Problem

Businesses needing aerial photography had no centralized marketplace to find, vet, and book drone operators — discovery relied on fragmented social groups, word of mouth, and zero trust signals.

Solution

Built a MERN stack platform connecting drone owners with clients, featuring listings, a booking and scheduling system, secure JWT authentication, and a rating system — delivered as a hackathon submission.

Achievement

Full booking & scheduling system shipped within hackathon timeframe
JWT auth with role-based access for owners and clients
MongoDB for flexible drone listings
Rating and review system for trust signals
