Test the idea before you build the product

Clickable, shareable prototypes and demo apps that test demand and win the pitch before the full build.

We turn an idea into a clickable, shareable prototype in days, not months — something you can put in front of customers, investors or your board. It is a fixed-price sprint, so you learn whether the idea has legs before committing to a full build.

Who it’s for

Founders, product teams and innovation leads who need to prove demand or win buy-in before spending on a full product.

02 / Capabilities

What Viral Prototypes covers.

01

Clickable prototypes

Real screens and flows people can tap through on their own phone, not static slides.

02

Shareable demo apps

A link you can send to customers, investors or colleagues, so the idea travels without you in the room.

03

Demand testing

Sign-up, waitlist or pre-order flows built in, so you measure interest rather than guess at it.

04

Pitch-ready polish

Designed to look and feel like the finished product, which is what a pitch or board meeting needs.

05

A path to production

When the idea works, the prototype feeds straight into an MVP build, so nothing is wasted.

03 / Process

No quotes theatre. Four steps.

You get an indicative range before discovery and a fixed scope after it. Nothing about the price should be a surprise.

STEP 01

Discovery

A short, fixed-price discovery to define exactly what is being built — so there are no surprises later.

STEP 02

Fixed-scope proposal

A clear proposal broken down by phase, with an indicative range up front. You approve, adjust or stage it.

STEP 03

Build in sprints

We build in short sprints with regular demos, so you see working software early — not a big reveal in month four.

STEP 04

Launch & support

We launch, hand over clean documented code, and support it — with a retained team if you want one.

04 / Why Devute

What you get that you didn’t last time.

UK-based senior team

Transparent pricing

Indicative ranges up front and a fixed-scope proposal after discovery. You always know what you are paying for.

One team, idea to scale

Strategy, design, build and infrastructure under one roof — one accountable team from first sketch to launch and beyond.

You own the code

All source, designs and IP transfer to you, in clean documented repositories. You are never locked in.

07 / FAQ

Questions people ask.

Ask us directly
How is a prototype different from an MVP?

A prototype shows the idea and tests whether people want it; an MVP is a working product people pay for. Many clients start with a prototype, then move to an MVP once the demand is proven.

How much does a prototype cost?

Each prototype is a fixed-price sprint, quoted after a free audit of your idea. You know the price before any work starts.

Can we turn the prototype into the real product?

Yes. The prototype feeds directly into our MVP build, which averages about four weeks from kickoff to live.
