Problem: Kickstarter et al founders not communicating shipping information. I'm looking at you Antsy Labs!
Project: Crowdsourced backer shipping data. A backer can share their order date, delivery date, and optionally their order number. This allows other backers to see when (if!) orders are being shipped and delivered. We can then estimate when backers should get their order.
Audience: Kickstarter and Indiegogo backers.
Stack: Rails 5 API on Heroku+PostgreSQL, S3 hosted React client.
For Kickstarter I'm accepting shipping data from founders but other than that it's going to all be crowdsourced. It will be tricky to keep the data reliable. If anyone has ideas I'd love to hear them.
I'll add the Tesla when we launch. Should be fun to see what happens!
