Greta Agency
vs Netguru.
Netguru is a large enterprise agency with a long track record. We're built for the founders who can't afford to wait. Here's an honest breakdown of when each makes sense.
Head to Head
Lean, AI-assisted engineering. Senior engineers ship production-ready products with minimal overhead and maximum velocity.
Large Polish software agency with global delivery centres. Process-heavy model optimised for enterprise scale.
1–4 week MVPs. Tight feedback loops with founders mean decisions happen in hours, not sprint reviews.
Typical engagements run 3–6 months before meaningful delivery. Discovery and workshops front-load the timeline.
AI-native from the ground up. Every workflow — code review, testing, deployment — is accelerated by modern AI tooling.
Slowly integrating AI into existing processes. Traditional delivery model hasn't fundamentally changed.
Startup-friendly project pricing. You know the cost before work begins — no surprise invoices.
Premium agency rates starting at $40–80/hr across large teams. Projects easily exceed $100K for modest scope.
Small, senior-only squads. No junior developers, no unnecessary roles — every seat adds direct value.
Large cross-functional teams with designers, developers, PMs, QA, and account managers — billable hours everywhere.
Direct access to the engineers building your product. Async-first with real-time availability when it matters.
Account management layer between you and the technical team. Formalised reporting cycles slow down decisions.
100% yours from commit one. Your repo, your infrastructure, your IP — always.
Code is transferred on project close, but built on their internal component libraries and patterns.
Built for founders who pivot. Scope changes are absorbed into the working process without renegotiating the contract.
Formal change management process. New requirements require SOW amendments and timeline renegotiation.
We stay engaged as your engineering partner — new features, scaling, and iteration on your roadmap.
Structured maintenance contracts available, but active development post-launch requires a fresh engagement.
Startups and scale-ups that need to ship real products fast without sacrificing quality or burning runway.
Enterprise clients with large budgets, long timelines, and a preference for established agency credentials.
