Scaling a Mission-Driven Platform Connecting Caregivers
Case Study: Keep Company
Keep Company partnered with Melt Studio to evolve from a manually operated support program into a scalable SaaS platform. Through technical expertise, a full MVP build, and nearshore collaboration, we delivered solutions that established a robust groundwork for growth.

THE CHALLENGE
From Human-Driven to Software-Driven
Keep Company initially delivered its coaching and support services manually, managing logistics, reporting, and member experience. They needed a digital platform that maintained human warmth while enabling efficiency, user autonomy, and measurable outcomes.

Most of my favorite service experiences occur when the company foresees my needs and questions before I ask. For example, digital trackers that inform me on the progress of my service (eg Dominos, Amazon, etc). Other service experiences I especially enjoy occur when a company integrates its solution with another solution I already use to create synergies or efficiencies (eg Uber + Expensify), and when a company provides painless returns/discounts when I'm not satisfied with the product's qualities (eg REI).
