Months 0–3 · Foundation
Recruit technical leadership, finalise the MVP specification, establish technical architecture, complete product design, and lay privacy and safety foundations.

Months 3–8 · Build
Develop profiles, compatibility, discovery, matching, messaging and focused AI-assisted features.
- 03
Months 8–10 · Test
Complete testing, closed beta, safety testing and structured user feedback.
- 04
Months 10–15 · Launch and learn
Launch in a focused market, build local density, measure CAC, engagement, retention and paid conversion, then iterate toward Seed metrics.
The first production release is deliberately focused. It does not attempt to build every future TUGG feature into version one.
