Fitmate aimed to disrupt this structure by introducing a unified digital solution that would allow users to seamlessly access multiple gyms while giving partners an efficient system to manage members and operations.Fitmate aimed to transform how users access gyms while ensuring performance, security, and scalability.

A web based administration portal and CRM system were developed to help partners manage memberships, content, and operations efficiently. The platform was deployed on scalable AWS infrastructure to support rapid growth and future enhancements.

About NAPA Development

NAPA Development is a technology driven home services platform designed to simplify access to appliance maintenance and electronic servicing. The app enables users to request urgent repairs or schedule services in advance, offering multiple subscription and pricing tiers tailored to customer needs.

By centralizing service discovery, scheduling, billing, and technician coordination, NAPA positions itself as a trusted digital solution for modern home maintenance.

The challenge.

Home maintenance services are often fragmented, requiring customers to coordinate through calls, manual scheduling, and inconsistent pricing structures. NAPA aimed to eliminate this inefficiency by creating a centralized mobile platform that could support urgent service requests, recurring maintenance contracts, and structured service management.

The system needed to handle complex booking flows, stacked service requests, live technician tracking, flexible billing logic, and secure authentication. At the same time, administrators required full operational visibility for technician assignment, billing management, and service category control. Delivering a seamless experience across customers, technicians, and supervisors required a scalable backend architecture and carefully designed user workflows.

NAPA required a scalable and role based service platform capable of managing emergency requests, scheduled maintenance, technician coordination, and transparent billing within a unified and reliable digital ecosystem.

The solution.

Ontik Technology delivered a complete service marketplace platform structured around three primary user roles: customers, technicians, and administrators.

The customer mobile application was developed using React Native, allowing users to register multiple addresses, manage household equipment, combine service requests, and schedule recurring or custom maintenance tasks. An integrated emergency access feature enables instant connection with the NAPA team during urgent situations.

Technicians are supported through a dedicated interface for job updates, location sharing, and task documentation. Real time tracking and interactive scheduling ensure seamless coordination between users and service providers.

The administrative and supervisor panels provide centralized control over technician assignments, job tracking, billing workflows, and service category management. The platform was built using Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, and AWS infrastructure to ensure performance, reliability, and scalability.

Home Run is a real estate investment platform that gamifies property auctions to make them more accessible and engaging. By combining live auction participation with educational content and structured subscription models, Home Run empowers users to interact with property investments in a dynamic and informed way.
