Apps · Marketing · Rotterdam

We build the app. Then we make sure people use it.

adfirm is a small studio in Rotterdam. We design and build apps and web platforms around what your customers actually need, then run the marketing that brings those customers to the door.

What we do

Two halves of one job.

Most agencies either build or market. We do both, so the product you launch and the way you launch it are designed together, by the same people.

Mobile apps

iOS and Android apps built on a scope we agree on together. Native where it matters, cross-platform where it saves you money.

Web platforms

Customer portals, booking systems, shops and internal tools. Fast, accessible, and yours to own, with no lock-in to us.

Product design

Research, user flows, prototypes and interfaces. We test with real users before anyone writes production code.

Marketing

Search, social and paid campaigns run against targets we set with you. Monthly reporting you can actually read.

Brand & content

Naming, identity and copy that sounds like you, in Dutch and English. Photography and video direction when the project needs it.

Automation & data

Connecting the tools you already use, removing manual work, and dashboards that show what is actually happening.

How we work

Geen woorden maar daden.

Rotterdam has a saying: no words, just deeds. Our process is short on ceremony and long on working software.

  1. 01

    Listen

    A first conversation about your business, not about technology. It costs nothing, and we will tell you if we are not the right fit.

  2. 02

    Shape

    A discovery sprint of one to two weeks. We map what matters, sketch the solution and put a fixed price on the first release.

  3. 03

    Build

    Working software in your hands every two weeks. You test it, we adjust, and nothing is a surprise at the end.

  4. 04

    Launch & grow

    We ship, measure and keep improving. The marketing plan is ready before launch day, not after.

Selected work

Made for people who use it every day.

A few recent projects. We are happy to walk you through any of them in person.

Repair booking app for a bike workshop

Customers book a slot, get a photo when the bike is ready and pay in the app. The workshop runs its day from one screen.

iOSAndroidLaunch campaign

Crew planning for inland shipping

A planning tool that replaced a shared spreadsheet. Skippers see their schedule on their phone; the office sees the whole fleet.

Web platformAutomation

Loyalty programme for a bakery chain

Twelve shops, one digital card and a weekly email people actually open. Built alongside the brand refresh that came with it.

About

Small by design.

adfirm is a team of six in Rotterdam: four developers, a designer and a marketer who used to be a developer. We started the studio after watching good products fail quietly for lack of marketing, and good campaigns send people to products that were not ready. Doing both halves fixes that.

We take on a few projects at a time. The people you meet in the first conversation are the people who do the work.
