The Challenge

A regional restaurant chain wanted to launch its own delivery platform to reduce dependency on aggregators, improve margins, and build a direct relationship with customers. They needed iOS, Android, and a restaurant management portal delivered within 5 months.

Our Solution

We delivered three interconnected Flutter apps (customer, delivery partner, restaurant) backed by a unified Node.js API. Real-time order tracking uses Google Maps Platform with live driver location updates every 5 seconds. Firebase handles push notifications and in-app chat.

Platform Features

What We Built

Every feature was designed to solve a specific business problem—not just to add complexity.

Live GPS Tracking

Real-time driver location updates every 5 seconds with ETA calculation and route optimization.

Smart Order Management

Automated order routing to nearest available driver with intelligent dispatch algorithms.

Cross-Platform Apps

Native-quality Flutter apps for customers, drivers, and restaurant staff on iOS and Android.

Integrated Payments

Stripe, PayPal, and cash-on-delivery with automatic receipt generation and refund handling.

Restaurant Analytics

Real-time dashboards showing order volume, peak hours, popular items, and revenue trends.

In-App Chat

Customer-to-driver messaging for delivery coordination without sharing personal phone numbers.
