THE CHALLENGE
We Needed to Create a Mobile iOS Application First
in 3 months, to be delivered to real customers and receive feedback to be able to iterate the product and find an MMP Minimum Marketable Product.
INITIAL STATE
OUR SOLUTION
The first step in this project was to develop a prototype of the consumer application.
Requirements
Simplification
This technology stack avoids the risk of high-cost development teams and high-speed development, by keeping the requirements in skills simple.
Application
Building
For this, we built an application using React Native/Expo and a simple Firebase backend to create an initial iOS app allowing users to initiate the returns.
Prototype
Release
After the initial prototype release, we created a simple admin system using React, keeping the whole platform in Javascript/Typescript. Over time we have also released the application to Android users.
DELIVER STATE
CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
There have been multiple improvements
The first one is a Gmail integration allowing users to import purchases directly from their email. This required an audit from Google to ensure security practices in handling people's data. The audit was performed by a partner of Google in close collaboration with the melt development team and successfully passed.
Trusted by Startups Across the U.S.
We have delivered products for startups from Anchorage to New York.

Rally Chat
Melt provided exceptional services for us at RallyChat. I truly appreciated how quickly you ramped up on the project—sorting out access, setting up the tech, and adopting my kanban board seamlessly. Regular stand-ups kept communication flowing, and your use of Slack was professional and concise. The quality of work was outstanding, with excellent judgment, independent thinking, and clear communication on design decisions. Overall, an extremely professional experience—significantly better than the Globant contractors I worked with this year.
