Project Summary

Vention (formerly iTechArt Group) developed a native iOS mobile app and a React.js web app for a next-generation social media platform, working from existing code and iterating to meet the client’s requirements. The vendor conducted performance reviews and scaled the team from two engineers to a fluctuating 27–30-person team. The client reports improved code quality scores, a functioning app nearing public launch, timely delivery, on-budget performance, and growing trust in the vendor.

  • Replace unreliable freelancers and agencies and find a trustworthy development partner

Project Deliverables
