Minimum Viable Traction (MVT)

Also known as: MVT

MVT is the Traction Gap Framework milestone reached when a company has sustained MVR plus multiple quarters of growth — the threshold for go-to-scale investment.

Minimum Viable Traction is the end of the Traction Gap. Per Traction Gap Partners' B2B SaaS reference sheet, MVT companies typically operate around $6M ARR with sales and marketing spend at roughly 35% of the burn budget and a CAC ratio near 1.2.

At MVT, AI visibility compounds: a well-instrumented AgenticSEO program turns category leadership into citation leadership, which feeds the top of the funnel as buyers increasingly start their research inside AI assistants.
