Challenges and objectives
Navigating Complex Investor-Business Dynamics
Investors-business relations are a sensitive and complex matter that needs to be approached with extra caution and understanding of core processes. Thus, we had to do our due diligence before developing YouCapital.
End-to-End Product Development
Our team undertook the development of both Android and iOS applications from scratch and the admin panel. Business analysis and thorough research of the niche was the cornerstone of our approach that helped to ensure relevance and boost the business value of the end product.
Building a Secure and Scalable Architecture
Kindgeek developers had to work hard to build an architecture that would be reliable and meet the highest security standards.
Designing a Seamless User Experience
Another challenge was to craft a compelling, intuitive design and ensure that the flow of the application remained seamless despite the complex inner architecture.
Integrating Payment and Third-Party Services
We had to implement a payment integration and several other third parties to deliver a unique value proposition.
Ensuring High-Quality Standards Through Continuous Testing
On top of that, we focused on making frequent and thorough quality analysis to make sure the application is impeccable and devoid of bugs.
Results of the project
YouCapital is a smart, easy-to-use application with a neat design.
With YouCapital, the investment process is streamlined and straightforward. To get started, a user looking for funding can easily create a project and specify the amount of money required. Meanwhile, investors can apply their investment criteria and search for projects in any location.
Using YouCapital's sophisticated algorithm, the app will match investors and businesses that meet the user's criteria. Once matched, investors and entrepreneurs can communicate and discuss the details of the deal via a secure messaging channel.
It's worth noting that YouCapital is completely free for investors, and businesses can create their first project for free as well. With its user-friendly interface and intuitive design, YouCapital is an essential tool for anyone looking to invest in promising ventures or start their own business.
