10+ years of experience
We built apps for the Municipality of Rotterdam, KNVB, Selecta and dozens of other clients across the Netherlands.
Flutter specialist
As one of the first agencies in the Netherlands, we adopted Flutter early on. One codebase for both iOS and Android.
Dedicated contact person
You always work with the same developers on your project; nobody gets swapped out halfway.
Why us
Looking to have an app built in Rotterdam? We guide the full process from idea to launch: from technical advice and design to development, testing and publication in the App Store and Google Play.
Our team specialises in developing mobile apps for iOS and Android. Rotterdam clients appreciate the short lines of communication: we have no problem stopping by to discuss the details in person.
Of course, you are also very welcome to visit us on the Westblaak.
Our approach
Writing the code is only one part of app development. This is what comes with it.
Sometimes the app has to match your company's existing visual identity, sometimes we design a completely new one. Either way, design is a fixed part of the development process.
If you want both an iOS and an Android app, a cross-platform app with Flutter is almost always the better option: one codebase serves both platforms, which keeps costs down. We advise you on what suits your project best.
Besides the app, we take care of the backend, APIs and hosting. For the whole technical side you have one point of contact.
After launch, we help keep your app visible in the App Store and Google Play. With periodic keyword and listing optimisation, your app stays discoverable by the right users in the long term.

FAQ
We have built several projects for the Municipality of Rotterdam, including the i-Noties app that allows council members to take and manage notes during meetings. That project had high requirements for security and offline functionality.
We also built the Voetbal Rotterdam FR010 app, a platform for the Rotterdam amateur football league with thousands of active users tracking standings, results and schedules. For KNVB Radar we worked on a discrimination-reporting tool for Rotterdam football. Every project started with a no-obligation conversation on the Westblaak, where we turned the idea into something concrete. View all cases in more detail on our website.
The cost depends on the complexity, the chosen platform and the number of features. A first version with core features only (MVP) starts from €10,000 and a basic Flutter app from €15,000; a platform with multiple user roles, a backend and external integrations can quickly reach €30,000 to €60,000 or more. We primarily build with Flutter, which lets us develop iOS and Android from a single codebase. That is cheaper than two separate native apps.
The location, Rotterdam or elsewhere in the Netherlands, has no effect on the price. After a no-obligation introductory call we provide a transparent quote per phase, so you know exactly where you stand.
We develop a wide range of apps: from internal business apps and customer-facing platforms to portals for government organisations. Well-known Rotterdam projects include the i-Noties app for the Municipality of Rotterdam, the Voetbal Rotterdam FR010 app and the KNVB Radar discrimination-reporting tool. We build for both startups and large organisations.
The type of app varies per client: one client needs a booking platform, another a field service app or a learning application. Our approach is always the same: listen carefully, choose the right technology and build in rounds so you can steer along the way.
Yes, you are always welcome at our office on Westblaak 33 in Rotterdam. The office is easily accessible by public transport and by car, and there is parking nearby. We love having a coffee with you while discussing your idea.
Prefer an online call? That works too. We are also happy to come to you if that is more convenient, especially if you want to show us a specific work environment or an existing system. You can easily schedule a no-obligation introduction via our contact page.
No, we work for organisations throughout the Netherlands. A large share of our clients come from Rotterdam and the surrounding area. For many of them, short lines of communication, personal contact and the ability to visit quickly are a welcome bonus.
But we also serve clients in Amsterdam, The Hague, Utrecht, Eindhoven and beyond. Remote collaboration works just as well: we work digitally and visit you in person when it adds value.
Yes, alongside larger organisations. With startups we decide together what goes into the MVP: which features do you need to validate the concept, and which can wait for a later phase? That way no budget goes to features the end user may not need at all.
An MVP starts at €10,000 and can go live within 2 to 3 months. If your idea is not fully worked out yet, we make it concrete together in an intake call and assess whether it is feasible.
Let's grab a coffee. Tell us about your idea and we'll give you our honest take on what's possible.
