Proof,
not promises.
Two platforms we designed and engineered end to end, shown the way they really run, and Cockpit, a workspace designed for clients to follow delivery. Try that one yourself.

01 Social commerce
Tornado
Every reel is a storefront.
The challenge
Social commerce usually splits shoppers, creators and brands across disconnected tools. Inventory, commissions and content drift out of sync, and heavily filtered content erodes trust in what actually arrives.
The approach
One Flutter codebase powering three purpose-built apps that share a single live state. A product a brand edits, a creator pins mid-live and a shopper adds to cart is always the same product, in real time.
The result
A complete, tested product across all three apps: shoppable video, live selling, memberships, affiliate sampling and analytics, in a dark frosted-glass design system.
Three apps, one live state
Tornado
- Home feed with stories, lives, posts and inline shots
- Shots: vertical video with add-to-cart in the video
- Live shopping with chat, hearts and a shelf that updates live
- Messages, friends, sharing and creator memberships
- Hide or block anyone, and notifications for every order step
Creator Studio
- Wallet, tier and 7-day KPIs at a glance
- Analytics: earnings, funnel, conversion, AOV, top products, cities
- Create shots and posts, or go live with a product control room
- Membership tiers with the exact payout per member
- Affiliate marketplace to request brands' products
Tornado for Brands
- Settlements, escrow, sales and creator share on one home screen
- Orders and returns: accept, pack, ship, approve or contest
- Product catalogue with price, stock, sizes and media
- Creator requests with smart sample / discount recommendations
- Sample dispatch tracking with courier, AWB and due dates
Trust by design
The no-filter policy
Shots, posts and lives publish exactly as captured: no colour filters, beauty effects or AR. Creators confirm it before every publish, and shoppers see an “Unfiltered” badge, so products look the way they'll arrive.
Money, to the paisa
Membership economics
Every payment is split by a dedicated engine on integer money, so it always balances. A ₹99 membership pays the creator ₹71.85.
| GST (inclusive) | 18% carved out |
| Payment gateway | 2% of the charge |
| Tornado, year 1 | 12% of post-GST |
| Tornado, after 12 months | 8%, rewarding retention |
| Creator | The rest, settled instantly |

02 Ride hailing
Bingo
Your ride, the moment you need it.
The challenge
Launching a ride-hailing business from scratch means two apps, an operations dashboard and a server, each with its own edge cases, before the first rupee of revenue. Riders dislike price surprises and waiting in the dark. Captains lose too much of every fare to commission.
The approach
One Flutter and Dart codebase delivers a rider app, a captain app and a web operations console on a shared design system, backed by a single ride server that enforces every rule. Fixed fares, OTP-verified pickups and swipe-to-confirm controls remove the ambiguity from each step.
The result
A complete, tested platform that launches under an operator's own name, colours and fares on iOS, Android and the web, backed by 21 automated API tests. The screens above are real captures from a live test ride between the apps.
Three products, one ride
Rider app
- Book a bike, auto or cab in three taps
- A fixed fare shown before booking, recalculated on the server
- Live arrival countdown, captain name, plate and a four-digit ride OTP
- Share trip and SOS on every in-ride screen
- Receipt, rating, optional tip and full trip history
Captain app
- Go online and accept with one swipe inside a 15-second ring
- A zero-commission breakdown on every payment
- Wrong OTPs refused by the server
- Today's earnings, the week at a glance and instant payout
- One big action per screen, confirmed with a swipe
Operations console
- Revenue, rides, live rides and captains online, against yesterday
- A live fleet map and an activity feed that refreshes every two seconds
- Open any ride for its timeline and OTP, or cancel it
- Suspend a captain or block a rider in one click
- Fare tables and announcements reach both apps within 10 seconds
One ride, five states
- searchingRider books
Picks a drop, sees fixed fares for bike, auto and cab, and books. A ride OTP is created.
Rider app - acceptedCaptain accepts
Nearby captains of that vehicle type see the request with a 15-second ring. The first swipe wins.
Captain app - arrivedAt the pickup
The rider watches the countdown and plate. The captain swipes “Arrived”.
Captain app - ongoingOTP starts the trip
The rider reads out the code. The server checks it and never shows it to the captain.
Both apps - completedPaid and rated
Payment is settled by UPI, wallet or cash, then the rider rates and tips.

The full Bingo case study

03 Client delivery workspace
HALO Cockpit
Full visibility. Every single day.
The challenge
Clients often have to wait for a status call to learn what shipped, what is next and what a project has spent. Decisions get buried in email threads, and problems surface late.
The approach
One workspace that shows sprint progress, the next live demo, open decisions, budget and files. Clients see the same view as the delivery team, and every decision is kept on record.
The result
A single place to answer the questions a client asks most: where are we, what do you need from me, and are we on track? Try it below.

Sample data. Nothing you do here is saved, and it doesn't show a real client's project.

- One shared viewYou and the team work from the same picture of the project.
- Decisions on recordEvery choice is logged with its reason. Nothing gets lost.
