StowShare, a startup aiming to become the 'Airbnb of storage', faced the challenge of creating a platform that would allow users to easily find and rent storage spaces in their vicinity at a lower cost. The founder, Tristan Bietsch, had a vision to create a company that would serve over a million people and make a significant difference in the world. However, the main obstacle was the lack of coding skills to develop a marketplace website MVP. Traditional storage units were often expensive, far away, too small, and came with contracts, making them inconvenient for many users. The challenge was to create a platform that would allow people to find storage in their area from hosts or become hosts themselves, making storage and parking more accessible, convenient, and affordable.

To overcome the challenge, Bietsch turned to Bubble, a powerful no-code platform that allowed him to bring his ideas to life quickly. Bubble's easy-to-use interface and fast online deployment enabled Bietsch to go from an idea to having an MVP online with 20+ users within a month. The StowShare app works similarly to Airbnb's process. Users can sign up to either become a host or find a host to store their stuff. Once a space is listed, other users can reserve it by searching within their area and clicking on the listing. The platform also allows users to cancel anytime without any cancellation fees. Bubble's no-code platform was instrumental in creating a marketplace website in no time, making it as easy as editing a picture in Photoshop.
