A live vendor-bidding marketplace for road freight — shippers post loads, truck owners bid in real time, the winner gets the trip. Built as two mobile apps + one back-office that all talk to each other.
Live in production — running real shipments, real bids, real vendor payments
Three surfaces working as one product — vendor mobile app, admin mobile app, and the office system all share one source of truth
From phone calls to a marketplace — the operator stopped finding trucks one phone call at a time. They post a shipment, vendors bid, the best offer wins.
Vendors stopped calling the office to ask "where's my money?" — every payment, with bank reference, is visible to them in their wallet
Real-time everything — no refreshing, no waiting, no asking around
The problem, the decisions, what we built, and the parts we almost got wrong — written out in full.
