Project Summary

A mental wellness organization hired Valere Labs to develop a cross-platform mobile app and an administrative portal to deliver subscription-based (SaaS) mental health services to corporate employees and college students. Valere Labs analyzed provided mockups, helped define user stories, and built the platform using PHP Laravel (backend) and React (frontend), hosted on AWS. The team launched the platform within the desired timeframe, used Jira and weekly sprints for project management, and remained flexible to changing requirements. The engagement began in April 2021 and is ongoing.

Project Solution

Valere Labs developed a cross-platform mobile app and an administrative portal for the client's mental wellness platform. They analyzed provided mockups and helped define user stories, implemented the backend using PHP Laravel and built the frontend using React. The vendor hosted the platform on AWS and implemented a month-long user journey with live workshops, daily mindfulness missions, microlearning videos, and survey tracking. The core vendor team was approximately 6–8 people with Ayush as the project manager.

Launched within the client's desired time frame
Delivered an administrative portal enabling the client to manage and maintain user journeys
Strong project-management practices: responsive team, weekly sprint planning and Jira usage
Experienced downtime and a 10-day data loss due to single-server infrastructure, prompting plans to rebuild architecture and add AWS expertise

Quality of Deliverables

There were some architecture and server problems along the way, but we still launched the app within the timeframe we wanted. The Valere Labs team was flexible and handled our changing requirements well. They use a shared Jira board to keep the workflow organized and decide which development items come first.
