Marketplaces built around the money flow and trust between strangers — the parts that cannot be retrofitted cleanly.
Four areas where this work is won or lost.
Verification and profiles that build trust without turning sign-up into an obstacle course.
Split payments, commission, escrow, refunds and seller payouts modelled before the storefront.
Discovery that works at your actual inventory size, and improves as data accumulates.
Reviews, disputes and moderation tooling so quality does not decay as supply grows.
A short loop with a written result at every step.
One category, one geography, one side to win first — the marketplace cold-start problem is solved by narrowing.
Payments, commission and payouts first, because they are what cannot change later.
Supply seeded manually, matching and trust features tuned on real transactions.
Chosen for your product, not for our habit.
Tell us the category and the city. We will plan the narrow first version, not the full platform.
