Concept development, refining the revenue model, user experience, visual design, development, market launch support, and aftercare—creating a successful app involves much more than just programming.
Since 2011, Pinch has developed dozens of successful news apps, including those for NRC, De Telegraaf, and De Standaard. A comprehensive approach and the integration of the right expertise ensure the highest chance of success while allowing media companies to focus on their core business. From idea to launch and beyond, Pinch takes care of the entire process.
A solid concept is the foundation
A successful app starts with a strong concept. Pinch has extensive experience with different types of news apps, including newsfeed, e-paper, and feedpaper. Thanks to our in-depth market knowledge, we can also advise on the best revenue model for your app.
Does a paid app, subscription model, freemium, advertising, or sponsorship work best for your app concept and target audience? In practice, we often apply a combination of these models.
Creating a successful app is about more than just building the technology. We guide you from concept to launch, ensuring that your app reaches its full potential. This includes defining the target audience, identifying the problem the app solves, and determining the necessary functionalities. We can also assist in setting up MaaS (Mobility as a Service) solutions. Curious about how Pinch approaches this? Read more about our development process.

Throughout the development process, a dedicated project manager ensures smooth execution, overseeing both the process and communication between the client and the app makers who work on the app daily.
