Case study: Pro-Animal Future.

Web application to organize vegan activists - project for a non-profit in Denver, CO, USA.

Services: Design (based on provided brand guidelines and wireframes), Development.

Project description.

Pro-Animal Future is a collective of voters, volunteers, and small donors building a political movement to end factory farming. They use grassroots campaigns to turn public support for animals into law.

Prior to this project the client used a combination of existing services to handle the day-to-day operations as well as management overhead task. None of these tools were tailored to their specific use case so they were missing out on some features while paying for other ones they didn't need.

Enter Stampede. This application was built from scratch based on a long list of concrete requirements. It handles signup and onboarding of new activists, hosting physical and online events, team management functionality, manual and automatic task creation, and more.

It is optimized for both mobile display to ensure quick access during physical events as well as desktop screens to ensure maximum overview and convenience for organizers to perform management tasks such as creating events, tasks, or learning resources for their teams.

Additional features are Twilio and SendGrid integrations to send bulk emails and text messages as well as a self-hosted cal.com server - this is the online meeting software which provides booking and hosting of onboarding calls for new prospects. Both member and admin documentation was provided on top.

Conclusion: Besides having a customized application they now also benefit from having all data in one place which lead to several manual processes being automated. The client is happy and the app is maintained and improved on an ongoing basis.

Client feedback.

Other developers I've worked with had strong opinions about how things should be done even when they didn't understand our needs. Marvin was a great listener, and while he would always explain what approach made the most sense to him, he'd also seek to understand my preferred approach and dig to the essence while also leaving it up to me and committing to get it done however I decided.
