PoC vs Prototype vs MVP: Key differences

Stage
Definition
Purpose
Target audience
Timing
Cost
Risk
Proof of Concept (PoC)
A basic version built to test technical feasibility
To validate a technical assumption or a specific concept
Technical professionals and stakeholders
After planning/at the last stages of the discovery/before product development
Lower cost since it’s just testing feasibility, often with minimal investment
Low risk since it’s not exposed to users; the goal is to validate ideas early on
Prototype
A visual representation of your product, often clickable, without real code
Explore user flows and core design ideas
Internal teams, stakeholders, and early investors

During the discovery phase

Moderately costly depending on design complexity and iteration needs
Medium risk, as the focus is on design validation and early-stage refinement
Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
A functional version of the product used by early adopters in a real environment
Collect user feedback, attract early users, and assess product-market fit
Early adopters, initial customers, and business stakeholders
During development, prior to full-scale product launch
Higher cost because it involves core functionality and infrastructure for real users
Medium to high, as the product is exposed to real users and the market

FAQ

A Proof of Concept (PoC) is used to test technical feasibility. A prototype focuses on UI/UX and demonstrates how the product might look or feel. An MVP (Minimum Viable Product) is a working solution with essential features, built for early user testing and market entry.

Development time usually ranges from 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the complexity of the solution, required integrations, and level of technical uncertainty.

Technology choices vary based on the project but often include cloud platforms, mobile and web frameworks, IoT stacks, and AI/ML toolkits. The goal is to use the most appropriate tools for quick, focused validation.

Not necessarily. A clear problem statement and business objective are enough to begin. Technical teams can help define scope and success criteria during the planning phase.

Typical PoC deliverables include a working prototype, technical validation results, and documentation outlining what was tested, the outcome, and next-step recommendations.

Yes. A successful PoC often serves as the foundation for MVP or full development, helping to reduce risk and accelerate delivery.

That’s still a valuable outcome. A PoC helps avoid costly mistakes by revealing technical or business limitations early, allowing teams to pivot or rethink the solution before investing further.
