Decision snapshot

VerdictChoose Wavect if your brief calls for product judgement and delivery with a named senior core. Start by agreeing the first deliverable, responsible people and acceptance checks with us.

Wavect is best when

  • We take on product judgement and delivery with a named senior core, with scope and responsibilities agreed upfront. Wavect’s offer
  • Our development offer connects scope decisions, reviewable increments and handover.
  • Start by agreeing the first deliverable, responsible people and acceptance checks with us.

The alternative is best when

  • You need a large dedicated team you can scale up and down across parallel workstreams, and depth of bench matters more than founder-level continuity. Objectbay’s own team page gives 30 people in Traun, 30 in Vienna and 10 in Salzburg.1
  • Your program is enterprise or regulated and procurement asks for a certified information security management system. Objectbay states on its site that it is ISO 27001 certified; the pages we opened show the certification mark and the words without a certificate document, a certifying body or a stated scope, so request all three.21
  • You want a vendor with a long track record and named enterprise references. Objectbay publishes 20+ years of experience and 210+ completed projects, with named references including Österreichische Post AG, Raiffeisenverband Salzburg eGen, W&W Informatik, Veritas, Offensity by A1 and Verbund AG.24

Questions to ask before you choose

  1. For product judgement and delivery with a named senior core, what must the first phase cover?
  2. The published AGB puts the guarantee in clause 15 and defines a defect in clause 9.3, and clause 9.9 requires a written cure period of at least 30 days before price reduction or rescission becomes available.5 Ask which of those clauses your own contract keeps, changes or replaces.
  3. Who owns the decision about whether a feature should be built at all, versus only how it gets built?

Commercial risk to watch

  • Objectbay’s AGB describes time-and-materials billing or a fixed sprint fee, invoiced at the end of each sprint with a 14-day payment period.5 Confirm the model and agreed price in your proposal. Request a written quote from Objectbay Software GmbH for the same deliverables, assigned roles, support, taxes and exit terms. Compare it with our agreed outcome fee; a rate or starting package alone does not establish the total cost.
  • A dedicated team is capacity you buy, and a flat sprint fee and time-and-materials answer the question of what you are paying for differently.5 Ask both of us to write down what a sprint owes you as a shipped result and not only as hours, and hold our fixed-price Werkvertrag to the same standard.
  • Headcount is worth confirming: Objectbay’s own team page adds up to around 70 people, while its entry in the Austrian Chamber of Commerce company directory lists 50 employees.17 Directory fields and team pages are updated at different times, so ask for the current number and for the names assigned to your engagement.

Evidence notes

  • Every statement about Objectbay on this page links to the page we took it from, with the date we read it. Two of them are hedged on purpose: the ISO 27001 statement appears as a certification mark and a line of text, without a published certificate or a stated scope, and the free exit after two sprints appears in the advertising but not in the published AGB we read.25
  • The Austrian company register lists Objectbay Software GmbH under FN 285206x at Landesgericht Linz, seat in Traun, registered in 2006, renamed from Objectbay Software & Consulting GmbH in 2018, with EUR 35,000 share capital and no insolvency or liquidation entry.6 We include the register because a comparison should be checkable against it, not only against a website.
  • This comparison uses Objectbay’s own published facts and Wavect’s operating model. It is not a quality claim about Objectbay, which is a reputable, established agency.

Project fit: not limited to small builds

Project size and provider headcount are separate decisions. Wavect’s delivery unit is a named senior core, but that does not limit the work to MVPs or short startup projects. Larger projects are split into phases with separate budgets and acceptance criteria. We also build internal systems and process automations inside a client’s existing repositories, tooling and workflows. A vetted bench supports continuity and scope-specific capacity. A larger provider may still be the better choice when the main requirement is several parallel teams, an incumbent framework agreement or certifications Wavect does not currently hold.

How they actually differ

Six dimensions where an established dedicated-team agency and a senior founder-led team actually diverge.

WAVECT DIMENSION ALTERNATIVE

Senior-only team, two founders, one to three people per engagement, a founder in every call. Specialists work inside the Wavect contract, under our responsibility.

TEAM SHAPE

Its own team page gives 30 people in Traun, 30 in Vienna and 10 in Salzburg.1 Dedicated, certified Scrum teams staffed to the engagement and scalable up or down; the service page states that 100% of its developers are certified Scrum Masters and that none are offshore resources or freelancers.3

Founded 2018. 75+ products shipped across 18 countries. Google 5.0, Trustpilot 4.5, Clutch 5.0, with named case studies you can look up.

TRACK RECORD

Registered in 2006 under FN 285206x at Landesgericht Linz.6 Publishes 20+ years of experience, 210+ completed projects, 94% of customers recommending it within their network and 97% who would hire it again, with named references including Österreichische Post AG, Raiffeisenverband Salzburg eGen, W&W Informatik, Veritas, Offensity by A1 and Verbund AG.24

Weekly outcome retainer from EUR 400 per week, full-stack delivery EUR 10,000 to EUR 30,000 per month, or fixed-price Werkvertrag with a Discovery Phase from EUR 3,500. Published ranges, quote per scope.

PRICING TRANSPARENCY

Objectbay’s AGB describes time-and-materials billing or a fixed sprint fee, invoiced at the end of each sprint with a 14-day payment period.5 Confirm the model and agreed price in your proposal. Request a written quote from Objectbay Software GmbH for the same deliverables, assigned roles, support, taxes and exit terms. Compare it with our agreed outcome fee; a rate or starting package alone does not establish the total cost.

Fractional CTO offer. Product management and the technical call in the same head, with pushback on scope as part of the job.

PRODUCT JUDGEMENT

Ask Objectbay Software GmbH to name the people responsible for this work and specify decision rights, deliverables and handover in the proposal. Published services do not determine the scope of your engagement.

Full products across modern web, mobile, AI, and IoT, with on-chain capability when projects need it.

SCOPE AND STACK

Custom software, web and app development, customer portals, e-commerce, modernization, code audits, AI solutions, platform engineering and Scrum Team as a Service, with the published stack given as Java, JavaScript, Python and Ruby on Rails.2

Austrian GmbH, named founders, contracts under Austrian law. Built for products that need founder-level continuity and judgement, not headcount.

COMPLIANCE AND SCALE FIT

Request the relevant certificate, holder, scope and validity dates from Objectbay Software GmbH. Assess the actual hosting and data-processing arrangements for your requirements.

What Objectbay publishes

The Austrian company register lists Objectbay Software GmbH under FN 285206x at Landesgericht Linz, registered in 2006 with its seat in Traun, with no insolvency or liquidation entry.6

Its own team page gives 30 people in Traun, 30 in Vienna and 10 in Salzburg, so around 70 in total, and its home page publishes 20+ years of experience, 210+ completed projects and a figure of 94% of customers recommending it within their network.12

Named references include Österreichische Post AG, Raiffeisenverband Salzburg eGen, W&W Informatik, Veritas, Offensity by A1 and Verbund AG, across banking, insurance, logistics and manufacturing.4

The core offer is Scrum Team as a Service: certified Scrum teams delivering on a two-week cycle, with the published stack given as Java, JavaScript, Python and Ruby on Rails.32

The site also states that it is ISO 27001 certified, and the pages we opened carry the certification mark and the words without a certificate document, a certifying body or a stated scope, so treat the scope as something to request rather than assume.21

Objectbay sells a delivery team and says so plainly: its Scrum Team as a Service page states that you retain full control over backlog management throughout the collaboration, and that Objectbay coaches and supports you in fulfilling the Product Owner role.3

The same page states that 100% of its developers are certified Scrum Masters and that none of them are near-shore or offshore resources or freelancers.3

Objectbay does not publish pricing on the pages we opened, which is normal for a dedicated-team agency; its AGB does publish the shape of the deal, namely time-and-materials or a flat sprint fee, invoiced at the end of each sprint with 14 days to pay.5

An agency of around 70 people is built for programs that need a bench; a two-founder senior team is built for products that need continuity and judgement from the same heads throughout.1

Free exit after 2 sprints!" on its home page.2

Its published AGB carries the guarantee in clause 15: Objectbay guarantees, for as long as it operates the business, that the software code it developed is free of defects, and clause 15.2 excludes changes made to the code by the client or by a third party.5

The AGB we read does not contain a clause tied to an exit after two sprints.5

First, what counts as a defect: the published AGB defines one as a function-impairing deviation from the valid specification and excludes minor defects, so agree in writing what the specification is.5

Second, the remediation window: the AGB puts repair ahead of price reduction and rescission and requires a written cure period of at least 30 days before either becomes available.5

Third, whether scope changes and IP sit inside or outside the guarantee: the AGB grants the client exclusive, worldwide and unlimited rights to the work results on full payment, and flags open-source components as carrying third-party licence terms instead.5

Ask Objectbay Software GmbH to name the people responsible for this work and specify decision rights, deliverables and handover in the proposal. Published services do not determine the scope of your engagement.

Ask both providers who owns scope, technical decisions and acceptance, and what remains with your team after handover.

Yes. The Austrian company register lists Objectbay Software GmbH under FN 285206x at Landesgericht Linz, registered in 2006 with its seat in Traun, with no insolvency or liquidation entry.6 Its own pages publish 210+ completed projects, a 94% recommendation figure and named enterprise references, and state that it is ISO 27001 certified.24 This page is not a quality argument against them. It is a fit comparison: their dedicated-team model and our senior founder-led model suit different situations, and we would rather you compare the two honestly than guess.
Shape and ownership. Objectbay staffs a dedicated Scrum team you can scale, and its own service page states that you retain full control over backlog management throughout the collaboration while Objectbay coaches and supports you in fulfilling the Product Owner role.3 Wavect is two named founders carrying both product management and the technical call, in a senior-only team. If the open question is execution at scale, Objectbay fits. If it is whether you are building the right product at all, that is the job our fractional CTO model exists for.
Objectbay’s AGB describes time-and-materials billing or a fixed sprint fee, invoiced at the end of each sprint with a 14-day payment period.5 Confirm the model and agreed price in your proposal. Request a written quote from Objectbay Software GmbH for the same deliverables, assigned roles, support, taxes and exit terms. Compare it with our agreed outcome fee; a rate or starting package alone does not establish the total cost.

Not on the pages we opened. The published offer is delivery: custom software, web and app development, customer portals, e-commerce, AI solutions, modernization, code audits, platform engineering and Scrum Team as a Service, plus an AI product discovery workshop, on a two-week delivery cycle, with the Product Owner role coached on the client side.23 If your gap is purely execution capacity, that can be exactly right. If you also need someone to own the roadmap and push back on scope, that is the gap our fractional CTO model is built for.
