Mental Health & Recovery App Development (EFA)

Вебмедиа

We transformed a traditional 12-week psychological recovery program into EFA (Excuse for Abuse), a gamified digital ecosystem. As the technical partner, we delivered a cross-platform MVP (Web and Mobile) that uses AI and interactive "Recovery Quests" to support individuals escaping abusive relationships. Challenges The client’s main hurdle was "engagement fatigue"—most people quit traditional therapy because reading 12 weeks of PDFs feels like studying a microwave manual. They needed a way to make heavy psychological content digestible and personalized. As developers, our challenges were more "under the hood": The Content Mountain: We had to architect a database for over 6,000 questions and branch them into 18 distinct storylines based on the user's gender and age. The Translation Trap: Hiring translators for multiple languages would have drained the startup’s budget before launch. Legal Minefields: Since the startup is US-based, we had to ensure the architecture was fortified to meet both GDPR and California’s CCPA standards—because in mental health, a data leak is a disaster, not just a bug. Solution We didn't just build an app; we built a "Hero’s Journey" powered by code: AI-Driven Localization: We integrated the OpenAI API to translate content on the fly. To keep costs low and speed high, we built a server-side caching system that stores translations after the first request. Interactive Recovery Quests: We implemented a logic engine that funnels users into one of 18 quest lines after a deep onboarding quiz. Users earn points and achievements instead of just "completing lessons." Emotional UI/UX: We designed and animated 6 character mascots using 2D sprite animation. These guides react to user progress, making the recovery process feel less like a lonely struggle and more like a supported mission. Smart Monetization: We developed a split model—subscription-based access for Web users and an "Ad-to-Play" mechanic for Mobile, where users watch two interactive clips to unlock their daily quest for free. Full Control: We delivered a custom Admin Panel that allows the client to add questions, manage the blog, and track financial growth without ever touching a line of code. Impact The result is a scalable, legally compliant MVP that turned a static educational course into a living product. By automating translations via AI, we saved the client thousands of dollars in operational costs. EFA now has a platform where the "path to healing" is as engaging as a mobile game, backed by a microservices architecture ready to handle thousands of users across the US and Europe.

Ninja Case Study: Design and E-commerce Development

Вебмедиа

1. About the Project Ninja, a fast-growing home appliance brand, faced a classic challenge: the old website significantly hampered project scalability. The platform, built on a typical template, couldn't handle peak loads, prevented the quick integration of new markets, and lacked content flexibility. The client required architecture ready for exponential growth. 2. The Challenge (Inspirational) To build a modular e-commerce platform from the ground up. Goal: ensure unlimited scalability, maximize conversion (turning every visitor into a buyer), and equip the client with a tool for rapid entry into new markets. 3. The Solution (Detailed and Specific) Custom Architecture (Against Templates): Example: Instead of a standard CMS base, we created a proprietary modular system based on high-performance frameworks. This allowed us to handle up to 5,000 concurrent users without crashing (the old site collapsed at 800). Impact: We eliminated the "technical ceiling" and the need for costly migration down the line. Audience Retention (Against "Out-of-Stock"): Example: We implemented a "Notify Me When Available" system integrated with the CRM and warehouse inventory. If an item is sold out, the customer leaves an email and gets a personalized notification when it’s back in stock. Impact: We brought back 20% of sales traffic that was previously considered lost. Optimized UX (Against "Pretty" Design): Example: We reduced the checkout process to two clicks for returning users. The mobile version now loads in 1.8 seconds. Impact: We cut the abandoned cart rate by 15% in the first month. Preparedness for Scale (Humorous): Example: Adding a new language or currency in the admin panel isn't "a month of programming pain and tears"—it's a simple toggle switch. Impact: The ability to launch in a neighboring country with full site functionality in 4 hours, using the existing architecture. 4. The Results Launch of a modular architecture ready for 5,000 concurrent users. Projected 15% reduction in abandoned carts. Full readiness for expansion into new markets.
