Development & Support for Chatbot Producer
"They’re a leading company in conversational technology."

the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the founder of a company that makes chatbots for law firms. We automate conversations in English and Spanish for Facebook Messenger, web, SMS, and WhatsApp.
What challenges were you trying to address with The Neon Project?
I had begun to build the chatbots, but I wanted to bring some more maturity to my project. I was attracted to The Neon Project because of their experience with natural language processing and their team’s fluency in both Spanish and English.
What was the scope of their involvement?
They began by doing a UX review of my chatbot. From there, they scoped out the project to provide further AI development. We used Google Dialogflow and IBM Watson. They also have a proprietary product that they created to handle conversational problems. We also use Miro to map out potential workflows.
We’re working in two-week product sprints to build new features for the chatbots.
What is the team composition?
I work with five people from their team including Javier (Co-Founder), Danny (Software Engineer), and Miguel (Software Developer).
How did you come to work with The Neon Project?
A former employee of The Neon Project had written a lot of things about chatbot design in Spanish, so I reached out to her.
How much have you invested with them?
I’ve invested between $40,000–$50,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
I started working with them in October 2018, and our engagement is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
They helped me migrate from a no-code platform to my own proprietary platform. That’s helped me get more customers and it gives my product differentiation. Ultimately, I think their work will help me secure venture funding for my company.
How did The Neon Project perform from a project management standpoint?
As a person without technical experience, they’ve been great about guiding me and explaining the development process. We use Jira for project management. We typically communicate via Google Meet and Slack.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re still very few people that understand how to tackle a multi-channel, multilingual machine learning conversational software product. They really understand the challenges around this type of development, and they know how to get a stable product to market. They’re a leading company in conversational technology.
They’re really practical, and they have a great eye for budget-driven solutions. They’ve helped me save a good amount of money.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, they’ve been amazing. It took us a minute to figure out their IP rights, especially as a European company working with me, an American.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Invest a lot of time upfront to develop a roadmap and detailed specifications so that you can understand what the project entails. Make sure you have realistic expectations for budget and timeframe.

We have bi-weekly meetings to discuss progress, and what is to be worked on for the next two weeks. We use Zoom for communication.

IoT & Web Development for Tourist Storage Solution
"Everything works like magic."
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the CEO of an innovative IoT company with a tourist storage solution. They’re small lockers that are fully automated and require no staff onsite.
What challenge were you trying to address with The Neon Project?
We receive more than 90 million tourists a year, which is actually a huge problem. We did a lot of research to see what solutions are available in the market.
No one had automatic smart lockers that were without staff. That’s why we decided to pursue our business idea to automate the whole process. We needed a company to help us develop our tourist storage solution.
What was the scope of their involvement?
The team developed the entire IoT solution for our smart lockers. They built the whole booking process. Once a customer books the locker on the website, they receive a QR code and an ID code to their mobile phone.
With that code, customers can open the storage front door and locker. They can leave their belongings in storage and pick it up later. Our website is in different languages so that the customer can book in their language.
They used React and Python.
What is the team composition?
There are more than 20 people. There are 5–6 people working at a time for us with different skills. Sometimes they’re working on the frontend, backend, or UX/UI.
There’s a project manager that’s in charge of the project. He puts together a team for whatever task we need.
How did you come to work with The Neon Project?
We started developing with another company, and they disappeared from the market. We needed a new partner and researched companies that had knowledge of the technologies we were using.
We came up with six different companies, and one was The Neon Project. We ran a short interview with all of them. We decided they were the best choice, and we were right.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent €120,000 (approximately $137,000 USD).
What is the status of this engagement?
Our engagement with The Neon Project started in April 2019.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’re very happy with The Neon Project. Everything works like magic. The flow is effortless, and the booking process is fast. It’s perfect for tourists who may speak another language.
The reviews we get are great. They talk about how great the technology is working and that the whole process has a great flow. It’s fool-proof.
How did The Neon Project perform from a project management standpoint?
Project management is what I mostly like. They’re very flexible and can adapt very well to client needs. We use Slack, phone, and email. Their team is always open to new ideas.
What did you find most impressive about them?
The Neon Project operates as an internal tech team. Everyone on the team is very involved with the project and trying to help. They put some good ideas on the table.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I don’t have any negative feedback. I’m really happy with them.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
The Neon Project is the best company you can get to work with. I recommended them to someone, and they are now working together. They’re also very happy working with them.
As a result of The Neon Project’s work, the chatbot startup has gained more customers. Their expertise in natural language processing in both Spanish and English makes them stand out from other service providers.
