Motolith – Quick Commerce for Automobile Parts

The Idea - Quick commerce for India’s automobile repair ecosystem

The idea behind Motolith was simple — to make auto part procurement faster, smarter, and more cost-effective for garages and workshops. The founders saw a massive gap in the unorganized supply chain for spare parts, where delays and price inconsistencies affected operations daily. Motolith set out to build a digital marketplace that combined inventory depth, dynamic pricing, and instant delivery for garages nationwide.

The Execution - Building a high-performance, scalable e-commerce platform for auto parts

7Span partnered with Motolith from the ground up to define its technology roadmap and develop the platform in phases. The core challenge was enabling dependent searches across 20,000+ SKUs and 200+ product categories while maintaining performance. We implemented dynamic filters that adapt in real time based on previous selections, optimized search logic, and developed an admin panel for efficient product and category management.
