Roast my idea - a startup to build startup MVP's

I had the idea for MVP Forge when I encountered many non-technical founders who are struggling to build MVPs for their startup ideas in order to start pitching and raising funds, etc.
One of my clients personally had an idea and needed an MVP for it. We designed and built him a functional website with all the APIs and features he needed to demonstrate how the idea worked.
We completed it in around 3 weeks, and he has since gone on to raise a handsome investment amount. So, I thought of replicating this for a fixed amount, maybe around $5k, with a development timeframe of 2-4 weeks. Would you be interested in such a thing? If so, please join the waitlist below so I can determine if this is worth pursuing or not. Thank you.

Not sure. On one hand, you're asking someone who hasn't made anything yet and does not have investment money to spend a couple grand. On the other hand, you're providing non-technical people a way for their idea to get shopped.

@rasha_clairity yeah great point of view, we will know if a project can be done in that timeframe or not otherwise, we won't accept it in the begging, as for the risk factor if they are even thinking about it 5k won't be that much of their net worth i think
@wannes_amine 2-4 weeks to go from idea to MVP is ambitious. Like, really ambitious. It’s great when it works out, but it’s also setting up a high-stakes game of development roulette. Most entrepreneurs are gonna have shit ideas, so I dont know if people want to risk a 5k investment for a potential on a self-thought idea.
I recommend you put my comments into an AI to explain them if you are confused!
@wannes_amine Forsure, then I think as long as you brand yourselves accordingly and market to that market, then this can be a great niched agency.
