adilas_flyhi_demo_sept_2021.mp4   Video 9/15/2021 This is an hour long recording of the original Euflora and Flyhi demo with the backend adilas team. The Flyhi guys have spent over two years doing a mobile first app that had a full online ordering feature, deliver, full compliance, and all the way out to invoicing, customer management, and document management - all using the adilas API sockets and adilas backend database as the backbone of the mobile app. They did a great job and it shows what is possible by mixing some of the pieces that already exist. I was very impressed.
br />The recording is about an hour long, but the first 15 minutes or so show the new app. The rest of it was the two teams chatting back and forth about ideas, options, and little tid bits.


Notes:

On a Zoom meeting with Euflora and FlyHi to see a live demo of what they have been working on. I was quite impressed. It was a great demo and they have really done their homework. It gets a big thumbs up from me and the adilas side of things. Here are some of my scribbled notes while I was watching:

- Nice, simple, and pretty opening interface. The backend is fully tied to adilas.biz and is run over backend API sockets. Basically, FlyHi is the customer or patient frontend and adilas is the database backend. All done over API sockets and different connections. I was impressed.

- As an app, it was definitely set to mobile first - nice looking - simple screens - full shopping and delivery app.

- Lots of turn on/off settings and features from the backend side of the app - open/closed, availability of items, filters, etc.

- Full cart, full delivery, full dispatch, and fulfilment through the dispatch process - very mobile friendly for customers, drivers, dispatchers, fulfilment persons, and owners.

- I saw sections for histories, wallet balances, drag and drop assigning orders to drivers, multiple ways to approve or deny progress and service. Easy steps to follow.

- Lots of different apps interacting and quickly loading needed pieces and data connections. Lots of app to adilas interactions (backend API sockets and endpoints).

- Uploading images, documents, building manifests on the fly, back and forth text messages, etc. Great tech and great use of that tech.

- Tons of moving pieces and endpoints being used. From end to end - full circle from start to finish - looked good!

- Fully automated and fully paperless

- As a fun side note, they are using tons of custom parent attributes for their items to run the whole process. Anything special that they need, they are just adding using existing tools and features inside of adilas. Basically, a core product with extendible data points and database fields. Pretty cool!

- As we got into the demo deeper, they are having to do some major hoop jumping and major compliance issues - lots of back and forth. They have done a great job thinking out the process.

- Eventually, they (we) would like to form some strategic partnerships to push this combo product forward. We told them that Steve Berkenkotter from adilas would need to be involved in those decisions.

- They are mixing Metrc (state tracking and compliance), FlyHi, adilas, and their mobile app to do inventory management, ecommerce, online shopping, delivery, dispatch, and compliance stuff. Cool custom mix.

- They said that they have been working on this for 2 years as a development project. It looks great! Nice step-by-step processes and screens.

- For us (adilas) - it would be nice to build a bulk parent attribute updater tool. The other request is a global product catalog to help with normalization of the all the data points and pieces. This includes vendors, photos, descriptions, weights, attributes, categories, units of measure, etc.

- Towards the end of the meeting, I was impressed with how well Cory was doing in coordinating with the client on their requests and next steps. That is awesome! I love it!

- Marisa, from the adilas team was chiming in as well. Good feedback.

- Basically, they are using the huge adilas backend as a big piece of their puzzle - that is awesome! They are building their own app and flow based on API sockets and using a mix of multiple pieces to get the custom interface, functionality, and data storage that they need. I was impressed. In Marisa's words - They are taking the adilas customization options to their own custom levels.

- One of the last topics of the meeting was dealing with how many hoops, loop, and moving pieces. As it keeps going, eventually, who is going to manage what? Lots of pieces to the puzzle.

- As a small side note, I sent Steve a text message after the demo meeting telling him that he needs to see this. Exciting to see what is possible.
