About the project
Dynamic Packaging Revenue Calculator
This project involved the independent development of a dynamic packaging revenue calculator for Axabee's brand Resabee Travel Tech. The goal was to quickly move from an idea to a testable solution, bypassing traditional development barriers and validating the concept efficiently.
The tool was later used by the marketing and sales teams to generate leads for the dynamic packaging service.
Results
reduced development time compared to traditional methods
key value propositions validated with initial stakeholders
Business goals
What we set out to achieve
Make a simple app without the engineering team
The primary goal was to demonstrate that a functional application could be developed independently, bypassing the typical resource allocation and coordination challenges associated with engineering teams.
Generate leads and improve engagement
The calculator was intended to serve as a valuable tool that could attract potential customers and foster greater interaction with the business's offerings.
Test value proposition and business case
By creating a tangible prototype, the project aimed to quickly assess the viability and appeal of the underlying business idea and its proposed value to users.
Minimize the risk of full-scale development
Developing a lightweight, functional app that allowed for early validation of the concept, significantly reducing the financial and time risks associated with a full-scale development effort.
Validate the market need
The project aimed to confirm whether there was a genuine demand or need in the market for such a tool.
the process
How we built it?
AI tool experimentation
The journey began with exploring AI platforms like Claude and Lovable to assist with the calculator's logic and user interface. While these tools offered some assistance, they struggled with the specific, nuanced calculations required for the revenue model. This phase was crucial in understanding the limitations of current AI for this particular task.
V0 prototype development
Based on the insights gained from the AI tool trials, the decision was made to build the first functional version (v0) by combining personal coding knowledge with a clear understanding of the AI tools' strengths and weaknesses.
Concept validation
The completed MVP was then published, allowing for real-world testing and validation of the core concept and user flow with a broader audience.

NEXT STEP
What comes next
Based on the successful publication and real-world validation of this MVP, the next steps involve leveraging the insights gained from live usage to inform future development. This could include expanding features, integrating with other systems, or scaling the application further based on user feedback and business needs.
