Inspiration

After looking into the car rental scene in Morocco and Africa, we found that many companies are still using Excel or paper to manage their fleets. These old methods are not safe, waste a lot of time, and can cost businesses more than they realize.

What It Does

Wanderlust Business helps rental companies with:

  • Centralized Fleet Management: Keep track of vehicles and schedule maintenance in real-time.
    • Health Alerts: Get automatic reminders for inspections and servicing.
  • Easy Data Import: You can bring in Excel data with a single click (First use case of AI), with smart features like:
    • Map fields to database even names are not the same
    • Multi-language support
    • Normalizing column names
  • Revenue Boost: Insights powered by AI to help increase profits and cut costs (This is the part that we will use for ROI)
  • (GPS tracking is in the pipeline for after the MVP).

How We Built It

  • Frontend: used Angular with server-side rendering (SSR).
  • Backend: Spring Boot.
  • Database: PostgreSQL with Multi-tenant architechture.
  • Auth: Integrated Keycloak for SSO .
  • Caching: Redis .
  • AI Stack: We have Python-based data processes for ETL and analytics + Deepseek API.

Challenges We Faced

  • Parsing complex Excel relationships (like macros and nested dependencies).
  • Figuring out how we will make AI recommendations for boosting revenue .
  • integrating Keycloak with Redis.

What We’re Proud Of

  • A refined landing page ready for production.
  • The core AI engine (80% done) for transforming data.
  • APIs that perform well, responding in under 300ms at scale.
  • A solid architecture that can scale as needed (To microservices by example).

What We Learned

  • Strategies for partitioning a multi-tenant database.
  • How to implement Keycloak for enterprise logins.
  • Caching patterns in Redis for systems with high traffic.
  • Techniques for mapping data with AI assistance.
