About
We built a robust digital platform for Shiplink, a brokerage connecting charterers with vessel owners. Key features include a custom chat system, freight and routing calculator, and tools that digitize complex shipping operations. Despite tight deadlines and coordination with the client’s in-house backend team, we delivered a seamless, high-performing platform offering a seamless online experience and improving Shiplink's business operations.
Challenge, approach, and impact
Challenge
We started our collaboration by creating a UI/UX design for a complex platform that was intended to cover all of Shiplink's activities within brokerage services. Once the design was ready, our client decided to proceed with the OTAKOYI development team to implement the platform frontend and the company's public website. With an in-house backend team, our client required a personalized approach to ensure smooth cooperation between the two teams.
The client's input
The client needed a complex platform UI/UX design, a public website with CMS, and frontend development to integrate with their in-house backend team—all within tight deadlines.
