Oka is involved in mentoring across different environments from schools and charities through to leaders in business. A common theme is that people and companies find it really hard to find the right mentor. Even when they find mentors and try to establish a match, they're not using proper psychometric tools. The goal is to create a psychometrically based matching algorithm that learns as more data comes through. 

For this version, the goal was to start generating data. The main goal at the time of development was to match mentees with mentors, using a psychometrically based questionnaire. It gathers data, and allows Oka to match mentors and mentees in a hybrid way. Part automated and part manual.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We were able to use the app with a charity and two business organisations providing us with a proof of concept that then allowed us to raise investment. We have since re-built the platform based on the original work started by Tinkso and raised a further round of investment. We have now extended the scope of our work. Tinkso provided a critical foundation for the point we've reached today.

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

The project management was excellent. Communication was clear. Prioritisation clear and accessible making it easy to discuss changes as and when needed. They were always responsive, even after we had completed the work and there was no business imperative for them to answer questions.I would recommend them without a second thought.

What was your primary form of communication with Tinkso?

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

They listened, they wanted to understand, they wanted to do a good job and deliver on what was requested. They are bright, responsive, thoughtful and well planned. There was always transparency and clear expectations.

Nothing I can think of. I really rate them.

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

Their technical expertise is unparalleled. Given the scale of the project (100M legacy records), we're pushing at the edges of Bubble's capacities and they're good at innovating in the unknown.

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

Because we were innovating on Bubble + Xano's capabilities, we all probably should have set more conservative timelines. This was not a simple project but that was part of the appeal for everyone involved.
