The challenge

NOK runs a taxi service in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. They wanted their own taxi booking app in place of phone calls and street hails.

Two apps. One for riders, one for drivers.
Android and iPhone. Both apps on both stores.
Local payments. Naira fares, with card, cash and POS terminal.
Quick matching. The nearest free driver gets the ride.
One control panel. The NOK team sees every rider, driver and trip.

What we built

We built both apps in Flutter from one codebase, plus the backend, the API and the admin panel.
