All the software you need. $4,500 a month.
Think of Vroni as your dev team. Whatever comes up, you send it over: new features, bug fixes, rough ideas, the thing you keep putting off. We work through your list, month after month, with heavy AI leverage. Same quality you'd get hiring senior developers, at a fraction of the price. You deal directly with Vroni's founder, Vincent Schmalbach.

We built Vroni. Then we learned something.
Vroni is our AI software delegate: assign it software tasks, get back finished pull requests. We built it for ourselves and ran our entire product development on it.
Then we learned what most companies actually want. Not another AI tool to operate. The software, done. So we put senior developers in front of the AI and made it one flat price. It built our products; now it builds yours.
- 15+ years
- of building software and online businesses behind it
- 100+
- software tasks shipped to production per month
- $4,500
- one flat monthly price for all of it
The task rate comes from implementation summaries across real production repositories: 670+ tasks over the past six months, not demo prompts.
You send it. We ship it.
There's no tool to learn and no process to adopt. Send things the way you'd send them to a developer you trust.
- 1
Send what you have
A ticket, a bug report, a rough idea, a screenshot, three sentences in an email. By email or GitHub. We ask the right questions and turn it into something buildable.

Vincent handles it
Vincent Schmalbach, Vroni's founder, figures out what actually needs to happen and builds it, with a lot of AI in the loop. If a project needs more hands, other senior developers join in. Nothing goes out without him checking it.

You get working software
The finished work arrives with a plain-language summary. Approve it, ask for changes, or ask us to handle deployment. Follow-ups are included.
We work one task at a time, at machine speed: the next one starts the moment the current one ships. Big months and quiet months cost the same.
“Vincent works very well asynchronously: communication stays focused, there is little unnecessary back-and-forth, and he still raises the important questions when needed.”
Whatever you want built, send it.
Bring a live product, a messy codebase, a greenfield idea, or a list of problems. If it's software, it's included.
SaaS and product changes
Features, onboarding, billing flows, dashboards, admin tools, permissions, and product workflows.
Internal tools and automation
Back-office apps, reporting, approval flows, CRM workflows, imports, exports, and operations software.
AI integrations
AI features, agents, content pipelines, classification, extraction, research workflows, and automation.
Codebase rescue
Broken features, legacy upgrades, failed handoffs, performance problems, flaky integrations, and technical debt.
Web and mobile apps
Modern web stacks, APIs, TypeScript frontends, mobile app backends, and new apps built from a rough brief.
Data and integrations
Third-party APIs, webhooks, payment providers, background jobs, queues, and repetitive business processes.
"But our product is complicated, and nothing is written down."
Good. That describes almost every company we take on. Hardly anyone comes to us with tickets, specs, or a tidy process; the product lives in someone's head, a Slack thread, and five years of decisions nobody documented. Understanding products like that is not an obstacle to this offer. It's the skill it's built on: our senior engineers have spent their careers dropping into other people's products, learning the unwritten rules, and working out what actually needs to be built.
You don't need to prepare anything. Send the first thing in whatever form it exists. We read the code, ask the few questions that matter, and remember the answers. Every task teaches us more about your product, so the explaining gets shorter every month, not longer. When a call genuinely helps, we do a call. What we won't do is turn your roadmap into a meeting schedule.
“Vincent is that rare breed of web developer who just gets it. You have a chat, you express what you need, and he comes back with what you asked for.”
What the same money buys elsewhere.
Compare Vroni with hiring an agency, a freelancer, or a full-time developer.
| Agency | Freelancer | New hire | Vroni | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | $15-50k | $8-15k | $12k+ loaded | $4,500 flat |
| Starts | after the SOW | in 2-6 weeks | in ~3 months | this week |
| Scope changes | change order | renegotiate | n/a | just send it |
| Who does the work | juniors, senior markup | one person | one person | AI system + senior review |
| Walk away | contract exit | notice period | severance | cancel anytime |
Market ranges for senior-level work. Your quotes may vary; our price doesn't. And agencies never publish prices. That's the tell.
“Having Vincent on retainer has been excellent. He's tackled some major technical challenges for us, notably significantly improving our website's performance.”
Why is this so cheap?
Because most of the grunt work is automated. Vroni's founder has worked this way since OpenAI's first API beta, and over the years that turned into a system: it reads the codebase, plans the change, writes the code, runs the checks, and fixes what breaks. He steers it and reviews everything before it reaches you.
An agency bills you for meetings, project managers, and juniors learning on your budget. Here you pay for one senior head and the machines. The cost structure changed; the quality bar didn't.
And to be clear: you're not buying AI. You're buying finished software. When the AI isn't enough, it gets built by hand, same price. You bought the result, not the method.
“He delivers clean code and reliable implementation. We especially value how quickly he gets into mature projects and finds solutions that fit the existing state of the codebase.”
Easy to start, easy to walk away.
We take on a limited number of companies and onboard each one personally.
14-day money-back guarantee
If the first 14 days don't convince you, you get your money back. The guarantee covers you until you approve the first pull request we deliver; once you do, it has done its job.
One task at a time
We focus on one task per client and pull the next the moment one ships. The focus is where the quality comes from.
Cancel anytime
Month to month. No contract exit, no notice period, no severance. Stop whenever it stops making sense.
“He worked on performance optimization, customer-specific features, and a major custom reporting system.”
Is the flat rate right for you?
Best fit
- Companies with a live product and more to build than they have hands to build it
- Founders and operators who need a dev team but don't want to hire one
- Businesses that own a codebase but lost their developer
- Teams about to brief an agency or open a job req. Try this first.
Not the right fit
- Hardware and deep embedded systems work
- Staff augmentation. We deliver outcomes, we don't fill seats or join your standups.
- Speed-over-everything work where code quality doesn't matter
- Shopping for the cheapest possible code. This is senior work at a price the AI makes possible, not bargain code.
Questions before you send the first task.
Is it really all the software I need?
Yes, with two honest caveats. We work your list one task at a time: you always have something in flight, we pull the next task the moment one ships, and there is no task counter and no meter. And the price covers one product, which is typically one repository; if you run more than that, we sort it out in the first conversation.
What if the AI can't handle my task?
Then it gets built anyway. You're not buying AI; you're buying shipped software. When the AI isn't enough, senior engineers do it the old way, at the same price. You bought the outcome, not the method.
We don't have tickets, specs, or a real process. Will this work?
That's most of our clients. Decisions in someone's head, requirements in a Slack thread, a product full of unwritten rules. Send it in whatever form it exists. We read the code, ask the few questions that matter, and remember the answers, so every task needs less explanation than the one before.
Who actually does the work?
I'm Vincent Schmalbach, a senior full-stack engineer with 15+ years of experience, and I built Vroni. My team and I run every engagement: the system produces, senior engineers architect, steer, and review. Nothing reaches your repository without senior review.
Do I need to learn a tool or log in somewhere?
No. Send us what you have by email or GitHub issue, whichever you already use. There's a dashboard if you want to watch progress, but it's optional. The only requirement is a GitHub repository to deliver into, and we can set one up for new projects.
Who owns the code?
You do. Everything is delivered into your repository as pull requests and is yours from the first commit. Access is scoped to the repositories you choose and revocable at any time.
How fast do tasks come back?
It depends on the task, and we won't invent a number. Small, well-bounded tasks often come back fast; bigger pieces get broken down and delivered as a sequence of pull requests. You'll always know what's in flight and what's next.
Send us the first task.
One real task from your list. A feature, a fix, the thing you've been putting off. Your first 14 days are covered by the money-back guarantee, so the risk stays with us.
