THE CHALLENGE

Build Trust and Traction Before Product-Market Fit

Before PathWork could scale, they needed to validate their product story and attract investor interest. That meant creating a powerful website and internal tools that communicated legitimacy, enabled demos, and signaled a strong technical foundation for what’s next.

OUR SOLUTION

A Strategic Site and Backend Foundation That Raised Millions

Requirements

Simplification

We focused first on defining a clean, bold narrative for PathWork’s landing page—positioning it as an AI-powered platform for insurance distribution. Visual clarity and speed were essential to make investor exploration frictionless.

Application

Building

Using a modern tech stack (NextJS, TypeScript), Melt built the public marketing site and internal dashboard modules. We also connected backend endpoints for inbox management, prequal envelope assignment, and carrier flow testing.

Prototype

Release

The marketing platform launched in time to support fundraising, showcasing PathWork’s vision and capabilities. The internal prototype system enabled prequal logic, real-time inbox updates, and end-to-end carrier workflows.

I just remember her and the team just walking me through and it was like, this is real. Like, I actually can see this working and they're showing me the dashboards and they're like, you didn't even think. You didn't ask us to do this, but we did this anyway. And we hope you like it. And I'm watching like, Holy smokes, this is even better than what I thought.
