New Web Portal in Our Execution: Document Management Software for the MBA School
MIM, the oldest and the biggest MBA School in Ukraine, addressed Softengi with the intent to receive digital consulting services regarding the transformation of an old school web portal for scheduling and information.
At this point, Softengi started cooperating with MIM with the intent of building a reliable web portal application that could improve the operational workflow for MIM in a convenient form.
What did MIM get as a result of the 3-month cooperation with the Softengi team?
- An in-school smart scheduling and information system that met the requirements of the MIM team was the result of a cooperation between Softengi and MIM. First, it is a unified list of teachers, rooms, programs, courses, groups with the editing possibility and open access to the chosen list of participants. All the information is now structured smartly, carefully, and logically and thus can be accessed faster via the text search.
- Second, it is a secure system with authorized access from any part of the world. The validation of the data is automatic which excludes the human factor at the stage of the data entry. The system prohibits last month’s updates; notifications are received by the admin system if the information is updated.
- Finally, the system allows creating monthly workload and payroll reports automatically, which saves a lot of time for the team. These reports can also be exported to more suitable formats, such as excel or HTML.
All in all, it is a scheduling and information system that augments the work of the whole personnel of the biggest MBA business school making it more accurate and error-free.
From a technical perspective, Softengi developed an open-source solution using JavaScript and PostgreSQL.
The system was also updated with the secure survey system which allows collecting valuable information from the questionnaires.
AI-Powered Online Learning Platform for the TeenGeeks School
Softengi has created AI-Powered Online Learning Platform for NGO organization from South Africa called TeenGeeks. This platform called ms. Zora and provides more children with access to computing education. It includes a database of online video courses where all the participants can register and pass a certain course and receive the completion certificate and a learning management system for the education of the students on all the levels.
Using this online platform, students of all levels (from elementary school to college) and across disciplines (such as math, computer science, language arts, social studies) can learn remotely improving their skills step by step. More than that, the system is purely interactive: educators share stories, exchange resources, ask students questions.
Using artificial intelligence algorithms, we have also managed to improve the system with “smart hints” and automatic tasks check.
Several words about the educational approach of this system. The learning process is done with the help of code blocks. This approach is visual, easy to perceive for multiple users, and is efficient.
- Blocks are puzzle piece shapes that are used to create code
- In addition, each student can program his/her own interactive animations, stories, and games.
- Code blocks structure helps young people learn to think creatively and systematically.
From the technical perspective, this is a user-friendly web application, an e-learning system, or a learning management system (LMS). The development of this type of software requires experience and expertise because UI/UX design, thorough QA, and adaptability have paramount importance.
Artificial Intelligence Software for Procurement Management
Procurement, as one of the most complex fields of retail, can benefit the most from Artificial Intelligence Software for Procurement Management.
Among the main procurement challenges that the Nectain’s smart solution aimed to meet are:
- poor supply chain visibility
- market extensive risks and potential frauds
- budget overrun
- agreements and terms compliance
- data management
Softengi heeded all wishes and requirements and started to implement a top-notch software for procurement management. To ensure the versatility and efficiency of the solution, Softengi embedded it with AI, advanced analytics, machine learning technology, and a Data Mining system. As a result, Nectain’s procurement solution enhances effectiveness of users’ routine procurement operations, increases speed of the procurement processes, and reduces costs on sourcing management.
Benefits of Artificial Intelligence Software for Procurement Management :
- Saved Resources
- Enhanced Productivity
- Easy Supplier Selection
- Simple Buyer Management
- Seamless Integration
- Enhanced Security
Mobile/Web Application “Uber for Medical Services”
Our team decided to explore this concept and created the prototype of Uber for medical services - a database of medical specialists who can consult patients on demand via a user-friendly mobile app. We all need professional consulting from time to time, and the degree of its quality depends on the access to the level of education and experience of medical specialists.
Using these mobile applications patients can have the best opinion of the qualified medical providers in any comfortable way: via video, audio or a chat. It looks as simple and nice as the original Uber app: a user can find the required specialist, a psychologist, a pediatrician, a general practitioner within just several clicks and contact him immediately. Сomfort provided thanks to technologies.
AR app for Product Configuration
The Augmented Reality application allows you to demonstrate a product of any size in real-time under any conditions. All you need is a regular smartphone and our application. The essence of the problem lies in the organization of the transportation of the product, its parts and, even, its configuration.
Such logistic operations cost a lot of money, because the larger the load, the more expensive its transportation. It also requires numerous documentary permits, because each country has its own rules on the import of goods. The AR app is able not only to reduce the cost of transportation of demonstration goods, but also to reduce to zero such costs, both in monetary terms and in time.
As you can see, the principle of the AR app allows you to create a 3D model and subsequently an AR-asset for the presentation of any equipment even the bulkiest one. Size, complexity, the number of details, potential danger of the product do not play any role. And the most important thing, which is equally important for marketing, sales, and staff training, is that the performance of the presentation is not lost at all due to the incredible realism.
XR for the Digital Twins of the Equipment
What is a digital twin? It’s a virtual model of a product that can be seen with the help of virtual/mixed/augmented reality applications.
Using this app, anyone can see a 3D model of this advanced piece of equipment and locate it anywhere in the world. It’s possible to adapt this app to MR glasses or use it as an AR app.
Creating digital twins of the equipment has several serious advantages.
First, it is easier to build a mixed reality application for the visualization of deep drilling machines than to transport new models to the exhibition.
Second, it’s possible to create a scalable 3D model of the machinery which will be fully interactive. What does it mean? A user will be able to look inside the equipment, check how the engines work, and choose the most comfortable size to explore the model.
Remote Assistance for the Equipment Manufacturer
It's a modern digital tool that can improve the effectiveness of the equipment assembly and maintenance. Using Remote Assistance employees get the chance to communicate with the top experts remotely fixing the most critical bugs faster.
The benefits of Remote Assistance were indisputable:
- Real-Time Consultation with the top experts. Users got the chance to consult experts from anywhere.
- Chat-based work orders for Accurate and Timely update
- Flexibility and customization
- Sound & video streaming
- Visual annotations ( there are hundreds of methods of information visualization: simple bubbles for the area selection, bubbles located above certain parts of the equipment)
- Recognition of parts of equipment using QR codes
Visual annotations and the possibility to see all the parts of the equipment from all sides enhance the level of comprehension of information and its retention in the future. Even for the non-technical stuff. For the technical stuff, results can be amazing.
MVPCast Live Video Streaming App
- High-quality video streaming without delays. This live streaming video application allows non-stop streaming. Failover system improvement (so that users don’t lose the video the internet connection) was a critical solution of the problem of poor Internet connection. It includes buffereazation and offline preservation.
- Cloud Storage. All the data is securely stored in the cloud. It makes all the data more accessible, more usable and easier to share. Additionally, it is better in terms of data recovery. We useAmazon Web Services to store the data as we see it as the most optimal and secure solution.
- Non-stop full HD video streaming. We used Wowza streaming service to provide users with the best streaming quality. It’s professional-grade streaming for any use case and any device. A huge plus of this app is that the number of users doesn’t ’ influence the quality of connection.
- Сonnectivity/Compatibility with various devices. The app works on 4G on Android and iOS devices. All in all, it’s a video streaming platform that can be used for multiple purposes.
- XR for comfortable visualization and analytics. Implementation of XR technologies into this live video streaming platform will give users the possibility to detect and track players, determining the speed of the passes, best movements and other useful parameters for coaches and parents.
- We’ve created unique design for MVPCast after conducting a serious UI/UX research on a potential target group. After all, good UI/UX is based on profound research.

Chatbot for DevOps Department
This chatbot was created by our DevOps Department to solve several communication/management problems and to automate repetitive actions increasing the speed of releases.
These are some of the goals we’ve managed to achieve with the help of this chatbot:
- Collection of Performance Statistics. Our chatbot is able to collect performance statistics. For example, if the last 10 tasks failed or were successful, the statistics are displayed in red or green, respectively. At the end of the month, a detailed report is automatically created as a file for all projects and their participants.
- Problematic Situations Prediction.The possibility to predict problems is one of the most valuable features of this chatbot. This feature allows fixing the problem in advance. We can also monitor the activity of users of our products and analyze this data. This gives us the opportunity to choose the most suitable time for new releases.
- Remote Task Management. For instance, there was a need to copy the database but you don’t have access to PC at the moment. Using a chatbot, it’s easy to send this command via messenger and get things done remotely.
- Security. Of course, we didn’t neglect security. As the messenger has limited access, only those who passed the authorization can join and send commands so the security part is well-thought as well.
- Timely Reporting. After receiving this task, the bot is assigned with this simple task and is ready to perform it and report about it. If the task was not successful, it explains the reason for the failure. If it was a success, the bot informs about the details of the task. For instance, it can send the directions of the folder where it is preserved the database.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I am a co-founder and a Head of Product of 4ComfortShoes. The created application is essentially a kind of aggregator of shoe models. It is very easy to use, the user just needs to put their foot on a blank sheet and point the camera at it.
As a result, we get a 3D model of the foot formed from the images (this was created without lengthy development from scratch, but using a ready-made tool from a professional institute of anthropology that specializes in this). Based on this data, the program will calculate the size and help you choose the most comfortable pair.
