Case Study: Beri Gifts launches a mobile wishlist app on iOS and Android with GMI

Beri launches a mobile wishlist app in 2 weeks with GMI

The customer, Beri, needed to build a mobile wishlist app that could import products from various online stores, specifically Amazon. However, a major technical challenge was that the official Amazon API did not provide the required data, creating significant integration risk for their project. The vendor, GMI, was engaged to help overcome this obstacle.

GMI first de-risked the project by conducting a Product Design Workshop and then running a two-week proof of concept to test an Amazon scraper. After the PoC successfully confirmed the data could be collected reliably, GMI proceeded with a five-sprint MVP development cycle using React Native. The vendor released the app on both iOS and Android, navigating a specific challenge from Apple during the review process. The successful outcome was an MVP delivered on schedule and released on both major app stores.
