The Challenge

The Challenge

A non-profit volunteering agency needed to manage applicants through a complex multi-step process including background checks, references, and parental approvals. The existing paper-based system couldn't scale and lacked proper access controls.

  • Paper-based application process taking weeks
  • No role-based access control for sensitive data
  • Background check workflow entirely manual
  • No visibility into pipeline status for management
The Solution

The Solution

We built a WeWeb application with Xano backend featuring role-based permissions, automated workflow stages, and a dashboard giving management full pipeline visibility.

Technical Approach

WeWeb provides the frontend with role-based views β€” applicants see their status, reviewers see pending applications, admins see the full pipeline. Xano handles authentication, data storage, and business logic. n8n automates notifications and status transitions.
