Approach
Why this takes weeks, not quarters.
Because no brief passes through three departments, nothing needs translating. And because I work with modern tooling. What that means in practice is set out openly on its own page.
The call
30 minutes, free, and an honest answer at the end about whether I am the right fit.
Scope and fixed price
One page: what gets built, what does not, by when, for how much.
Building, in the open
After roughly two weeks, a first version you can click. Then a steady rhythm.
Handover
Go-live, a walkthrough, documentation, every credential. The code is yours.
Common questions
What businesses ask first.
What does it cost?
Development capacity is €680 a day, bookable from five days, with a framework agreement for longer runs. Fixed-price work starts at €2,500 for a website and €9,000 for a custom web application. You get the exact number after a 30-minute call and a written scope, not before, because a number without a scope is worthless.
How long does it take?
A landing page, two to three weeks. A web application, four to ten weeks depending on scope. You see the first working version much earlier, usually after two weeks.
Why not a hire, or an agency?
Either can be right. A hire takes months of sourcing and onboarding for work that needed shipping this quarter, and leaves a permanent seat for what was a temporary peak. An agency is capacity on paper and overhead in practice: account managers, briefing rounds, and the distance between the person who understood your product and the person writing the code. Stretching the existing team means the roadmap absorbs it. The fourth option is one senior engineer who is productive in your codebase within days and can own a defined slice end to end, at a rate you know before the start.
Do you handle maintenance?
Yes, from €90 a month: updates, security patches, backups, small changes. You do not have to take it. But software nobody maintains becomes a problem within two years.
Do you work remotely?
Yes. Around the Rhineland I am happy to come in person. Everything else works remotely. Across three delivered projects, distance was never the issue.
Tell me what needs shipping.
30 minutes, no obligation, no slide deck. If I am not the right fit I will say so, and point you at someone who is, where I can. Reply within one working day.
