Commercial Rental Marketplace

Anyspaces — think Airbnb for commercial spaces — had been running for six years on an incrementally-patched codebase spanning multiple tech stacks. Performance was degrading, maintenance was painful, and the UX couldn't support the features they needed to compete.

The brief was clear: tear it down and rebuild from scratch. A modern stack, clean architecture, and a platform that could scale to thousands of active listings across warehouses, offices, pop-up retail, and event venues nationwide.

A team of eight over ten months. The backend runs NestJS microservices on AWS Fargate with PostgreSQL managing the complex data model across spaces, pricing tiers, availability, and booking workflows. Serverless functions handle background jobs — notifications, search indexing, and analytics.

The Angular frontend supports two distinct journeys: landlords listing and managing properties, and tenants searching via map discovery, comparing spaces, and booking with instant quotes. Stripe drives the full payment lifecycle — deposits through recurring billing — with automated invoicing synced to Xero.
