Prompt App Event 2026 — We Did It
On May 15th, we sponsored the Prompt App Event at Sharnbasva University's Cisco Lab — and it was everything we hoped it would be. Over 100 students showed up to build, learn, and compete.
The energy in that room was unreal. Teams building apps from scratch in hours. Ideas that started as rough sketches turned into working prototypes. Students stayed past the deadline just to get that last feature working.
We sponsored this event because we believe the next great product team is probably sitting in a college lab right now, just like we were two years ago. Seeing that belief validated — watching students push themselves, collaborate, and ship — was the best payoff we could have asked for.
A huge thank you to the Prompt Club team, Sharnbasva University, and every student who participated. We're already looking forward to next year.

Building in Public
Why We Started Arthanta
Three friends in a college lab, frustrated by how broken the tech agency model was. Either you paid a fortune for a big firm or you gambled on someone who couldn't deliver. We believed there had to be a third option.
So we started Arthanta. Not with a business plan or funding — just a shared conviction that good software shouldn't require a corporate budget or a blind leap of faith.
This is the story of how we got here, what we've learned, and why we're still at it.

Process
How We Actually Build Products
Every agency has a "process" page. Ours is simple: we listen, we design, we build, we ship. No 50-page proposals, no discovery phases that cost more than the MVP.
Two-week sprints. Working software every cycle. Daily updates. You talk to the people actually writing the code. That's it. That's the secret.
We wrote this down because we realized most people don't know what to expect when working with a dev agency. Here's exactly how we work, what we need from you, and what you can expect from us.

Lessons Learned
Things We Wish Clients Knew
After working with a handful of clients, here are the things we wish every client knew before starting a project. Some of these we learned the hard way.
That a clear brief saves weeks. That "I'll know it when I see it" actually costs more. That the best products are built collaboratively, not handed off over a wall.
None of this is rocket science. But you'd be surprised how many agencies don't say it out loud.
