Project Summary

Brainium Information Technologies developed an MVP gratitude/social networking app for Android and iOS that lets users send instant, location-bound appreciation to service staff. The vendor implemented a proximity-based restriction (10–15 meters), advised on Bluetooth integration, and delivered an affordable prototype while guiding a non-technical founder through the process. Communication was primarily via email and WhatsApp, and the engagement is ongoing.

Key Challenges

Develop a prototype of a novel idea and concept at a low cost.

Project Deliverables

Android app (gratitude/social networking MVP)
iOS app (gratitude/social networking MVP)
Proximity feature restricting feedback to recipients within 10–15 meters
Prototype/MVP of the social networking platform
Bluetooth integration guidance and planned in-app tipping/vouchers feature

Project Solution

Brainium developed a basic gratitude app for both Android and iOS that allows users to provide and receive instant feedback for service staff. The team implemented a proximity feature limiting compliments to recipients within 10–15 meters to ensure authenticity and provided technical guidance on using Bluetooth. The vendor built the prototype/MVP and is planning the next stage to add in-app tipping and vouchers. The client primarily interacted with one main contact and occasional manager involvement.

Project Outcome

The client received an affordable, marketable MVP they could share with other businesses.
The client gained technical understanding and education about the product and development process during the engagement.
