Digital menu, recommendations, reservations and loyalty, tailored to your venue. One architect builds the app end-to-end, at a fixed price per milestone.

Four ways in, one architect

Already have an engineering team? Then bring me in for an Architecture Review, a single app or the vendor review.

A restaurant app puts your menu, recommendations and regulars on the phone, tailored to your venue. Not a template from an app builder, but a real app in your own repository that grows with you.

Proof, not promises

I've already shipped in this space: Sommelio identifies wines from a photo and gives taste-matched recommendations, live in the App Store and on Google Play. See all apps

What's possible

  • Digital food and wine menu with recommendations
  • Reservations and ordering
  • Loyalty and regular-guest retention
  • For iPhone and Android from one codebase

Start small with a First Version (MVP) from $27,800 or build the full app right away.

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.

From a digital food and wine menu to recommendations, reservations, loyalty and ordering, tailored to your venue, not off the shelf.
