Case Study: Drop 24 builds a fleet management app in two months with Emergent

Drop 24 builds Gig Fleet in 2 months with Emergent

Drop 24, a South African motorbike logistics company, faced significant operational challenges as it scaled. The founder was managing his delivery fleet using inefficient WhatsApp groups and paper records, while quotes for a custom fleet management app from development firms came in at $200,000–$250,000. He turned to Emergent to build a solution.

Using Emergent, the founder built a comprehensive app called Gig Fleet in roughly two months. The solution provided live GPS tracking, biometric verification, maintenance logging, and route optimization, consolidating all operations into a single system. Emergent enabled Drop 24 to build a $250,000 app for a fraction of the cost and in a fraction of the time, which also generated market interest from other companies representing 15,000 riders.
