MVP Development for Oko Genie Web Service
Smart Services Team
The Idea
Oko Genie is a web service for modern gig economy that connects clients and service providers. The client requested to develop MVP of the entire service from scratch, sharing only its basic idea and vision.
Unlike other marketplaces and directories that match freelancers with local to-do requests, Oko Genie is fully anonymous and doesn't allow direct interaction between Clients and Service Providers. The Client does not pick the Provider manually: the system makes a list of potential providers, and ranks them basing on nearest location, current availability, rating, and other conditions. Push notification is sent to the Provider with highest rank automatically, and if he accepts the order, it is being assigned to him.
Phase 1: Research
We have set several client interview sessions, when the team has gathered the required details of the main user scenarios and required functionality details of the service.
As the result, main business flows were developed, allowing software architect to build the core system accordingly.
Phase 2: UI/UX Prototyping
The next step was to develop user interface of the mobile application in form of wireframes and mockups.
Then, the user flows of both Client and Provider user types were designed in clickable prototypes allowing to walk through the entire order flow from placing to confirming its completion.
Phase 3: GUI Design
Once wireframes and user flows were approved, we developed user interface design of the mobile application. After several rounds of corrections and color palette adjustments, GUI design has got its final look.
In addition to GUI design, the logo and app icons were designed to provide the full set of graphic assets.
Solution
We developed MVP of the entire web service that included the core back-end application, implementation of the main business logic, and mobile applications on iOS and Android platforms.
Core application enables all basic platform features, with an option to expand its functionality upon request.
The service is intended to be mobile-first, with web version to be added on later stages.
