Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Euristiq’s team began by performing a full audit of our existing architecture. What stood out was their ability to ask the right questions not just technical ones, but also those that tied into our business priorities. They spent time with both our development and account teams to understand how latency, system limitations, and bottlenecks were impacting client delivery.

Their solution was built from the ground up around performance and fault tolerance. They proposed and implemented a microservices-based architecture, breaking down the monolith into independently deployable modules. This allowed us to scale individual components like campaign rendering, media asset management, and analytics without burdening the entire system.

Some key deliverables included:

1. A highly scalable backend infrastructure, capable of serving multiple millions of ad impressions per day without compromising load speed.
2. An advanced caching and CDN strategy to handle static and dynamic content delivery efficiently.
3. Real-time analytics pipelines, optimized for low-latency data processing, which gave our account managers up-to-the-minute campaign performance insights.
4. Load balancing and autoscaling mechanisms that ensured stability even during peak usage, such as Black Friday campaigns.
5. A custom admin panel tailored for our internal teams to manage campaigns, monitor performance metrics, and respond to technical issues in real time.                                                                                                                                                                                                             They also supported us with DevOps integration automating CI/CD pipelines, setting up robust monitoring tools, and ensuring high availability across regions

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The results were noticeable almost immediately after deployment. During one of our busiest client onboarding periods, we saw record level campaign traffic without a single reported slowdown or system issue. Our clients appreciated the smoother experience, and internally, our teams found themselves spending far less time firefighting infrastructure problems and more time focusing on innovation.

One moment that really underscored the value of Euristiq’s work happened during a national retail campaign launch, when an unexpected surge in traffic occurred due to a viral influencer post. Under our old system, this would have likely led to timeouts or degraded user experience. Thanks to the platform Euristiq engineered, the system absorbed the spike effortlessly with no loss in responsiveness or data capture.

Our campaign managers now have a real-time window into performance metrics they once had to manually compile or estimate. The responsiveness of the system has allowed us to optimize on the fly, improving ad efficiency and client satisfaction.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Euristiq was impressively organized throughout the entire engagement. Their team followed agile practices, conducting biweekly sprint reviews where they walked us through progress, answered our questions transparently, and adjusted timelines as needed without derailing the bigger roadmap. One thing that stood out was their clarity in communication. Even when discussing complex infrastructure changes, they translated technical decisions into business implications we could understand and evaluate.

Their responsiveness was also exceptional. Whether it was a last-minute change request from a partner or an unexpected shift in compliance needs, their team responded not only quickly but thoughtfully offering solutions that didn’t just patch the issue but often improved the system long-term.

What was your primary form of communication with Euristiq?

Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What truly impressed us about Euristiq was their mindset. They treated our platform not as a standalone build but as a living ecosystem that needed to be resilient, flexible, and easy to evolve. Their deep understanding of high-load system architecture was matched by a user-first philosophy that kept our team and our clients in mind at every stage of development.

One example of this: they went out of their way to test our platform under simulated high-traffic stress conditions specific to our ad-delivery patterns. These weren’t off-the-shelf benchmarks they built tests based on real user journeys, helping us uncover edge cases we wouldn’t have discovered until much later.

They also brought a collaborative energy that didn’t waver. It never felt like they were simply fulfilling tasks they were invested in the long-term success of our product, often raising ideas for improvements we hadn’t even thought to consider.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Euristiq could have done differently?

If there’s one area where future engagements could be enhanced, it would be in user onboarding documentation. While their internal code and infrastructure were incredibly well documented, some of the new dashboard features for campaign monitoring could have benefited from more detailed user training or video walk-throughs for non-technical team members. That said, when we flagged this, Euristiq followed up promptly with tailored support materials.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

 The scope was ambitious, involving several departments and user groups. But we knew Euristiq had both the technical sophistication and collaborative mindset to walk with us through complexity.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

From the start, Euristiq demonstrated a deep respect for the academic environment and its nuances. They didn’t treat this as a conventional enterprise app project. Instead, they approached it with curiosity hosting discovery workshops with faculty, IT leaders, graduate students, and admin staff to understand pain points and expectations.

Once the groundwork was laid, they moved into a development phase that touched on multiple dimensions:

Mobile App Development:
They delivered a multi-functional mobile application that acts as a hub for students and faculty alike. The app allows users to browse current research initiatives, find collaborators by interest or expertise, join university-wide events or hackathons, and access shared learning resources. The UI/UX was built with accessibility in mind, ensuring screen reader compatibility and smooth navigation even under high load.

Custom Software Development:
In tandem, Euristiq built a web-based dashboard for administrators and researchers. This system tracks project lifecycles, manages funding documentation, and logs collaborative contributions across departments. It also includes internal messaging, notifications for research compliance deadlines, and a resource booking module for shared equipment and labs.

AI Development:
Where Euristiq truly distinguished themselves was in the way they embedded AI capabilities into the fabric of the platform—not as flashy features, but as meaningful assistants. One tool helps researchers clean and categorize large datasets, another analyzes patterns in research collaboration to suggest interdisciplinary synergies. For students, there’s even a smart recommendation engine for workshops and faculty-led opportunities based on their academic profile and declared interests.

They worked closely with our IT team to ensure security protocols were followed rigorously, including data anonymization features for sensitive academic records. Importantly, all tools were designed with modularity, allowing departments to enable or disable features based on their specific needs.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

From a delivery standpoint, Euristiq was methodical and accountable. Timelines were clearly communicated and adhered to. When new needs emerged like adding French-language support or adjusting compliance features to align with provincial funding rules, they were integrated with minimal disruption. Their sprint cycles were lean, feedback loops were tight, and their responsiveness made us feel genuinely supported throughout. They didn’t just keep us informed, they made us feel like an essential part of the team.

What was your primary form of communication with Euristiq?

Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What set Euristiq apart wasn’t just their technical expertise it was their ability to translate our values into digital tools. They understood the unique ecosystem of a university, where innovation must coexist with regulation, and where diverse user needs require empathy at every level of the design process.

They didn’t just build what we asked for they anticipated needs we hadn’t yet articulated. For example, one of the AI features an assistant that helps researchers identify potential compliance gaps in funding applicationswas their idea, based on observed pain points. It’s now one of our most appreciated tools among faculty leads.

Their team also brought a global perspective, showing awareness of how Canadian post-secondary institutions function while incorporating best practices from educational tech around the world.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Euristiq could have done differently?

While our overall experience was exceptional, one area that could benefit from refinement is their approach to post-launch documentation. Their codebase was well-organized, but some of the admin training materials could have been more tailored to non-technical staff. We raised this with the team and they responded by creating simplified guides and FAQs, which resolved the issue quickly.

Additionally, we would have appreciated a slightly longer runway for onboarding stakeholders who weren’t directly involved in the development process. A broader engagement phase post-launch might’ve helped with change management at the departmental level.

During our introductory meeting, Euristiq’s team presented their 4D Framework (their approach to software development), which we found to be highly valuable given our needs and the lack of specific project requirements.

We began our collaboration with the "Discover" phase, during which we held a series of workshops to clarify our business and user needs. We also mapped out processes, assessed system architecture, and defined the current state.

In the "Decide" phase, we worked closely with the team to set clear priorities and analyze various options. This allowed us to define the desired state and project scope, identify risks, and explore potential solutions and costs, ultimately selecting the most cost-effective option.

Following the "Decide" phase, we moved into the "Design" phase, where we reviewed Euristiq’s proposed solution architecture and technical documentation, and received mockups for the project.

As the scope of work for the road traffic monitoring software project was defined during the Discover, Decide, and Design phases, we proceeded to the Development phase, with the goal of delivering a fully functional digital product within a strict nine-month timeframe. The project focused on ensuring the system could handle real-time data collection, processing, and reporting for a critical infrastructure object.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We started with the Discover phase, where Euristiq and our team studied the project’s requirements. Together, we researched and documented the technical needs, user expectations, and the fundamental architecture required to bring the intelligent traffic monitoring system to life. This stage was critical for us to understand all the project requirements, and make sure we did it right in a technical way but also ensure that we considered all aspects for a better user experience. 

Then, Euristiq proceeded to the decide and design the system architecture — a detailed blueprint that mapped out how data would flow seamlessly from the camera sensors strategically placed within the tunnel, through the software, and finally, to the user interface. This architecture was not just about connecting components; it was about creating a robust framework that could handle the complexities of real-time traffic monitoring, ensuring that every piece of data was captured accurately and processed efficiently.

The next step for Euristiq was to plan the integration of advanced camera sensors into the system. These sensors were the eyes of the operation, continuously monitoring vehicle speed, traffic volume, and congestion levels within the tunnel. The real-time data collected by these sensors was the lifeblood of the system, providing the raw information needed to manage traffic effectively and ensure safety within the tunnel.

To transform this raw data into actionable insights, Euristiq developed data processing algorithms. These algorithms were designed to analyze traffic patterns, generate detailed reports, and offer a clear view of the traffic conditions at any given moment. The insights gained from this data were critical for operators to make informed decisions about traffic management and respond swiftly to any emerging issues.

Meanwhile, their UI/UX design team and our experts worked hand in hand to design a user interface that was not only functional but also intuitive. The result was a set of dashboards that allowed operators to easily view and interpret traffic data. The design focused on clarity and usability, ensuring that even the most complex data could be understood at a glance, empowering operators to manage the tunnel’s traffic flow with confidence.

We finished with the working market-ready product. Within just nine months, Euristiq and our team demonstrated the system’s ability to monitor, analyze, and report on traffic flow. The product is expected to be more than just a technical achievement; it’s proof that the vision conceived in the discovery phase could be realized, providing a powerful tool for managing critical infrastructures.
