The problem
Customer and operations dashboards with backend services for parcel lifecycles, tracking events and notifications, built for high-throughput transactional workflows.
Small teams stitch together disconnected tools for websites, customer communication, content, analytics and operations, while generic AI assistants lack safe access to business context and actions.
Integrated the installer management system into Multichoice's payment process so installers are paid accurately and on time.
