POC

At What Stage Should You Prototype?

If you’re asking whether it’s time for a POC, it probably is. Still not sure? Here are a few moments where a POC makes perfect sense

You have an idea but no clue how to build it

Don’t Google your way through it, prototype a slice of it instead

You’re planning to pitch investors soon.

A clickable demo speaks louder than 20 slides.

You’ve got 3 ways to build the same thing.

Test each direction with tiny builds. Let data, not guesses, decide.

You want to prove your app isn’t “just another one.”

Your POC can show what makes it different, special, or even brilliant.

You’re exploring risky or new tech.

AI, blockchain, voice commands are cool, but are they practical for your use case? A POC will tell you.

You don’t want to waste 6 months chasing the wrong thing.

A few weeks of prototyping can save you half a year of heartbreak.

How We Actually Design a POC

At InceptMVP, we usually design your POC in either Figma or Lovable.

Prototype in Figma

Figma → Bubble or Flutterflow is your go-to path if:

→You're moving fast and lean

→You want to test, launch, and maybe pivot later

Think of Figma as sketching your app’s soul clickable screens, user flows, and the vibe without writing code. Once it feels right, we jump into Bubble or Flutterflow to build your MVP fast, perfect for testing, launching, and pivoting as you go.

Prototype in Lovable

Lovable → React is your best bet if:

→ Need serious engineering power

→ Focused on performance and customization

→ Ready to scale beyond testing

For bigger, more complex ideas built to scale, we use Lovable. It sets the stage for a React app fast, powerful, and ready for heavy data just like the tech behind Facebook and Airbnb.

How We Do POCs at Incept MVP

We’re not about bloated decks or endless planning. We’re about clarity, speed, and honest answers. Our POC process is lean, human, and works like this

Before writing a single line of code, we sit down with you to deeply understand your idea, the vision, the challenges, and the outcomes you want to achieve. It’s not just about features; it’s about the purpose behind them.

Every idea has a “big question.” Our job is to identify that question and turn it into something we can test quickly. This becomes the central focus of your POC.

Using tools like Figma, Bubble, or FlutterFlow, we create a stripped-down version of your concept that highlights the essential functionality fast, simple, and cost-effective.

Do I really need a POC? Can’t I just build the whole thing?

Think of a POC (Proof of Concept) as a test drive. It helps you find out if your idea actually works before you pour months and money into building it. It’s the smartest shortcut you can take.

How’s a POC different from an MVP? Aren’t they the same thing?

Not quite. A POC is about proving “this is possible.” An MVP is about proving “people will use this.” So: POC first, MVP second.

How long does a POC take?

Most POCs are done in days, sometimes weeks if the idea is complex. The goal isn't to polish its speed.

Will my POC actually look like a real app?

It won’t have all the bells and whistles of your final product, but it’ll be enough to show how it works. Sometimes we even make it clickable so you can “walk through” it like a real app.

What tools do you use to build a POC?

We use a mix of design and no-code tools: Figma for wireframes, Bubble or FlutterFlow for no-code builds, and sometimes React if it needs more muscle. We pick the tool that fits your idea best.

Can I use my POC to impress investors?

100%. In fact, that’s one of the best uses of a POC. Instead of waving around a pitch deck, you can actually show something that works. Investors love that.

What happens after my POC is done?

Two options:
‍
You love it → we upgrade it into an MVP or full product.
You don’t → we tweak or pivot without wasting big money.
Either way, you win.

How much will a POC cost me?

Way less than building the whole app. We keep POCs lean and focused on just proving the core idea. Think of it as the safest, cheapest way to test your vision.
