Rental Boyfriend Platform Development

I want to launch a web-based service where people can rent a “boyfriend” for virtual or in-person companionship. The platform must support two distinct profile types—renters searching for company and rental boyfriends offering their time. Each user should see only the features relevant to their role, yet both profiles need to coexist smoothly inside a single code-base and database.

Phone number verification is mandatory for every rental boyfriend profile before it can go live. If you have an elegant way to add ID or social-media checks later, please structure the code so we can slot those in without refactoring large sections.

Core scope
• Build a clean registration and login flow that branches into Renter or Rental dashboards after sign-up.
• Integrate a reliable SMS gateway (Twilio or similar) to handle one-time codes for the required phone check.
• Create profile pages with photos, bio, availability calendar, and basic rating placeholders so we are ready for future reviews.
• Provide an admin panel that lets me approve, suspend, or edit any profile and view verification logs.

Tech preferences
I lean toward a MERN or Laravel stack because I am familiar with them, but I am open to any framework that gives us speed, security, and a straightforward handover. Please outline your proposed tech set in the bid.

Acceptance criteria
1. A new rental boyfriend cannot be searched or booked until his phone number is successfully verified and logged in the database.
2. Renters can browse active rental profiles and send booking requests through a simple, time-stamped form.
3. The admin dashboard visibly flags every verification attempt and allows manual override.
4. Code is documented, repo-ready, and deploys on a standard cloud host (Heroku, Vercel, or an AWS EC2/Elastic Beanstalk setup).

Deliver the full source, database schema, and minimal deployment guide so I can take it live and iterate.
