Case Study

MITANO

A full courier platform for an electric same-day delivery service in Tbilisi: merchant portal and API, dispatch and admin, a courier app and live tracking for recipients

  1. Let online stores create, price and track deliveries themselves — in the portal or straight from their own site through the API
  2. Run pickups, the warehouse, courier routes and cash on delivery from one admin panel
  3. Show every recipient where their parcel is, live, without a call to the courier

Overview

What it had to solve

A courier business lives or dies on coordination: orders from dozens of shops, morning pickups, a warehouse, routes, cash on delivery and customers asking where their parcel is. Off-the-shelf tools cover one piece each. MITANO needed one platform where every order moves through the same states from the shop to the doorstep, every party sees the part that concerns them, and nothing depends on a phone call.

Modules

What was built

Merchant Portal and Public API

Shops send parcels the way that suits them.

  • A three-step order form with a live price as the shop types, plus a dashboard of active and delivered orders and cash on delivery owed
  • A Public API with API keys, scopes and idempotent requests, and signed webhooks for every status change
  • Thermal and A4 shipping labels with barcode and QR, and team accounts for each shop

Dispatch, Warehouse and Finance

The courier's day runs from one admin panel.

  • Pickup and delivery routes planned automatically with a route optimiser, then approved by a dispatcher
  • Warehouse scans in and out, with a check that parcels are loaded in the right order for the route
  • Cash-on-delivery settlements, invoices and courier cash handover, with PDF statements and a full audit log

Courier App and Live Tracking

The last mile is visible to everyone who needs it.

  • A phone app for couriers: today's pickups and deliveries, call and navigate, scan parcels, and prove delivery with a code, photo or signature
  • Cash or card at the door, with GPS from the courier's phone or a vehicle tracker on the live map
  • A public tracking page with the parcel's timeline and position, and SMS and WhatsApp updates in Georgian or English
