Challenge

BlueShak wanted the ease of a neighbourhood garage sale - quick, local, no-fuss buying and selling - inside a mobile app. That meant full UI/UX design, a cross-platform build, a backend to support it, and a way to moderate what got listed.

How we partnered

We designed the UI/UX and built the cross-platform app in React Native, with a Laravel PHP and MySQL backend exposing REST APIs on a microservices architecture. An admin dashboard let the BlueShak team manage users, verify listings and moderate inappropriate content, alongside a WordPress site to drive downloads.

Where AI helps here

Marketplace apps like BlueShak benefit from AI in two clear spots: automatic listing categorisation from photos, and smart moderation that flags inappropriate content before a human has to look at it.

A shipped iOS app with the backend and moderation tools to run it.

BlueShak launched on the App Store with a working marketplace, a moderation dashboard keeping listings clean, and a website driving new downloads.
