How long should software discovery take?

A focused discovery can take a few days for a contained workflow and a few weeks for a multi-system platform. The output should be a buildable scope, not a long research document.

Can development start before every requirement is final?

Yes, if the first slice is isolated, measurable, and backed by acceptance criteria. Risky integrations, payment flows, AI actions, and data migrations should still be scoped before implementation.

What should a founder prepare before hiring a development agency?

Prepare the business goal, current workaround, affected users, must-have workflow, data sources, integration needs, timeline, budget readiness, risks, and what would make the first release successful.
