GymGoer is what a marketplace looks like when it removes the only thing stopping people from showing up. The Challenge: Friction Was the Product Traditional gyms required long-term contracts, sign-up fees, and single-location commitment. Millions of Australians wanted flexible, pay-as-you-go access and had nowhere to go. Meanwhile, gyms had unused off-peak capacity and no channel to monetise it. Techne's Role: Strategic Engineering Partner Techne architected GymGoer as a two-sided marketplace connecting flexible gym-goers with partner venues across Melbourne. Key Technical Deliverables Consumer App: iOS app with search, booking, and QR-scan entry across 20+ Melbourne partner gyms.

The average wait for specialist support is two to three months. The Challenge: Proactive Wellbeing at Scale Ash and Dean, co-founders of Mynd, identified a gap the system was not built to fill. Traditional EAP programs go unused by more than 95% of eligible employees. Mynd was built to change that: a personalised, mobile-first wellbeing platform for everyday moments, not just crisis ones. Techne's Role: Strategic Engineering Partner Techne partnered with Ash and Dean to architect Mynd from the ground up. A cross-platform mobile application on iOS and Android, a personalisation engine adapting to each user's mood and engagement patterns, and a privacy-first B2B analytics dashboard for HR teams.

The Impact Using our Zero-Debt Engineering approach, Techne ensured Mynd could scale from consumer launch to enterprise deployment. The platform now supports organisations including Cobild, CorePlus and Cassette, addressing the $39B cost of mental ill-health in Australian workplaces every year. #MentalHealthApp #AppDevelopment #MobileApp #ZeroDebtEngineering #HealthTech #StartupEngineering ### Aquatap: Plumbing & Construction Multi-Role App Managing 80 people across multiple live builds means materials get lost, costs blow out, and the gap between warehouse and worksite becomes a liability. The Challenge: Coordination at Construction Scale The Aquatap leadership team identified a structural problem: as the business scaled across Melbourne and Geelong, no single system could connect warehouse staff, on-site plumbers, team leaders, and management in real time. Jobs were moving faster than the records that tracked them. Techne's Role: Strategic Engineering Partner Techne partnered with Aquatap to architect a bespoke, multi-role mobile app ecosystem for Melbourne's construction and trades sector. Separate, role-specific applications connect warehouse staff, plumbers, team leaders, and management across every active project. From material procurement through to task completion, every record stays current and every team stays aligned. No spreadsheets. No chasing updates. The Impact Using our Zero-Debt Engineering approach, Techne ensured the platform could support Aquatap's operations across Melbourne and Geelong without performance trade-offs. Materials, costs, and labour are now tracked end to end across every build. #AppDevelopment #MobileApp #ZeroDebtEngineering #ConstructionTech #TechPartner #StartupEngineering ### My Pet Health: Pet Wellness App IoT Tracker Most pet owners know their vet's phone number. Few can recall their dog's last vaccination date, current prescriptions, and real-time location without checking three different places. The Challenge: Fragmented Pet Care The My Pet Health team identified a gap in how Australian pet owners manage their animal's health. Medical records, diet logs, prescription reminders, and GPS data existed across paper files, separate apps, and memory. There was no single system connecting all of it. Techne's Role: Strategic Engineering Partner Techne partnered with My Pet Health to architect a comprehensive iOS and Android platform at the intersection of healthtech app development and consumer pet care. The app integrates GPS tracking via smart collar sync, health monitoring across heart rate and activity data, structured diet and prescription management, and a complete digital health record per pet profile. No paperwork. No scattered records. The Impact Using our Zero-Debt Engineering approach, Techne built My Pet Health to scale from digital health records to full IoT hardware integration. The platform is architected to grow with My Pet Health's expanding product ecosystem, including the upcoming V3 GPS Collar. ### CoLDAp: Construction Project Management App Getting paid for work completed in construction requires more than doing the work. It requires being able to prove it. The Challenge: Payment Disputes in Large-Scale Construction The CoLDAP team identified a systemic gap: contractors completing significant work but lacking structured, time-stamped documentation to substantiate claims, recover variations, and defend against payment disputes. Contract status, budgets, actual costs, and scope changes were tracked in silos. Often not recorded at all. Techne's Role: Strategic Engineering Partner Techne partnered with CoLDAP to architect a scalable SaaS platform for large-scale construction project management. The app captures contract milestones, budget, actual costs, and project variations in real time, generating defensible time-stamped records and instant Letters of Claim. Engineered for the full financial and contractual lifecycle of enterprise construction projects. No scattered records. No manual evidence gathering. The Impact Using our technical experience, Techne built CoLDAP to grow from its core documentation engine into a full Construction Liability Defence and Automation Platform, protecting contractor payments across every project stage. #AppDevelopment #ConstructionTech #SaaSDevelopment #ZeroDebtEngineering #TechPartner #StartupEngineering ### Biviano Fresh At the start of Covid, once we new that it was infact a virus which will impact all of us in unpredented ways. Our development team went to work with the Biviano Family who are pronmonent in the fresh veg and fruit space in Melbourne. Within 3 months we had designed, and developed Biviano Fresh mobile app platform. There were many sleepless nights and overtime during weekends but it was all worth it when our clients turned over $1,000,000 AUD within the first 6 month of launch.  Working with the Biviano family was a learning curve. The amount of knowledge in the fresh fruit and veg sector, the experience of running grocery store business, it was quite mind opening to be honest.  We took what we learnt and translated it into tech, it truely transformed a strugling business during covid lockdowns to a profit making revenue machine. Work for Biviano Fresh is ongoing, many updates have been implemented since the launch of the inital version. We're eager to see where this project leads to in the next 5 years with the ability to integrate chat bots and other AI features.   ### Musivo: Private Social Platform for Fashion Every overcrowded platform creates the same opportunity: the private alternative. Musivo is what Techne built when a founder asked us to architect exclusivity. The Challenge: The Exclusivity Paradox on Public Platforms Public social platforms prioritise reach over relevance. For fashion and luxury brands, being on the same platform as everyone else undermines the very exclusivity they embody. The cost is lost control over who sees your content, what surrounds it, and who you are seen alongside. Techne's Role: Strategic Engineering Partner Techne partnered with the Musivo team to architect a private, invite-only social platform for fashion, luxury, and lifestyle communities. Key Technical Deliverables Access Control Architecture: Invite-only and subscription-gated membership system ensuring complete community privacy. Private Content Layer: Closed community sharing with member-controlled visibility across posts and conversations. Brand and Community Profiles: Purpose-built profiles for members, iconic brands, and standout venues. No algorithm deciding who sees what. No public-facing content. The ResultTechne built Musivo as a production-ready, exclusive social platform for fashion, luxury, and lifestyle communities. Access is the product, not a privacy setting. #AppDevelopment #MobileApp #ZeroDebtEngineering #SocialTech #LuxuryTech #StartupEngineering ### Feed The Wolf Feed The Wolf is a unique, gamified approach to habit-building, inspired by the story of the “two wolves” often told in self-help and psychological circles. The app helps users develop and strengthen positive habits while minimizing negative ones by visualizing these habits as wolves. Each habit influences the growth of two wolf factions—one representing positive habits (the "good wolf") and the other representing negative habits (the "bad wolf"). With every good habit performed, the "good wolf" grows stronger, and with every bad habit indulged, the "bad wolf" becomes more powerful. This interactive experience motivates users to "feed" the right wolf each day. ### Slide Slide App is a dedicated mobile apps solution for the entertainment and nightlife industry.  The main purpose of Slide App is to connect Venues to the party-goers, digitally. The traditional way of arranging bookings with Venues, finding out what is happening around you, utilizing guestlists, checking in to the Venue, has always been inefficient.  A key technology that has not been implemented in the industry and has been utilized by Slide App is the use of dynamic QR codes. Improving efficiency through the use of technology, and adding the ability for Venues to reduce labour, up-sale, and cross-promote its events and it as a Venue has been effectively packaged by Slide App through the use of native iOS and Android client mobile apps. HTML web interface, and HTML5 web interface for the Venue Administrators, HTML web interface for the Slide App Administrators.  The backend runs on Java utilizing the Vue.js framework and integrated with Stripe Payments, Mail Chimp, and SMS Broadcast API. No expense was spared on this project. ### Basly Basly simplifies fare tax declarations for Australian online car-hailing drivers.

Very little digitization has seen the motorsport industry. Working together with Charity Drive Days we identified that areas such as promoting new events, managing members, members credentials, vehicle information,  signing of documents, are all areas which take enormous amounts of time for event Administrators both before, during and after the event. The platform that has been developed solves all these problems surrounding efficiency, reducing labour, and maximising sales to members. Key features include digital signature, social sharing, bulk push notification, bulk SMS notification, searchable and customisable database, bulk export, Stripe Payments API integration, and Google APIs integration. ### Fangsong Fangsong is a China and Hong Kong exclusive platform for sharing and streaming meditation and mindfulness sound and videos.
