01
Challenge
A social hangout coordination app rescued from an incomplete, fragile codebase — stabilised, completed, and shipped to production by Coralsoft with a flagship AI planning assistant at its core. The main delivery challenge was to give users low-friction creation and interaction without losing the feeling of a live community, while keeping AI hangout assistant, Event lifecycle, and Google Places integration consistent across the complete journey. We framed the engagement around the smallest production-worthy flow first, then expanded the scope without weakening the underlying component and data model.

How we built it
We began with the page hierarchy, content priorities, and the conversion path, then translated those decisions into reusable layout and style primitives. The team delivered AI hangout assistant, Event lifecycle, and Google Places integration in reviewable sections, checking responsive behaviour, content editing, forms, and browser edge cases before final polish. The build used Next.js 15 + React 18, Redux Toolkit + RTK Query, Tailwind CSS, and Radix UI, with the structure kept simple enough for the client team to maintain after handoff.
03
Delivery
The delivered scope brought AI hangout assistant, Event lifecycle, Google Places integration, and Push + SMS notifications into one coherent production-ready product experience. Model output, product logic, and user feedback are separated clearly, which makes the AI easier to evaluate and evolve. For Calido, the practical result is a product that communicates its value quickly while giving the team a maintainable base for continued delivery in social & community.
