The challenge 

Shimrai was transitioning into a regional-scale B2B operation, serving corporate clients across industries — oil & gas, pharma, food. Their communication reflected neither their growth nor the sophistication of their technology platform.

Starting point

  • Fragmented communication, with no cohesive strategy
  • An existing web design in need of a development partner
  • Growing pains: execution alone was no longer enough

What they really needed

A partner who understood their business deeply and brought strategic perspective to their communication decisions.

We're always grateful to the Prisma team. Professionalism and commitment from start to finish — it's a pleasure to grow alongside you.

The approach

2018

First contact

We arrived as the development partner for their website. We went beyond the technical: we asked questions, understood their business model, and learned how fleet management actually works.

The shift

From vendor to counterpart

Over time the collaboration evolved. We became a direct counterpart for Shimrai's team: we understood the complexity of their business and could add value beyond technical implementation.

What made it possible

  • Coherent answers grounded in business understanding
  • Strategic questions before taking on each request
  • Learning their operation: clients, processes, pain points
  • Becoming a go-to resource for communication decisions

The process

Flutter app — the turning point

Shimrai had a robust backend and needed a mobile app for fleet managers and drivers to interact with the platform. A six-month iterative project: Flutter (single codebase), API integration, extensive wireframing and screen-by-screen definition across in-person and remote workshops. While building the app we spotted UX improvements across the whole system — we shared them, and Shimrai's team evaluated and implemented them.

A stable app that ran for years with minimal updates. Most later adjustments were on the system side — proof of solid architecture. It consolidated our role as strategic partners.

Web redesign & repositioning

The website needed to communicate tangible results. Visitors arrived looking for answers to concrete pains — operating costs, efficiency, control — and needed to see immediately how Shimrai solved them. We pivoted from listing service features to demonstrating measurable impact: a moodboard with two design directions evaluated with the client, a clean look of vector shapes and crisp lines, benefit-first information architecture, AI-generated imagery reflecting real use cases, and a bilingual React build (ES/EN) for LATAM expansion.

A site that communicates value clearly and directly, ready for regional scale.

Segmented social strategy

The insight: the person who hires Shimrai is not the person who uses it every day. Different audiences, different messages. LinkedIn for decision-makers (ROI, business outcomes, strategic benefits); Instagram for end users (day-to-day features, practical tips, user experience).

Segmented communication that speaks directly to each audience's needs.

The content shift

Before

“We are a fleet management company with 17 years of experience...”

After

“Smart technology that cuts costs by up to 20% and maximizes every vehicle's uptime.”

From talking about the company to talking about the client's result. That shift now runs through every Shimrai piece.

The impact

Immediate results

  • Stable, low-maintenance app at the core of their service
  • A website that communicates value clearly and directly
  • Audience-segmented social strategy

Long-term collaboration

  • Continuous work since 2018
  • Ongoing input on pitch decks, presentations and communication decisions
  • Business knowledge that stays and compounds

Strategic transformation

  • Shimrai now communicates with a focus on measurable results across every piece — a shift born from looking at their value proposition together, through their clients' eyes.
