Seattle agencies bill $150–$300/hr and spend weeks in discovery before writing a line of code. Vnta ships your app in weeks.
What Seattle agencies actually cost you

Common questions from Seattle founders
Why hire a remote app development company instead of a Seattle agency?
Seattle agencies charge a premium for the ZIP code, not the work. Remote teams like Vnta deliver the same — or better — quality at rates that make sense for early-stage startups.
How do you handle time zones for Seattle-based founders?
We maintain full overlap with your business hours. Calls, reviews, and quick questions all happen when it's convenient for your Seattle-based team.
What kinds of apps do you build?
Mobile apps (iOS and Android), web applications, SaaS products, and MVPs. We handle design and development together.
How much cheaper is this than a Seattle agency?
Significantly. We scope a fixed price during a free discovery call — you'll see the difference immediately.
How fast can you ship an MVP?
Most MVPs ship in 6–10 weeks. Because design and development run in parallel with no handoff delay, we move faster than agencies that treat them as separate phases.
Do I own the code?
Yes, fully. You own the codebase, design files, and all associated accounts. No lock-in, no ongoing licensing.
