Retail impact — build for real people
The retail back office is full of repetitive, error-prone tasks that steal time from merchants. 

At SynderHacks we challenge teams to design solutions that:
⏱️ Save time
Cut manual bookkeeping
⚙️ Reduce errors
Fix mismatches automatically
💵 Improve cashflow visibility
Clearer cashflow, faster insights
🔄 Simplify returns & disputes
Fewer support headaches
📈 Scale to real stores
Works for SMBs and chains
Your code should not just demo well. It should show a path 

to measurable improvements for real retailers.
