The problem

South African couples plan across fragmented directories, WhatsApp messages and opaque “price on request” listings, while many international tools don't support local multi-ceremony wedding journeys.
Centralised the customer journey and operational data, reduced manual hand-offs and set up a documented AWS foundation.
South African legal information is scattered across portals with limited keyword search, while international e-discovery platforms are often priced beyond the local market.

What was built

A Next.js and Supabase marketplace with two Kotlin / Jetpack Compose Android apps on Google Play: one for couples, one for vendors. Thuli, the AI planner, is a LangGraph supervisor coordinating 16 specialist agents.
Led architecture and hands-on engineering for an online booking platform: Python APIs and the AWS deployment architecture, integrated with Paystack, Sage Accounting, Zoho Bigin and Zoho SalesIQ.
An integrated research, e-discovery and learning platform: hybrid semantic search across more than 10,000 judgments, a precedent citation graph, structured document extraction, AI-assisted discovery and stateful research workflows.

Outcome

The marketplace runs across web and two production Android apps, giving couples structured planning tools and vendors better-qualified enquiries with date, budget and guest-count context.
Centralised the customer journey and key operational data, reduced manual hand-offs and established a documented AWS foundation for future development.
An integrated research and review platform grounded in more than 10,000 judgments, with a structured learning bank of 1,624 rubric-scored questions. The architecture supports resumable jobs, traceable sources and human review.
