For people looking for meals

THE CHALLENGE
Everyday meals were hard to find, and harder to run.
Good local messes were spread out, and the people running them were managing everything by hand. The platform had to serve both sides without making either one wait.
For mess owners
- Customers, wallets and discounts lived in different places.
- Menus, plans and deliveries were updated by hand.
- Running more than one mess multiplied the work.
TWO EXPERIENCES
