A new startup called Skylark has driven today – and TNW gives an additional set of wing.
The company starts with a central mission: authorization of the non-technical founders, to quickly create high-quality minimal, viable products (MVPS).
In order to bring their plans to life, Skylark has created an AI-reinforced frame that promises fast, efficient iteration cycles. Freelance developers apply the framework for the construction of the MVP. While coding, the Skylark team takes care of the customer acquisition.
Each solution is adapted for the goals of the founder. By drawing a pool of freelancers, Skylark can then find developers that meet the specific requirements of each project.

The MVPs are designed in the real world. Throughout the build, Skylark founders offers strategic knowledge and expert support.
“We will help you to start faster, cheaper and better than traditional agencies,” Steven Kleinveld, CEO and co -founder of the startup told TNW. “And we do that mainly because of our framework.”
Kleinveld has strong connections to TNW. He recently completed an internship as a startup scout for TNW programs, which he writes the kick start of his plans for Skylark. He also selected TNW City for Skylark's headquarters.
He developed a roadmap from the Amsterdam office to deliver MVPS quickly.
The process begins with an evaluation of the customer's needs and goals. After Skylark has presented the results and schedules, he analyzes the market and the competition to refine the project plan. Developers then create a flexible, code -based prototype.
Finally, the prototype is refined in a polished MVP. Customers also receive the full code base – and advice for use. In addition, Skylark offers further instructions on functions, design, SEO and strategy.
The plans aim to solve common problems for non -technical founders.

Technical problems for founders
Many of the most successful startups in the world had non-technical founders, from Ben Silbermann's Pinterest and Airbnbs Brian Chesky to Tinder Whitney Wolfe Herd and Snaps Evan Spiegel. But there could have been much more. Countless great ideas never become big business, because the heads behind it are hardly any coding skills.
Kleinveld has first -hand experience with the topics. During his studies at the University of Amsterdam, he tried to encode his own projects.
“I am not excessively technical and I needed months to not even build MVPs, but only apps. And it frustrated me because I had so many ideas, ”he said.
He discovered that many other entrepreneurs had similar problems. A common problem was that lengthy development cycles caused them to miss the ideal time for the market entry. Another lacked the technical know -how for evaluating and collaboration with developers.
Skylark aims to solve these problems.
The key to the plans is a number of AI improvements in the development process. Among them are lovable – one of Europe The fastest growing startups – The Code Builder Cursor and the versatile Chatgpt Pro.
By mixing AI with a product delivery frame and a pool of developers, Skylark hopes to give a new herd of founders to flight. As Kleinveld puts it: “When the idea is on the floor, we start it in the sky.”
