CSI Project – Full Stack Application

VELORA is a full-stack web application that provides regional construction material price benchmarks.

It helps contractors and builders avoid overpaying by showing a rolling median price based on real trader submissions.

Problem Statement

Construction material prices vary across traders and regions.
There is no centralized benchmark system to verify fair market pricing.

This leads to:

• Overpaying for materials
• Lack of price transparency
• No structured comparison system

VELORA solves this problem by providing a regional price intelligence dashboard.
