Schedule an introductionTransparency for e-commerce, CMS and custom work
For most categories, we act purely as advisors, not builders. E-commerce, CMS and the "Custom apps & software" category are different: we still actively build websites, webshops, headless solutions and custom apps here. That means it is possible, during a selection scan in one of these categories, that we are ourselves a suitable build partner for the implementation. This has no effect on the independence of the selection advice itself, see our independence charter (Dutch), but we mention it explicitly so it is clear to you upfront. Read more on about us.
How we work
Every project starts with a selection scan, even if you already know you want a full selection process. That way we make sure the approach fits your situation before agreeing on a fixed fee.
We work with a maximum of two to three concurrent projects. That sometimes means a short wait before we can start, but it does guarantee that every project gets personal attention from someone who has spent 15+ years building business software themselves. Read more on about us.
Frequently asked questions
Why are the first selection scans free?+
We are deliberately building a track record first and learning what a good request looks like, before rolling out the paid tiers. See also our independence charter (Dutch) for the full explanation of our business model.
How many projects can you handle at once?+
Deliberately no more than two to three concurrent projects, so every project gets personal attention from an advisor with actual business software experience, instead of an automated process.
What if I only have a small question, not a full project?+
Request a free selection scan, or ask your question via the contact form. Not every question needs a full paid project.
Will these prices ever change?+
Possibly, as we complete more projects. Prices on this page are current and indicative; we always confirm the final rate for your project before it starts.
