About the Client

Lasoo is an Australian online retail platform that aggregates catalogues, promotions, and product listings from leading retailers. Their goal is to help shoppers “Know Before You Go” by providing a centralised hub to compare deals, find local offers, and plan purchases, whether online or in-store.

The Challenge

Lasoo needed to modernise its digital platform to stay competitive in an increasingly mobile-first, search-driven retail environment. Key challenges included:

  • A fragmented user experience across web and mobile
  • Slow performance and technical limitations of legacy systems
  • Difficulty maintaining consistency across product feeds and promotions
  • The need for an intuitive and responsive UX to drive user engagement
  • Limited analytics visibility into user behaviour and engagement loops

They needed a complete rebuild of their mobile app and website, with speed, stability, and scalability at the core.

  • Cross-Platform Mobile App (iOS & Android). A lightning-fast app built with a modern, scalable framework, featuring catalogue browsing, product search, personalised offers, and location-aware promotions.
  • Responsive Web App. A sleek, high-performance website that mirrors the mobile experience, optimised for SEO and conversion while seamlessly integrating retailer feeds.
  • Smart Search & Navigation. Built-in intelligence to help users find what they’re looking for quickly, by retailer, product category, or location.
  • Feed Integration & Sync. Real-time syncing of promotional data from dozens of major Australian retailers, with business logic to ensure clean display and categorisation.
  • Scalable Backend. A future-proof backend architecture designed to handle high volumes of traffic, fast content updates, and detailed analytics.
