Case Study: Codementor achieves rapid file uploads and richer 1:1 developer support with Filestack

Codementor Provides Expert 1-to-1 Support With The Help Of Filestack

Codementor, a live 1:1 help marketplace for developers, needed a quick way to let users attach files and provide context to experts before sessions—its early platform only offered a text box and users kept requesting richer upload features. Codementor chose Filestack to provide an upload UI and file-handling capability so mentors could see images, charts, code snippets and other documents ahead of live sessions.

Using Filestack’s UI, Codementor implemented file uploads in about 1 hour of engineering time (with 2 hours of front-end work to integrate into their messaging system), even letting an intern complete the integration. The Filestack solution enabled users to upload images, charts, text and XML, improved mentor satisfaction, delivered a fast MVP with high ROI, and shortened development time compared to building a custom uploader.
