Where Durigo is going, and why in this order.

The roadmap

Each phase removes a specific risk before the next one begins. A community-data product is worthless if the data is not fresh and trusted, so the core loop has to work before everything else is built on top of it.

1. 1
   Phase 1

   The Foundation

   This is the product that is live in beta today, and it is already two-sided. On the community side, a working map of points of sale carries check-ins, reviews, and clear freshness signals. On the seller side, owners can claim and run their own listing. Check-ins and reviews are kept separate on purpose: a check-in is objective, what is in stock, at what price, at what ripeness, right now, while a review is subjective, how the fruit tasted. That separation keeps the live data clean. Underneath, freshness is computed intelligently, decaying over time at a rate tuned to ripeness so the map reflects what is actually there now.

   • Interactive map with markers that reflect freshness and activity
   • Seller pages with current varieties, prices, ripeness, and recent activity
   • Low-friction check-in and review flow, partial data accepted
   • Seller claim and a manage-store dashboard: hours, status, photos, varieties, prices
   • Curated durian variety catalog with regional names
   • Suggest-an-edit, report-a-problem, and owner review of community suggestions
   • Time-decayed freshness and stock-level aggregation tuned to ripeness
   • Multilingual by default, with background auto-translation
2. 2
   Phase 2

   Signal vs. Noise

   Phase 1 already lets people report problems and suggest fixes. Phase 2 turns that into a system that holds up as the platform grows, without leaning on constant manual moderation. Open community data invites bad data, through honest mistakes, stale entries, or deliberate abuse. Every contributor earns a reputation, and contributions are weighted by it, so reliable users carry more signal and spam carries less. On the seller side, verification tiers and a clear path for resolving contested claims keep ownership honest.

   • Per-user trust and reputation scoring
   • Reputation-weighted contributions
   • Time-decay scoring so stale data is clearly marked
   • Seller verification tiers and dispute resolution for contested claims
   • Expanded reporting, rate limits, and anti-abuse protections
3. 3
   Phase 3

   Open the Doors

   With a trusted, two-sided product proven in beta, Phase 3 opens Durigo to everyone, and gives the people who arrive a reason to keep coming back. The headline is the return loop: users follow sellers and wishlist the varieties they are chasing, then get alerted the moment those varieties appear nearby. Better data drives better alerts, which drive more engagement and more data, a retention flywheel that compounds as the community grows. Around that, this phase does the work that makes a public launch land: refined onboarding, a professional app store presence, and the privacy and data-protection foundations a community platform is expected to meet.

   • Wishlist and notify-me-when-nearby alerts, plus follow-a-seller
   • Push notifications and an in-app notification center
   • Refined onboarding for both consumers and sellers
   • App store listings and assets for iOS and Android
   • Privacy, terms, and regional data-protection foundations
   • Entitlement infrastructure that separates payment from access
4. 4
   Phase 4

   The Platform

   With a proven, trusted, launched product, Durigo becomes a platform. This phase introduces subscriptions, deeper community surfaces, seller analytics, and the durian wiki. Wishlist and availability alerts, introduced in Phase 3, keep deepening here as the data improves. The variety catalog and wiki are long-term assets: they get more valuable as the community grows, and they are hard to replicate quickly.

   • Consumer Pro and Seller Pro subscription tiers
   • Community discussions, seasonal threads, and meetup coordination
   • Seller demand heatmaps and variety interest analytics
   • QR-based seller offers and proximity-driven promotions
   • Community-contributed durian wiki with moderation

Why trust is the moat

Durigo’s value rests entirely on whether its data can be trusted. Freshness, trust, and moderation are core product principles, not afterthoughts. Three ideas hold it together: freshness over perfection, the separation of objective check-ins from subjective reviews, and reputation-weighted contributions that fade on their own through time-decay.

The map is easy to build. A map people trust enough to act on is not. That trust is the moat, and the roadmap is sequenced to earn it before anything is built on top of it.
