12 years of experience. 15+ apps delivered. One single point of contact, from concept to App Store and Google Play publication.
In short: for your Dublin (1,173,179 residents) project in Leinster, you work directly with me, not a middleman. 12 years of experience, 15+ apps delivered, and a transparent end-to-end process.
You are based in Dublin and you have a mobile app idea.
It is the classic scenario. Enthusiasm is at its peak. You are already picturing your logo on everyone's home screen across Leinster.
The journey between an idea on a napkin and a published app on the stores is long. Very long.
Spoiler: the vast majority of app projects never reach profitability. Not because the initial idea was bad, but because the execution was a mess.
You want to launch a digital project in Dublin. You meet with developers, and suddenly they are throwing words at you like frontend, backend, APIs, and databases.
You nod your head, but honestly, you are lost.
Forget the technical jargon. Building a mobile application is exactly like opening a restaurant in Leinster. It is a precise mechanism where every single element plays a vital role.
Let's imagine your app as this famous restaurant.
The frontend is the dining room. It is the decor, the tables, the menu presentation, the ambiance. It is the actual app your users download to their phones. This frontend must be beautiful, welcoming, and follow strict standards, like Apple's Human Interface Guidelines. If the dining room is ugly, the customer will not enter.
Next, there is the API. The API is the waiter. The customer gives them their order. The waiter runs to the kitchen to pass on the information, then comes back with the hot plate of food. Without the waiter, the dining room and the kitchen cannot communicate.
The key point: the price depends on the technical complexity under the hood, not on the number of pages.
I will tell you the truth, even when it's uncomfortable. That is the promise I make to all my clients from Bordeaux.
Creating an iOS or Android app takes time and money. So, no sugarcoating between us. With 12 years of experience under my belt, if your requirements are all over the place, I will pull the brakes.
The most important factor: I am here to make sure your investment actually serves your users. That is how we build great applications.
I have guided dozens of clients over the past 12 years. And I know exactly what the number one fear is when launching an app project.
It is the fear of losing control.
You hand over your baby, sign an estimate, and then hear absolutely nothing for three months. You become entirely dependent on a technical black box. 🕵️♂️
The key advantage of our collaboration is total transparency.
Even if I am not physically sitting in your office in Dublin, you see absolutely everything that is happening.
To achieve this, we set up simple and highly effective workflows.
Dublin is an hour behind me and full of companies whose head office is somewhere else, which usually means the app has to fit rules written in another country. Worth naming early: the constraint is rarely technical, it is which jurisdiction's data rules the product has to satisfy.
That question has a habit of arriving late and changing a lot. An app built for Irish users, then extended to a US parent company's customers, may suddenly need different consent flows, different retention rules and a different hosting region. None of those are difficult in themselves. All of them are painful once you have live users, because changing where data lives means migrating it, and changing what you collect means deciding what to do with what you already collected.
Dublin's concentration of large technology employers has a second effect worth being straight about: the local market for developers is competitive and expensive, and a lot of the enquiries I get are from people who have already tried to hire and found the timeline unacceptable. That is a legitimate reason to work with someone outside, and it also sets a fair expectation. I am one person. I can carry a product end to end and I can do it quickly, but I cannot replace a team, and if your project genuinely needs one I will tell you at the start.
The practical side is easy. One hour of difference means our working days are effectively the same, so questions get answered within the hour rather than the day, and a weekly call is enough structure for most builds. English is the working language throughout, which removes the small friction that translation adds even when everyone involved is competent in the other language.
With Invent Better, the person who understands your project is the person who writes it. No sales representative, no account manager in between, no handover between three teams. You talk to the developer from the first call through to launch. On a first product, where most of the decisions are made in the first six weeks, that proximity is worth weeks of calendar time.
You have a project in Dublin. And you are wondering what tools we will use to build your application.
Tech jargon can be intimidating.
I am not going to drown you in incomprehensible technical terms. My role is to choose the absolute best engine for your project in Leinster.
Here are the technologies I use every day, explained simply. 🛠️
You have made the decision to build your app for your audience in Dublin. What happens next?
Many agencies will send you a fifty-page estimate, ask for a deposit, and then disappear for six months. That is the best way to crash straight into a wall.
Here is my step-by-step method for your business in Leinster.
A transparent, iterative process with zero surprises. You see the app grow every single week.
Imagine a well-known e-commerce brand. This company had a responsive website, supposedly adapted for mobile phones.
Their mobile traffic accounted for 65% of their total visits. It was their main digital storefront. But the mobile conversion rate was a dismal 1.2%, compared to 3.8% on desktop. They were literally losing money every single day.
The problem was obvious. The checkout flow was an absolute nightmare of friction.
There were too many steps to pay. The buttons were tiny. The page loading was slow. And customers had to manually enter their credit card numbers for every single order.
We know that 53% of mobile users abandon a page if loading exceeds 3 seconds (Google, 2025). The penalty was immediate.
The solution was to build a true native application. We completely redesigned the experience, leveraging standards like Google's Material Design for Android to ensure flawless navigation.
In short: we do not build everything. We build what your users actually need.
If price is your only criterion, we are probably not a good fit, and saying so early saves us both time. A cheap build is rarely cheaper overall: code written without structure becomes impossible to change, so the second version costs more than the first would have. What you are really buying is the ability to keep changing the app after launch.
If price is your one and only criterion for choosing a developer in Dublin, we are probably not a good fit to work together.
This is not arrogance. It is honesty.
Let's talk about the true value of things in our Ireland.
The global e-learning market is growing by 14% every single year (Statista, 2025). And for good reason: students and professionals in Leinster want to learn anywhere, at any time.
A solid mobile e-learning platform is not just a messy list of videos. It is the ability to securely download those courses to watch them on the Dublin subway without burning through a cellular data plan.
You have to add gamification, achievement badges, and streak tracking to maintain high motivation. For schools, we integrate a direct notification system for parents, ensuring that critical information flows completely without friction.
The restaurant industry has radically changed. If your restaurant in Dublin is not in your regular customers' pockets, you are missing out on massive revenue.
Forget the big delivery platforms that take huge cuts of your margin. The key advantage of having your own application is total control.
Our collaboration is 95% remote via high-quality video calls. Remote work has become the absolute standard for peak efficiency. No more wasting hours in transit. For very large-scale projects exceeding a certain budget threshold, I can travel to Dublin to lead in-person kickoff workshops. But on a daily basis, we communicate instantly via your preferred channel (WhatsApp, Slack, or email), we validate design mockups together, and we do our project reviews over Google Meet, WhatsApp, or Telegram. It is faster, much more direct, and significantly more cost-effective for everyone involved.
It is absolutely not mandatory. In reality, I greatly prefer to start with a simple fifteen-minute video call. Many clients waste months writing fifty-page specification documents that become entirely obsolete by the second week of development. The most important factor is defining the core problem you are trying to solve in Leinster. Then, we build those exact specifications together, using an agile approach, basing our decisions on actual user needs rather than wild, untested theories.
I have delivered over fifteen major projects across highly varied sectors: healthcare, tourism, e-commerce, logistics, and education. Even if I have not yet worked in your highly specific micro-niche, the fundamental principles of building a robust mobile application are totally universal. The high-quality standards remain exactly the same. What changes is your local business logic. My role is to deeply understand that business logic during our discovery call and translate it into an unstoppable technical solution for your customers.
Payment is broken down into three clear milestones, with absolutely zero surprises. Typically, it is a 30% upfront deposit to lock the schedule, 40% midway through development when I deliver a testable working version, and the remaining 30% upon final delivery to the app stores. For very large, multi-month projects, I smooth the payments out monthly. Everything is detailed in writing within the initial estimate, and I never bill hidden hours for last-minute tweaks.
My weekly demonstrations make this situation practically impossible. You do not just discover the finished product six months after signing the contract. Every two weeks, I show you a fully functional version. You provide your direct feedback from Dublin, and I adjust our aim immediately. If we start heading in the wrong direction, we know it after seven days, not at the end of the year. Plus, if during our first call I feel your expectations are technically unfeasible, I will tell you honestly. Better to decline than disappoint.
Yes, I do take over rescue projects developed by other freelancers or cheap offshore teams. The mandatory first step is a one-week technical audit. We look under the hood. Then, I draw up a strict action plan: first, we fix the critical bugs that are driving your users away, we consolidate the technical architecture, and only then do we add your new features. This is often much more cost-effective for your business across Ireland than tearing it all down to start from scratch.
We use direct, asynchronous, and frictionless channels. For quick daily questions, we use Slack. You can drop me a message whenever a brilliant idea hits you. To validate the visual interface, we review mockups together: you leave your comments directly on the drawn screens. For the codebase, everything is hosted transparently on GitHub. Finally, we do a live thirty-minute video checkpoint every single week. I happily adapt to whatever tools your teams in Dublin are already comfortable using. The ultimate goal is absolute efficiency.
I am based on Central European Time (CET) in Bordeaux, France. For my European clients, I am fully available during standard business hours, between 10 AM and 6 PM. If you are located on another continent, I adapt with high flexibility. For clients in nearby timezones, we work in full real-time overlap. For clients further afield, I adapt with flexible scheduling and recorded video updates to stay fully in sync. My average response time during the workweek is always under four hours, no matter where you are.
While you hesitate, your competitors in Dublin are moving forward.
The mobile world moves fast. Very fast. Today, 63% of global web traffic comes from mobile devices (Statista, 2025). If you keep pushing back the creation of your app, someone else will happily take your spot in Leinster.
But be careful, do not confuse speed with haste. Launching an unstable application is the worst possible strategy.
In short: you have to act fast, but above all, you have to do it right. ⏳
In 30 minutes, you will know exactly where to start. No commitment. No technical jargon.
