Case Study: Prosperity Digital Marketplace launches Prosperi-Key nonprofit marketplace in 6 weeks with Strapi

How AE Studio created a nonprofit marketplace in less than two months

Prosperity Digital Marketplace engaged AE Studio to build Prosperi-Key, a marketplace that connects households living paycheck to paycheck with people and organizations that can help. The challenge was to deliver an investor-ready proof-of-concept fast while supporting complex, hierarchical regional content, multi-tenant access, and granular admin roles. AE Studio chose Strapi (Bronze Enterprise Edition) as the CMS, pairing it with Next.js, MongoDB, and Heroku to meet the client’s customization and content-management needs.

Using Strapi’s relationship fields, role-based permissions, and custom roles, AE Studio implemented a multi-tenant admin model, conditional content rendering, and two front-end user types to manage offers, partners, and members. The platform went from zero to production in about six weeks, supports 500+ concurrent users in tests, uses four custom Strapi roles for dashboard access, and is projected to scale to 100,000 users in its first year—demonstrating Strapi’s speed and scalability in delivering the MVP.
