Your app, built with guarantees.

We build apps, web apps and websites for founders and companies, for a fixed price. You see every screen first. Then you pay per demo, only for what you've seen.

  • Money back on the design

    Start with an app design. Not happy after the rounds of changes? You get your money back.

  • Pay per demo

    You only pay for what you've seen. You may stop after any demo.

  • On time, or a discount

    If we go live late through our fault, 2.5% of the price comes off for every week.

  • No lock-in

    After the final invoice, the code is yours. Your app can always move to your own account.

What we build

Four kinds of projects. For each one you know upfront what it costs and how long it takes.

  • Apps for iPhone and Android

    We design every screen first, then build one app for iPhone and Android. Publishing to the App Store and Google Play included.

    From €10,000 6–12 weeks

  • Web apps and SaaS

    Client portals, dashboards, internal tools and SaaS products. With sign-in, payments and a backend of their own.

    From €7,500 4–10 weeks

  • MVPs for startups

    The first version of your product: small enough to launch fast and learn from real users.

    From €7,500 4–8 weeks

  • Websites

    Fast websites, built in code. No WordPress, no plugins, and easy to find in Google.

    From €2,500 2–4 weeks

See it first, then decide.

You don't have to build a complete app straight away. Start with a design, and pay for the build per demo.

  • App design

    From €1,500 1–2 weeks

    Your app's main screens, clickable on your own phone. So you know exactly what you'll get before you decide. If you don't like the design after two rounds of changes, you get your money back. Test it with users or show it to investors. If we build the app within six months, we deduct the design from the price.

  • Pay per demo

    No extra cost Stop after any demo

    Apps, web apps and MVPs are paid per demo: after the demo of each part, you pay for that part. So you only pay for what you've seen. You may stop after any demo, and you take the code with you.

All prices exclude VAT.

Work out what your project costs

From first call to launch

You always know where your project stands.

  1. Week 1

    Intro call and quote

    A free 30-minute video call about what you want built. Within a week you get a plan with a fixed price: what we build, in what order and when.

  2. Before we build

    Design first

    We design every screen together with you. You see exactly what you'll get and change what isn't right yet. Only then do we start building.

  3. Every week

    Build and test

    We show what's done. You test it on your own phone or in your browser, and steer where needed.

  4. Launch and after

    Launch and maintenance

    We put your app in the App Store and Google Play, or your web app online. After that we keep everything up to date if you want, cancel any month.

We make our own apps too.

Besides client work, we publish apps of our own. So we know the whole road: from the first design to Apple's review and the updates after.

Frequently asked questions

Question not listed? Email info@swivra.nl

Build an app with AI, or have it built?

How much does it cost to build an app?

An app for iPhone and Android starts at €10,000. A web app starts at €7,500, an MVP at €7,500 and a website at €2,500. All prices exclude VAT. What your project costs depends on what it needs to do. After the intro call you get a fixed price, so you know where you stand before we start.

Can I see what I get first?

Yes. You can have just an app design made first, from €1,500: your app's main screens, clickable on your own phone. So you know exactly what you'll get before you decide whether we build the app. If you don't like the design after two rounds of changes, you get your money back. If you have the whole app built straight away, we also design every screen first. We only start building once the design is right.

My budget is smaller. Can I still get something built?

Yes. Start with an app design, from €1,500, and use it to test your idea or show it to investors. Or start with an MVP: only what's needed to launch, from €7,500. Apps, web apps and MVPs are paid per demo, at no extra cost: after each demo, the part you've seen.

Can't I just build an app with AI?

For a first version to show your idea, that works fine. If your app has to go in the App Store, or customer data or payments go into it, you soon get stuck: Apple's and Google's rules, security, the GDPR and maintenance. If an AI tool is enough for what you want, we will tell you. Already built something with AI and got stuck? Then we finish it.

How long until my app is live?

An MVP is usually live within 4 to 8 weeks, a full app within 6 to 12 weeks. A website usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. The quote comes with a week-by-week plan. For the App Store, allow a few days for Apple's review.

What if you run late?

Then you get a discount. The quote states the date your app goes live. If we go live late through our own fault, 2.5% of the price comes off for every week, up to 25%. If we're waiting on you, for example for texts or feedback, or you add something along the way, the date moves with it. You hear about that straight away.

Do you build for iPhone and Android?

Yes. We build with React Native and Expo: one codebase for both platforms. That saves time and money, and the app feels like a real app on both. We also handle publishing to the App Store and Google Play.

How do we keep in touch during the project?

However suits you: WhatsApp, email or a video call. Every week we show you what's done in a demo. You always talk directly to the developer building your project, not to a go-between.

Swivra is one person. What if you drop out?

Then your project doesn't stop. If Nash drops out, for example through illness, a developer from our network takes it over. That works because we build with common tools: React Native, React, TypeScript and Firebase. And accounts like Firebase and your domain are in your name from the start. So you never depend on us alone.

Who owns the code?

You do. Once the final invoice is paid, we transfer the copyright in the code to you in writing. Under Dutch law that doesn't happen by default: without a transfer, it stays with the maker. Accounts like Firebase and your domain are in your name from day one. We publish your app on your own Apple and Google accounts, or for free on Swivra's. If you want it on your own account later, we move it over at no cost.

What happens after launch?

Apps need maintenance. iOS and Android ship new versions every year, and the packages an app uses need updates. We handle that with a maintenance plan from €150 a month, cancel any month. New features are a separate job with a fixed price. Rather take it from here yourself? Then we hand everything over properly.

What other costs are there?

Apple charges 99 dollars a year for a developer account, Google a one-off 25 dollars. If your app goes on Swivra's account, you don't pay those. Firebase hosting is pay-as-you-go; with few users you often stay within the free limits. You pay those costs directly to the provider, with no markup from us.
