Project Summary

u2i built a prototype knowledge-management platform that aggregates data from Gmail, Google and multiple CRMs so information can be navigated, visualized, and queried in one place. The prototype used a TypeScript backend and Neo4j for the database. The client noted timely delivery, regular communication, and direct stakeholder interactions that reduced miscommunication.

Key Challenges

Fragmented information across multiple tools (Gmail, CRMs, note apps)
Need for a prototype to consolidate, navigate, visualize, and query dispersed data
