David Chen, Founder & CEO

Client Overview

RinseRepeat Inc. was founded by David Chen, a non-technical entrepreneur who identified a gap in his local market for a premium, user-friendly laundry and dry cleaning service. With a strong business plan but limited technical expertise, he needed a partner who could not only build the technology but also provide strategic guidance to create a market-ready product that would attract both customers and investors.

Problem

David needed to launch a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) quickly to validate his business model and secure funding. The app had to be intuitive for customers, efficient for drivers, and provide him with enough administrative control to manage the early-stage operations.

Key Challenges

Operational Inefficiency:

Developing a full-platform solution (customer, driver, admin) on a tight startup budget.

Poor Employee Experience:

Ensuring a seamless and bug-free user experience to build a strong initial brand reputation.

Lack of Data:

Building a scalable architecture that could support future growth without a complete rewrite.

Security & Integration:

Moving quickly from idea to launch to seize the first-mover advantage in the target city.

Our Solution

We deployed our "Mobile App MVP Launch Kit" using a dedicated POD.

🎯 Focused MVP Scope:

We collaborated with David to prioritize essential features for launch: simple booking, real-time tracking, secure payments, and a basic driver/admin panel.

📱 Native App Development:

We built native iOS and Android apps to provide the best possible performance and user experience.

☁️ Scalable Backend:

We used AWS serverless architecture to ensure the backend could scale automatically with user demand while keeping initial costs low.

⚡ Agile Methodology:

We worked in two-week sprints, providing David with a new, testable build regularly, allowing for rapid feedback and iteration.

Implementation and Execution

Design Sprint:

Conducted a one-week design sprint to finalize the UI/UX and user flow.

Parallel App Development:

Developed the customer-facing iOS and Android apps in parallel.

Secure REST API:

Admin Panel Development:

Developed a lightweight web-based admin panel for order and user management.

Stripe Payment Integration:

Integrated Stripe for secure and reliable payment processing.

Rigorous QA & Testing:

Performed rigorous QA and automation testing to ensure a stable launch.
