In short
Automotive products reward teams who understand the vehicle, not just the screen. We have built live auctions with bidding and PayTabs in two languages, a vehicle classifieds app with dealer inventories, a diesel tuning product where we wrote the app, the API and the microcontroller firmware, and a parts store that starts from the customer's car.

An auction app and website for cars, general goods, livestock and charity sales, with live bidding, wishlists and PayTabs payments.
Pioneer Auctions runs several auction types from one platform. Bidders follow a calendar, join live auctions, bid, keep a wishlist and pay through PayTabs, in English or Arabic. Sellers list their own items and inventory from the same app.

A tuning and calibration product for diesel trucks: a mobile app, an API and the microcontroller firmware that talks to the vehicle.
RunVSE is software and hardware together. The app gives owners guides, a Prime tier, profiles and notifications; the API handles accounts and real time updates; and the microcontroller firmware is the piece that actually talks to the truck. All three were built by the same team so they agree.

A WooCommerce store for Clocksprings Australia, a Launceston parts business: more than 4,500 clock springs, sensors, switches and ADAS parts, found by make and then model across 37 makes.
Clocksprings Australia has supplied mechanics, auto electricians, dealers and car owners since 2016. Its customers know their car, not the part number, so the store starts from the make and says on every product which models and years the part fits.

Four products across auctions, classifieds, parts and connected hardware. These are the things we would say to an auction house, a dealer platform or a parts retailer before the first sprint.
Pioneer Auctions runs four auction types from one platform: cars, general material, livestock and charity sales. Bidders follow a calendar, join live auctions, bid, keep a wishlist and pay through PayTabs, in English or Arabic with right to left built in. Sellers list their own items and inventory from the same Flutter app, and a PHP web platform carries the auction website.
Live bidding on a phone cannot stutter, so state is kept consistent between the app and the web platform, and payment settles through the provider's confirmation rather than a tap. The redesign of the auction markup gave the website the same clarity the app has.
List It gives private sellers and dealers one place to post and buyers one place to look. Ads are built in steps with the two formats a vehicle needs, filtered by the details that matter for a car, and the conversation happens in app with favourites and spam reporting rather than on a leaked phone number. Dealers get a page with every live ad from one seller.
The stack is a Flutter app, a Next.js website and Go services, chosen for the volume of listings and searches a classifieds platform has to serve. Vehicle specific filters are the difference between a buyer finding the right car and leaving.
RunVSE is a tuning and calibration product for diesel trucks, and it is three layers built by one team so they agree: microcontroller firmware that talks to the truck, a Node.js API with sockets and Firebase for accounts and real time state, and a Flutter app that gives owners guides, profiles, notifications and a Prime membership tier.
Building firmware, API and app together removed the usual gap where the hardware team and the app team blame each other for a state that does not match. For any connected vehicle product, that single team is the decision that matters most.
Clocksprings Australia supplies genuine and aftermarket clock springs, steering angle sensors and switches to mechanics, auto electricians and car owners. Nobody searches for those by part number, so the WooCommerce store shops by make and then model across 37 makes, with the models and years each part fits stated on every product and a 12 month warranty on every part.
What we build
Bidders bid live on a phone in English or Arabic and pay in app.
Buyers filter by the details that matter for a car and chat in app.
Customers go from their car to the right part in two clicks.
Firmware, API and app agree on every state because one team built them.
Bidder and seller apps work right to left from day one.
The stack fits the volume and the product, not a habit.
How it ships
The path Pioneer Auctions, List It, RunVSE and Clock Springs Australia took, from the vehicle to a release that bids, lists, tunes and sells.
