What Eddie does
Eddie (legal entity Inhouse Filming Global B.V.) is a Leiden, Netherlands-based video production company founded in 2015 that operates a co-creation model in which client employees film footage on smartphones or cameras and Eddie's in-house editing team handles post-production. The company serves large corporates, government institutions, and educational organizations across Europe, with a portfolio spanning approximately 5,000 videos produced annually for customers including Eneco, VGZ, Friesland Campina, Carglass, Boehringer Ingelheim, APG, and Gamma. Eddie supplements its core co-creation and high-end production services with custom animations, a Video Branding Toolkit (€3,600), a Gadget Pack hardware bundle (€995-€1,027.84) featuring RØDE wireless audio equipment, and face-to-face training programs (Kickstart Course at €1,450 per session, Creative Course) under a proprietary 'easy as 1-2-3' methodology that has trained over 1,000 business professionals in five years.
The company's underlying technology is the Cobie platform, a video project management system with scripting wizard, structured multi-stakeholder feedback, footage upload, and timeline collaboration capabilities. Cobie was spun off as a separate SaaS company on 2 April 2024, now sold to all video suppliers at €249/month (annual) or €299/month (monthly), while Eddie remains a customer. Eddie explores AI tools to accelerate video creation workflows but has no proprietary AI models or disclosed research pipeline.
Eddie runs a hybrid go-to-market combining inbound enterprise sales (phone, email, contact forms) with a self-serve platform motion for mid-market customers via Cobie, plus e-commerce for hardware sales and direct face-to-face training delivery. Revenue derives from project-based production services, recurring Cobie subscriptions, fixed-price training sessions, hardware sales, and one-off brand tooling engagements. The company is bootstrapped with no disclosed funding rounds and is led by an 11-50 person team of producers, directors, cameramen, and editors, supplemented by a continuous traineeship program for freelance editors.
