Overview

[BORRADOR v1 — pendiente de revisión] Bascout is a B2B marketplace built to serve the HORECA channel in Switzerland, connecting food and beverage suppliers with buyers across the industry. The platform centralises sourcing and procurement for specialty products — wines, spirits, cured meats and other gourmet goods — replacing scattered supplier relationships with a single digital catalogue. Sellers list and manage their inventory while buyers browse, compare and order directly through the platform, which supports multiple languages to match Switzerland's diverse business landscape. The project covered the marketplace experience end to end, from vendor onboarding to product discovery, with a focus on making a traditionally relationship-driven trade — Swiss HORECA sourcing — work smoothly online.

Scouting the Future of Talent

Bascout isn't just a platform; it's a bridge between emerging talent and professional opportunities. The main challenge was to create an interface that felt dynamic and sporty while maintaining the data density required for scouts.

We focused on:

  • Real-time Stats: Visualizing complex data simply.
  • Video Integration: Highlights embedded directly in profiles.
  • Mobile First: Scouts work from the stands, not desks.

Live Match Mode

Speed is everything. We designed a "Live Mode" optimized for one-thumb usage, allowing scouts to tag plays without taking their eyes off the field.

"The dark mode contrast was specifically calibrated for outdoor stadium lighting conditions."

Deep Dive Reports

Post-match, the data transforms into comprehensive reports. We used D3.js for interactive shot maps and performance radars that help clubs make multi-million dollar decisions.
