Customs Breeze
Caribbean Driver Platform
01 / Overview
Customs Breeze is a multi-user travel platform that connects international travelers with vetted local drivers across the Caribbean and Central America. It combines intelligent trip booking, real-time communication, subscription-based driver onboarding, and digital customs support into a single end-to-end experience.
02 / The Challenge
Problem
The founders needed more than a marketing site — they needed a full platform that could safely connect travelers with trusted local drivers in multiple countries. The product had to handle multi-role access (users, drivers, admins), real-time messaging, customs guidance, and paid driver subscriptions, while still feeling simple for first-time travelers landing on the site.
03 / The Approach
Solution
I designed and built a full-stack platform on Next.js 15 and Supabase with clear separation between traveler, driver, and admin flows. Stripe powers tiered driver subscriptions (Free, Standard, Premium), Supabase handles authentication and real-time chat, Sanity manages the content-driven blog and SEO sections, and React Leaflet provides interactive maps across key booking journeys.
