What we build
Why Root Oak Labs?
Senior-only development
You work directly with experienced developers. No juniors, no handoffs through account managers.
Fast delivery
MVPs in 4–8 weeks. We focus on shipping working software quickly so you can start learning from users.
Fixed-price projects
We quote fixed prices for defined scopes, not hourly rates with unpredictable totals.
Netherlands-based
Same timezone, Dutch business culture, easy collaboration. EU data processing, GDPR-compliant by default.
Real SaaS experience
We run our own SaaS products. We understand user onboarding, churn, pricing, and what it takes to scale.
Our approach to custom web development
Start with the right problem
Too many web development projects fail because they build the wrong thing. We start every engagement by understanding your users, their pain, and the simplest thing you can build to address it. Scope discipline is our biggest value-add — we push back on features that don't serve the core goal.
Modern, maintainable technology
We use Python (FastAPI) for backends — fast, async, type-safe. React with TypeScript for frontends — component-based, scalable. PostgreSQL for databases — battle-tested, great tooling. The stack is straightforward to hand over to another team or internal developer if needed.
GDPR and EAA compliance included
Dutch and EU regulations matter to us. We build with GDPR in mind — proper data handling, consent flows, privacy defaults. For businesses with public-facing websites, we also build to meet the European Accessibility Act (WCAG 2.1 AA) requirements where applicable.

Common questions
Do you work with companies outside the Netherlands?
Yes. While we're based in the Netherlands, we work remotely with clients across Europe. Most of our collaboration happens asynchronously with regular video calls — no travel required.
Can you take over an existing project?
Yes. We regularly take over existing codebases that need new features, refactoring, or a fresh team. We'll assess what's there and give you an honest view of the work involved before committing.
What does a typical project cost?
MVPs start around €5,000–€8,000. Full-featured web applications and SaaS products typically range from €12,000–€40,000 depending on complexity. We quote fixed prices for defined scopes.
