I can invest around $50K for an MVP You are almost certainly under-capitalized. I need a team of freelancers Five developers at $3000/week/developer is a timeline of 3.5 weeks. Its not very complicated to pull off tech-wise Building it yourself is the simplest thing that might work. Nobody knows what you want better than you and nobody cares about the thing you want more than you. As a bonus, building it yourself as a non-technical person is still probably more likely to succeed than paying less than needs to be paid for good developers. Building it yourself might also be easier than coordinating a teem of developers with other commitments (all moderately good freelancers have other commitments and their regular clients take precedence over one shot clients). I can start talking to customers Yes you can and should. You don't need an MVP or a team of subordinates to get to work. If you can sell your idea without a product, you can surely sell it with a product. And by "sell" I mean actually getting money from potential customers without an MVP. Getting money is the only validation of a business idea. Good luck.
