Code, Cursor, Bolt — anything that reads project context. The foundation is markdown; it works with tools that don't exist yet, too.
I'm not technical. Is this for me?
Yes — the interview adapts. You'll get a recommended stack with plain-English reasoning instead of jargon-heavy choices.
