Mooney admin is the back office behind [Mooney](/casestudies/mooney), OCTYN's own voice-first Android expense tracker. It is internal, with no public surface, and it is the part of Mooney that only the people who run it ever see.

## The situation

A live app needs a way to send its users notifications and a way to read what they write back. Both need a place for the team to work, and that place touches user data, so it has to be locked before it is useful.

## What was built

Two surfaces, side by side.

The first is a composer for the notifications Mooney sends. The steps are the ones drawn on the case thumbnail: compose the message, filter who it goes to, schedule it, send it. A notification can go out now or be saved as scheduled.

The second is a triage queue for what users write in: feedback lands there, and the team reads and sorts it in one place.

## Who can reach it

Only the people who run Mooney, and there are two locks on that.

An access gate sits in front of the whole surface, so the pages are not open to anyone outside the team. Behind it, every table in the database carries row-level security tied to the team's accounts, so the data stays closed even if a page were ever reached. Sign-in is by an emailed link.

It is built on Next.js and Supabase, with Cloudflare Access as the gate.

## What the record holds

It was recorded as internal on 2026-07-06. OCTYN has recorded no send counts or feedback volumes for it, so none are quoted here. What is on the record is the access model above: row-level access on every table, and a gate in front of the whole surface.
