The problem

An executive presentation was headed to a Las Vegas ballroom with unreliable wifi, three different audiences with different clearance levels, and data that changed until the night before.

Slides made of screenshots go stale; slides made of software don't.

What we built

  • Host-based routing so the survey audience and the boardroom audience can never cross into each other's version of the truth.
  • Real auth — hashed credentials, signed sessions, three roles — on what looks like a slide deck.
  • A data pipeline feeding a live availability map of the whole country, rendered as a slide.
  • Chart palettes validated for color-vision deficiency, print handouts, and a fully offline fallback — the show goes on with zero bars.
