The challenge was to create a user-friendly, secure platform that could effectively bridge the gap between homeowners and skilled tradespeople. The system needed to handle user profiles, reviews, quote requests, secure messaging, and milestone payments.
Additionally, the platform had to be scalable to accommodate a growing user base, ensure data privacy, and provide a seamless experience across web and mobile interfaces while maintaining trust and quality in service provision.
