What Sotheby's needed
The Collective Napa Valley Barrel Auction sells Napa wines that are still ageing in the barrel. The bidders are in the room.
A lot doesn't go to one winner. The ten highest bids each get the wine.
What we did
We helped Sotheby's build a real-time auction system around a live leaderboard, so everyone in the room sees where they stand.
The front end is Next.js and React. The backend is GraphQL and TypeScript.
