    Aryavrut vs building in-house

    When you need custom software, you can hire a studio that has built it before, or recruit an in-house team and build the capability yourself. Both are valid — it mostly comes down to how fast you need it and whether software is becoming a permanent core function.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is it faster to hire Aryavrut or build in-house?

    Usually Aryavrut — the senior team already exists, so work reaches production in weeks rather than the quarters it takes to hire, onboard and ramp an in-house team.

    Will I depend on Aryavrut forever?

    No. Source code, infrastructure and documentation are handed over, so your own team (or a retainer, if you prefer) can take it forward.

    When does in-house make more sense?

    When software is a permanent, central capability you want compounding internal knowledge for — and you can absorb the hiring time and risk.
