We have the expertise for your every need
How Vention delivers peace of mind
Engineering peace of mind comes from speed, security, and operational efficiency achieved through established processes and consistent delivery standards.
Speed
Vention commits to a project kickoff within 14 days and shares team profiles within 48 hours, so you can feel our pace before development even begins.
Once in motion, our speed stays strong. It's the result of refined best practices, years of experience, and well-structured processes that reduce friction and support consistent delivery. For example, we build an MVP quickly to deliver initial value and then expand it through disciplined iteration.
The projects below illustrate how Vention's development approach translates into real delivery speed and measurable impact:
- For Doctors Without Borders, we increased productivity and collaboration across 65,000 employees globally in less than four weeks.
- For Boomin, we delivered a full-fledged solution in just nine months.
- For Bevi, we revamped the website in two weeks.
Innovation and efficiency
Vention believes the future of software development lies in responsible, ethical AI that is integrated into processes and guided by skilled engineers. After extensive internal testing and team-level adoption across the company, Vention expanded its workflows with AI-powered software development, which results in a 15% productivity uplift over its already-optimized workflows. Clients also gain access to a curated list of vetted AI tools and use cases with proven effectiveness.
Flexibility
Scaling a team with Vention requires just 30 days’ notice. We regularly support clients through rapid growth, expanding from small pilot teams to large-scale engineering programs as requirements evolve.
The examples below show how Vention adapts to our clients’ timelines and priorities:
- DealCloud experienced growth from six to 126 engineers to keep pace with its success.
- Juice Plus+ needed 25 senior specialists to drive architectural improvements and new mission-critical features.
- ClassPass brought on 35+ top developers in just two months.
- RethinkFirst scaled to 52 Vention team members to support its expansion.
The same approach works in reverse. When your priorities change, a month’s notice is all that is required to scale the team down.
Established processes and clear communication
Working with an outsourced development team should simplify your life instead of complicating it.
Vention assigns a dedicated strategic partner and a dedicated delivery manager who maintain transparent, organized, and timely communication. Instead of chasing status updates, you receive regular syncs, clear progress reports, and fast responses.
The impact of transparent cooperation is evident in our clients' feedback.
“[We had] weekly sprint calls with our amazing PM Dina to go over all progress to make sure we were happy and in line for our goal date [and] in person meetings with our account manager Ryan who stayed active throughout the whole process and kept all of our objectives and goals at the forefront of the build. Ryan and Dina have blown us away with their commitment and understanding of our vision and company.”
Amir Bakian
Chief Operating Officer at Ascend Agency
Vention follows the Agile methodology because it keeps delivery lean and priorities aligned. Short sprints, continuous feedback, and quick releases mean we can adjust fast without losing momentum or quality.
And when timing matters, Vention teams across multiple time zones keep the work moving.
Security
Vention understands how much is at stake when you share your product vision and data with an outsourced development partner. We support software development even in highly regulated industries where security and privacy are critical.
Before any project details are shared, we sign a non-disclosure agreement. Client code, data, and intellectual property are handled with the same level of care we apply to our own internal systems.
Our information security management system is ISO 27001-certified, which demonstrates alignment with the strictest international requirements. A dedicated cybersecurity team continuously monitors systems and addresses emerging risks.
The dedication to security is reflected in what our clients say about their experience.
During the months we worked together, Vention helped us mitigate an unexpected hacking attack.
After promptly engaging a security expert, they created a document that outlined and tracked all the issues on our site, and fixed them very quickly. We haven't had any security problems since then.”

Software development outsourcing costs
Projects thrive when the focus shifts from short-term savings to dependable delivery and lasting impact. Vention is an outsourcing partner that offers the stability and performance clients rely on, paired with a cost model that provides greater value than expanding an internal team of similar strength.
Quality guides every engagement, which means you avoid paying twice for the same work. Many clients come to us after low-cost vendors fall short, and we have helped them save up to $600K annually compared with both internal hiring and cut-rate alternatives.
Vention’s global presence further strengthens cost efficiency without compromising quality. With development hubs across major tech regions, we assemble teams by location, role, and seniority to align with your goals and your budget.
You can get an initial sense of project costs through our development calculator, but we recommend reaching out for a personalized quote. Our business development manager will respond within a few hours, so you can see for yourself how we align competitive costs with meaningful results.

FAQs
What size and type of clients do you usually work with?
Vention partners with clients of every size and stage. Some are startups with a bold vision and no in-house team, while others are mid-sized companies looking to scale fast through technology. We also serve global enterprises that come to us to modernize complex systems or build new ones from scratch.
Beyond coding, how does your team contribute to product strategy and technical decision-making?
The answer depends on the engagement model you choose. With end-to-end delivery, Vention takes direct responsibility for the outcome. Our involvement starts early, during requirements analysis and architecture design.
With team extension and outsourced team models, Vention engineers are never just task executors, as we challenge ideas when they introduce risk and work with your team to improve reliability, security, and performance.
How do you manage communication and collaboration across different time zones?
With the offices located globally, Vention offers you the flexibility to choose between offshore, nearshore, and onshore engagements. Whatever engagement you go for, our teams can align their working hours with yours or operate in a follow-the-sun model. Regular meetings and syncs, along with shared project management tools, ensure full visibility at every stage.
How quickly can you scale the team up or down if our needs change?
Vention can scale teams up or down with a 30-day notice. This is the timeframe we need for knowledge transfer and onboarding to keep the delivery more predictable and stable.
What if an engineer isn’t the right fit?
We make every effort to ensure each engineer aligns with your team’s culture, workflows, and technology stack. But if the fit isn’t right, our delivery manager will arrange a quick replacement. It will be quick, often within a few days.
How do you handle intellectual property (IP) rights and data security?
Vention operates under strict access controls, NDAs, and established security practices. We ensure the confidentiality of client code, data, and project information. Software or work that we deliver during our engagements remains your intellectual property.
What if our corporate reporting or project management tools are different from the ones your team usually uses?
Overall, we prioritize Agile delivery in sprints and maintain clear progress tracking in Jira, Trello, or similar tools. If your organization uses specific reporting or project management tools, we’ll adapt to your environment.
How do you price your outsourced software development services: hourly, fixed price, or hybrid models?
Vention applies different pricing models depending on the type of outsourcing engagement:
- Hourly or daily rates for team extension.
- Time-and-materials for managed teams, where costs depend on the amount of work completed.
- Fixed price for end-to-end delivery.
