App developer for the Netherlands

App developer for the Netherlands, without the agency layer

One architect with 20+ years of experience, working in English, with the hosting region in the contract and a fixed price per milestone. For Dutch companies without their own technical lead who want the builder, not the account manager.

Dutch product teams are unusually good at cutting through vendor theater, which makes this an easy conversation. No pitch deck, no discovery phase billed by the week. A written scope, a fixed price, and one engineer who is accountable for what ships.

English, EU, and remote

Everything runs in English, which is how most teams in Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Eindhoven work internally anyway. The hosting region for your project is fixed before the build and written into the contract.

Two ways this usually starts

Either a First Version (MVP) built end to end and handed to your team with documentation they can work from, or an architecture review of a product you already have and are about to scale. The second is the cheaper conversation and often the more useful one: most scaling problems were decided eighteen months earlier, in a data model nobody has looked at since.

The deal

  • First Version (MVP) from $27,800 in two to four weeks
  • Architecture Review, $10,500 to $13,900, if you already have a codebase and an IT team
  • Fixed price and scope in writing before the first line of code
  • Market-ready app for iPhone and Android from one codebase from $83,300, macOS native

What you are not paying for

No account manager, no weekly status meeting to justify the account manager, no discovery sprint that produces a document instead of software. Twenty years of building and operating production systems, applied directly to your product.

Price, contract and data

  • Every step has a fixed price, set in writing before work starts; extra scope is added only through a change order you approve in writing.
  • The code sits in your repository from day one; with each paid milestone, the rights to everything delivered up to that point pass to you. Third-party components and pre-existing tools keep their own licences.
  • For rescues and new builds, 90 days of free bug-fixing after launch, on top of the 12-month warranty under the Terms. Ongoing operation starts at $1,400 a month.
  • You contract with DigitalFreedom Global LLC, Wyoming, USA. All prices are net; the tax treatment is clarified before contract and stated in the offer.
  • Our infrastructure is in the United Kingdom and Europe. Where I process personal data on your behalf, we sign a data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR). The provider overview on digitalfreedom.co.za lists the subprocessors, their locations and the contractual safeguards.

Common questions

Do you work in English or Dutch?

English, which is how most Dutch product teams work anyway. Contracts, documentation and the build log are in English; German is available if it suits your side better.

Where is the data hosted?

The hosting region for your project is fixed before the build and written into the contract. For data hosted in the United Kingdom, the adequacy decision of the European Commission applies.

Can you work with our in-house team?

Yes. Common arrangements are a First Version (MVP) built end to end and handed over to your team, or an architecture review of what you already have before you scale it. Both come with a fixed price and documentation your engineers can actually use.

What does it cost?

A First Version (MVP) from $27,800 in two to four weeks, a market-ready app from $83,300, an Architecture Review at $10,500 to $13,900. Fixed price, agreed before the work starts.
