HealthTech MVP Community
Expert advice, forum, live Q&As, videos, and more
As a HealthTech founder, you have a deep knowledge of healthcare, wellness, and most importantly, the people whose lives will change for the better with your product. You’ve got the vision. You know how to help people.
Now you just need to validate that vision with an MVP (a minimum viable product).
But thinking about the tech gives you a headache.
When you’re bootstrapping a startup without in-house technical expertise, all the jargon, the never-ending options, the years-long roadmaps, the unknown unknowns and the pressure to get it right (or risk losing your big vision) can quickly become overwhelming.
By definition, though, your MVP doesn’t need the bells and whistles.
It just needs to answer one question: Do people want this?
Approaching your MVP with that one question in mind shifts the landscape. You can validate your product before you spend on expensive tech. And you can apply for grant funding and seek investment with confidence. You just need to understand how.
Introducing the HealthTech MVP Community
The community and training ground for non-techie founders in the HealthTech space.
Founder support tends to come from people who know how to build businesses but have no idea about the tech, or from techies with a deep knowledge of a specific platform, and no idea how to find the right solution for you.
The HealthTech MVP Community gives you the tools to build your MVP, build relationships with your peers, and build confidence in your product—without huge budgets or technical jargon.
It's a micro-CTO in your pocket, bridging the gap between muddling through the tech by yourself and spending the whole budget on a Fractional CTO.
"We had no in-house CTO or technical expertise but with Gabrielle’s collaborative style (and over-delivery) we didn’t have to panic about the deadline!"
"When we were investigating the potential of building a web-based app, Gabrielle’s honest feedback and pragmatic approach (with no tech talk) helped us test the idea before investing."
"Massive help in time saving and focus. Gabrielle's experience has helped us answer a lot of questions that we had by just going fast, cheap and finding product market fit before anything else."
"Gabrielle took on the role of an adviser and critical friend. Our conversations were focused on the stage of development and ensured that I was able to succeed in the development of my MVP."

Fortnightly Q&A sessions with a Fractional CTO, to help you build the simplest possible MVP, make tech decisions with confidence, and hold you accountable to follow them through.

The HealthTech MVP Community is for you if…
-
You have a clear vision for a HealthTech product that will help real people, but you need help connecting the dots between your vision and a working product.
-
You are building or scaling a health or fitness MVP, but have no idea where to turn for tech support you can actually understand.
-
You are self-funded, grant-funded, or looking for investment, so you just can’t afford to spend on expensive tech before you need it.
-
You’re not an engineer, and you don’t have technical expertise in-house (and sometimes that makes you doubt yourself).
Meet your new micro-CTO
I'm the technical advisor for non-technical founders, on a mission to get good products to the people they can really help, with the simplest possible tech-stack.
As a Fractional CTO with over 20 years of experience building apps for enterprises and established startups, I bring a breadth of tech knowledge into my work with early-stage start-ups to advise founders on the best tech for their needs.
As a coach, mentor, and trusted friend, though, I take a more person-led approach to tech. I discuss technology in non-technical terms, simplifying complex jargon to bridge the gap between tech and business.
