Rating Mobile App, Startup
Glowry sought to capture the Saudi Arabian market by creating a mobile-first platform that merges automated life-logging with community-driven discovery. The challenge was to build an application that was both technically robust enough for passive location tracking without significant battery drain, and intuitive enough to foster a vibrant, engaged user community.
We architected and delivered ‘Glowry,’ an end-to-end mobile solution for iOS and Android. The platform features an advanced geo-fencing and tracking module for automated activity logging. We integrated this with a comprehensive social and content management system, allowing users to check in, post reviews and tips, and follow friends’ activities. To drive discovery, we developed a custom recommendation algorithm and a gamification layer to incentivize user participation and content creation, laying the foundation for Saudi Arabia’s largest location-based community.
Built around a low-power, background geo-logging service that feeds a scalable backend for its social graph, recommendation engine, and user-generated content APIs.
