Your Prioritized MVP Roadmap

Not all features are equal. This checklist separates what you must launch with from what can wait — so you ship faster without cutting corners that matter.

Food diary with macro tracking, calorie goals, and meal plan templates

Monthly/annual membership access. Stripe Cashier with free trial and pause support.

Why this MVP scope works

This checklist follows the 80/20 rule: the "Must Have" features deliver 80% of the user value with 20% of the total effort. Every item in the must-have column was chosen because it:

🎯

Solves the core problem Fitness entrepreneurs, gym owners, and personal trainers building digital fitness products face every day

🔄

Creates a complete user loop from onboarding to core action to outcome

💰

Enables you to charge for the product or validate willingness to pay

📊

Gives you meaningful metrics to improve with in v2

🚀

Can be shipped in 1–2 weeks with LaraCopilot

The MVP Philosophy

"The goal is not to build a perfect product. The goal is to build the minimum product that proves your assumption and earns your first users."

For a Fitness App, that means shipping authentication, the core data model, one complete user workflow, and a way to collect feedback. Everything else is version 2. LaraCopilot makes this fast.
