It's a communication platform for small and micro businesses (spec. emerging markets) to send invoices and orders, keep track of credits/debits, log income/expenses, trade commodities, sell online, chat with customers and suppliers.

This is interesting! How did you come up with this idea for emerging markets in particular?

Also, out of interest, what service are you using for the SMS authentication?

I am taking the learnings of okcredit, khatabook (digital ledger in India), bijak, procol (trading in India), choco, rekki (restaurant ordering from their suppliers) to what I believe is the final consequence of an integrated chat app to run small businesses.

I used MessageBird for sms notification of new messages, SendGrid for email and Firebase Auth for login.

Everything is run on Google App Engine.

Thanks for the info! Really super interesting to hear about your sources of inspiration for this is India.

I think you're onto something with a chat app UX for small businesses!
