Our Verdict

Traditional agencies aren't overcharging—they have legitimate overhead: sales teams, project managers, multiple developers, office space, and compliance infrastructure. That's necessary for enterprise work but wasteful for MVPs. Webscension operates lean: one expert, direct communication, standardized process. You get professional MVP development without paying for enterprise overhead.
