High — Next-Gen Retail Investment Platform
Project brief
Viral waitlist engine, founder passes, and early-access architecture for a modern stock market platform.
Overview
High is reinventing retail stock trading for a new generation of digital-native investors, combining clean social sentiment feeds, gamified portfolio insights, and zero-commission order routing.
Prior to regulatory app store rollout, High required an iconic web presence that could build massive cultural momentum, sell exclusive limited-edition Founders Tickets, and orchestrate a gamified referral waitlist.
Gamified waitlist & founders pass architecture
Engineered a high-throughput waitlist platform powered by Supabase and Redis sorted sets, allowing users to move up the queue in real-time by inviting friends and completing market literacy micro-challenges.
Designed high-fidelity 3D metallic digital Founders Passes with interactive holographic gyro tilt effects, giving holders guaranteed day-one trading perks, zero platform fees, and VIP community access.
Interactive holographic Founders Pass and real-time waitlist position tracker
Real-time viral loops & anti-fraud verification
Implemented strict email deliverability checks, disposable domain blocking, and fingerprinting heuristics to prevent waitlist gaming and bot scraping.
Built personalized dynamic share cards with automated OpenGraph image generation, displaying each user live waitlist rank when shared across social channels.
Outcome
Surpassed 120,000 registered investors in less than 30 days, achieving a viral referral coefficient of 1.8 and establishing High as one of the most anticipated consumer fintech launches of the year.
Technologies
Built with modern, production-grade tools focused on long-term maintainability, security, and sub-second performance.
