Convenient storage for city explorers. StoreMe’s main challenge for us was to create a platform that connects individuals looking for convenient short-term storage with local businesses ready to make space available. 

One of the company’s challenges was to assure users that the drop-off points are safe.
Rigorous vetting and user reviews help keep the service running smoothly. At a more technical level, the app had to use location data and present it in a user-friendly way.

OUR ROLE
Useful apps for frequent travelers
The aim was to create a mobile app for Android and iOS. Initially, the client was set to use React Native technology. We built a backend system in order to create a proper marketplace service. The system also allows managing locations, prices varied based on the city/state. The system works as a SaaS which means any location can become the so-called “hosts” which share their space to store luggage.

Creating a React Native mobile app for two different platforms (iOS and Android) still when React Native is a new technology took some expertise.

Another one was to guarantee the appropriate efficiency of the mobile app to have a real-time display of all possible locations in the vicinity. 

Furthermore, the implementation of the service price estimate model of StoreMe, connected with the length of time of the storage, acknowledging discounts, taxes and dividing the profit between the host and the StoreMe platform operator.

OUTCOME
Store your bags with confidence
Our team delivered a seamless application currently running in major cities across the United States and Canada.
Espeo received the designs and concept and built out the application from scratch. There were three full-stack developers, a tester, and a project manager working together with the StoreMe team throughout development. We built the mobile app, web app for hosts, and created the system infrastructure powered by AWS before finally testing for usability.
