B2B SaaS · Customer Communication · AI Workflows

ChatLivo

The Challenge

Businesses were handling customer conversations across multiple channels without one shared workspace or intelligent assistance. Existing options either carried high enterprise costs or lacked practical AI capabilities.

The Solution

Primocys developed ChatLivo as a unified communication platform that brings five channels into one inbox. Its AI assistant uses business websites and custom FAQs to provide answers grounded in each company’s own information, with access across web and mobile.

The Impact

50+ businesses onboarded within 30 days
Five communication channels brought into one inbox
AI responses grounded in each business’s own content

Dapke

The Challenge

Creators needed more than audience numbers from live streaming—they needed a product that could turn real-time engagement into a sustainable revenue opportunity while keeping interactions genuinely live.

The Solution

Primocys built Dapke as a cross-platform social experience with sub-2-second live-streaming latency, creator PK battles and virtual gifting designed to connect audience engagement with real revenue on iOS and Android.

The Impact

50,000+ active creators and viewers
Live streaming delivered with sub-2-second latency
3× engagement compared with the stated industry average
Cross-platform availability across iOS and Android

Consumer App · AI Storytelling · Mobile

EmoTales

The Challenge

The Solution

Primocys built EmoTales around an AI-powered storytelling experience where children select emojis and receive a personalized illustrated story in under a minute. The product also combines custom visuals, multilingual narration and multiple AI voice options.

The Impact

Built for Iteration

Launch the marketplace loop that matters most, then expand categories, regions and automation using real usage.

Growth Marketplace

Richer discovery, seller tools, commissions, payouts, messaging, reviews and reporting.

Advanced Marketplace

Multiple regions, complex fulfillment, deeper search, business accounts or substantial integrations.

Main Cost Drivers

Platforms, roles, screens, catalog complexity, matching, payments/payouts, maps, messaging, logistics, moderation and admin depth.

FAQ

Marketplace Questions

Answers stay within what can be supported without inventing screen-specific modules.

What is marketplace app development?

It is the design and engineering of a multi-sided platform connecting buyers with sellers, providers or other users. It commonly includes supply onboarding, listings, search, transactions, commissions, payouts, trust workflows and administration.

Can Primocys build a multi-vendor marketplace?

Yes. Primocys can build buyer experiences, seller/vendor tools, backend services and admin workflows. Architecture depends on catalog, transaction model, payments, fulfillment and operating regions.

Can you build a service marketplace like TaskRabbit or Thumbtack?

We can build customer/provider platforms with profiles, services, availability, booking, location, messaging, payments and administration. Existing products are functional references only; your platform is scoped around your business and brand.

Can you build a marketplace like Amazon?

We can build multi-vendor commerce software, but recreating Amazon as a business is not a realistic software scope. We recommend defining category, geography, seller model, fulfillment and differentiation first.

How do marketplace payments and seller payouts work?

The flow depends on payment provider, country and business model. It can include customer collection, platform fees, commissions, refunds and seller/provider payouts. The exact setup must follow the provider and operating jurisdictions.

Should buyers and sellers use separate apps?

Not always. Separate apps make sense when workflows differ significantly. A combined role-based app can reduce scope when users participate on both sides.

Can you take over an existing marketplace app?

Yes. We can review Figma, mobile/web code, backend APIs, data model, admin panel and integrations, then identify what to preserve, refactor or replace.

How much does marketplace app development cost?

Cost depends on platforms, roles, catalog complexity, search/matching, payments/payouts, maps, messaging, logistics, moderation, admin operations and integrations.

How long does marketplace app development take?

Timeline depends on scope. A focused MVP is materially different from a multi-region marketplace with multiple apps, advanced search, payouts, logistics and complex administration.

Do I own the marketplace source code?

Source-code ownership and repository access should be documented in the project agreement. Primocys’s current mobile-app positioning states client ownership of source code and repository; the marketplace contract should explicitly confirm the agreed terms.
