Daily Productive Sharing 935 - A New Definition of MVP

One helpful tip per day:)

Tuomas Artman has pointed out that the definition of a modern MVP (Minimum Viable Product) has significantly changed from the past:

1. Since the market already has various products, most MVPs are improvements on existing products. Given this, these products already on the market have validated their commercial viability, so a new MVP does not need to revalidate this aspect;
2. Also, because these products exist in the market, they set the existing bars. Merely creating a minimum viable product is not enough; it must offer more value to users than what is currently available;
3. Therefore, the definition of a contemporary MVP should be to identify the pain points of existing products in the market and then create an improved version based on this;
4. According to this definition, the first step in building a modern MVP is to distill the product down to the point where it can provide the most value to users;
5. Linear's approach is to first create a version that can serve its own team, then recommend it to founders of startups, obtain feedback, and further iterate.

Tuomas Artman 指出现代 MVP （最小可行性产品） 的定义已经和之前的大不相同：

1. 由于市场上已经有各种产品，所以大部分的 MVP 都是在现有产品的基础上做出改进。既然如此，这些已经在市场上的产品已经验证了商业上的可行性，所以新的 MVP 就不需要再验证这一点了；
2. 也由于市场上已经有这些产品，所以他们就是既有门槛，只做出最小可行性产品是不够的，必须比他们提供更多的价值给用户才行；
3. 所以当代 MVP 的定义应该是，找出市场上已有产品的痛点，然后在此基础上做出改进的版本；
4. 根据以上定义，构建现代 MVP 的第一步是把产品浓缩到最能提供价值给用户的那一点上；
5. Linear 的做法就是先制作一个能服务自己团队的版本，然后面向创业公司的创始人推荐，获得反馈，进一步迭代。
