Software development for startups

Every startup needs software development services that balance boldness with reliability. Our team builds everything from MVPs to ambitious features that attract VCs. No matter the industry, we deliver best-in-class software products.

A launchpad for startups

Any number of problems can keep a startup from taking off — software development shouldn’t be one of them. Vention offers expert software development for startups and has a track record of partnering with them to reach unicorn status.

The right team, right now

Our developers stay on top of pioneering tools as well as the latest advances in common technologies. That means we start every software project with the fundamental technical knowledge needed to make the first steps fast and efficient.

Entrepreneurial energy

Startups have their own energy; we do, too. As startup development partners, we find innovation addictive, just like you.

Lofty ambitions and speedy delivery

From MVP to IPO, we join forces with startups so their aspirations are supported by smart, speedy software development.

A spirit of commitment

We approach our work with dedication and loyalty. Count on us for honesty and transparency when we advise you on challenges ranging from product strategy to team structure.

Our services

MVP development

When it comes to software development for startups, initial success often hinges on a well-executed minimum viable product. We build MVPs and prototypes in record time. Then we rapidly test each iteration.

Product development strategy & roadmapping

Quality software products rely on sound development processes in addition to technical expertise. We tailor our processes to accommodate the specifications of each project, which often means we deliver solutions ahead of schedule.

UX/UI design & redesign

Many software solutions are only as good as their UX: If users stumble while interacting with a product, then it’s not functioning optimally. That’s why we approach every project with a user-first mindset.

SaaS, desktop, & mobile product development

With our software development services, you can have a product ready for market validation in three months.


QA & testing

Our QA team relies on a strategy to implement testing. From there, they report test results at every stage in order to improve the product’s performance.


Ongoing support

With Vention, software development doesn’t stop as soon as the product launches. We regard monitoring, analysis, patching, and planning as our responsibility as your business evolves.

Our promise

Regardless of platform, industry, size, or stack, rest assured that any product we deliver will be:

Secure

We take steps to ensure that solutions are stable and free of vulnerabilities and risks and that all data is protected under lock and key.

Future-proof

Our code leaves room for augmentation via new technologies so redesigning from the ground up is never necessary.

Scalable

Sometimes companies grow exponentially. Our developers build software that can scale to meet future demand.

Frequently asked questions

What are the minimum requirements to kick off a partnership?

While there are no precise or minimum requirements our clients share across the board, we tend to partner with:

  • software-savvy organizations seeking to build or expand their product plans, existing MVPs, or applications
  • companies with in-house technical and product leadership that knows how to partner with powerful development companies like ours
  • startups with secured funding seeking support services to fill gaps in their development lifecycle

Above all, we work with clients who are serious about partnering to build great software. If this resonates with you, we eagerly await the opportunity to learn more.

Do you sign NDAs?

Yes. Our partnerships always prioritize protecting both your original ideas and your data. We’ll sign an NDA as soon as you’d like us to.

How long does it take to get started?

From first contact to kickoff can take as little as one and a half weeks. Once you reach out, we’ll get in touch within 24-48 hours with an initial list of pre-vetted engineering talent that fits your needs. After finding the best match, we’ll schedule a start date for both your team and ours.

Can I scale my Vention development team or pull back if necessary?

Yes. It’s common for our dedicated development teams to expand or contract based on clients’ resources and objectives. We understand how important it is for startups and enterprises alike to remain nimble, and our process is designed to be agile and responsive to changing needs.

My team has limited technical expertise in-house. Can we still partner?

Yes, we have the talent to design and build a product from beginning to end. Depending on your budget and objectives, we also suggest looking into our CTO as a Service offering, which is designed to provide technology leadership and business advising at a speed that keeps pace with your trajectory.

How much do your software development services for startups cost?

Costs can vary greatly depending on your development needs and scope. For an accurate estimate, please tell us a little more about your project and we’ll get right back to you.

Do you build software in compliance with the GDPR, HIPAA, and other specific standards and regulations?

Absolutely. We take compliance seriously and always build our software to adhere to relevant regulations in specific regions and industries, including financial technology and healthcare.

What if I’ve already worked with another software vendor?

We’re accustomed to working with clients that need a software partner who can pick up projects mid-stream, find real options for paying off technical debt, or work side-by-side with other teams. Our processes ensure that changing vendors is quick, efficient, and seamless.
