1. Problem Statement
The main problem is that small and medium businesses in Delhi (and similar regions) face difficulties in managing logistics and workflows.
Current tools are either too complex, not secure enough, or not tailored for local businesses.
Our project will:
- Provide a simple and secure way to manage logistics and daily business tasks.
- Build a system where frontend, backend, and database work smoothly together.
- Give teams a better experience with real-time updates and a clean interface.
2. Project Objectives
- Objective 1: Build a user-friendly dashboard for logistics and workflow management.
- Objective 2: Use PostgreSQL for structured and secure data storage.
- Objective 3: Implement strong security so that private information is safe.
- Objective 4: Ensure real-time syncing between frontend, backend, and database.
- Objective 5: Create a scalable solution that can be used by MSMEs and startups.
3. Proposed Approach
Our project will focus on building a secure and easy-to-use platform with three main parts:
3.1 Frontend
- React + Tailwind + ShadCN for modern UI.
- Simple dashboard for managing workflows, tasks, and logistics.
- Mobile-friendly design.
3.2 Backend
- Node.js + Express for API handling.
- Authentication and session handling for security.
- Data validation and error handling.
3.3 Database
- PostgreSQL with pgAdmin for structured storage.
- All sensitive data encrypted.
- No private user info exposed in frontend inspection.
4. Why Telegram Mini App
We used Telegram Mini App because it provides a lightweight, familiar, and accessible interface for users.
- Businesses donβt need to download another application.
- Easy onboarding since Telegram is already widely used.
- Real-time interaction and secure integration with our backend.
π Watch our demo video to see how businesses can manage logistics and workflows seamlessly with Kaizen Flow.
5. Security Measures
- User details not visible from Inspect or DevTools.
- API routes secured with authentication and middleware.
- Data validation before database storage.
- Follows industry-standard security practices (encryption, hashed passwords, etc.).
6. What People Can Use It For
- MSMEs and startups β manage logistics easily.
- Business owners β track operations and workflows in real time.
- Teams β collaborate using a clean interface.
- Data-driven companies β use PostgreSQL data for insights and decision-making.
6.1 Frontend Development
- Build UI using React, TailwindCSS, and ShadCN.
- Add features like task boards, profile management, and workflow tracking.
6.2 Backend Development
- Create secure APIs using Node.js + Express.
- Connect backend with PostgreSQL database.
- Add authentication and session management.
6.3 Database Design
- PostgreSQL schema to manage users, tasks, and workflows.
- Proper indexing for speed.
- Regular backups and data safety.
6.4 Integration
- Connect frontend, backend, and database.
- Test full flow (login β dashboard β task update β database).
- Deploy system on cloud for live access.
7. Deliverables / Achievements
- UI Mockups (screenshots of the product design).

-
Kaizen Flow has already been adopted by 20 users via our Telegram Mini App, validating its usefulness in real scenarios.
8. Future Scope
- AI-powered workflow suggestions.
- On-chain transparency for logistics.
- Mobile-first app version for field workers.
Challenges we ran into
Challenges I Ran Into
-
Database Setup
At first, setting up PostgreSQL locally was a challenge since not everyone on the team had it installed.
π We solved it by creating a shared cloud-hosted instance and using pgAdmin so everyone could access the same database smoothly. -
Security Flaws
Initially, sensitive data like user identifiers were visible through browser inspect tools.
π We fixed this by implementing backend-only data handling, API authentication, and ensuring that no private data was ever exposed in the frontend. -
Time Constraints
Since this was a hackathon build, time was super tight.
π We overcame it by dividing tasks into clear parts (frontend, backend, database, integration) and working together on Discord, which kept us in sync.
