Avatar is a cutting-edge training solution developed by DataH2O, designed to transform how contact centres and customer outreach teams train, support, and manage employee development.

We developed a bespoke AI training platform using Python, React.js, and Google Cloud technologies. The platform delivers interactive training simulations. It supports scalable deployment and simplifies employee learning experiences.

RiskPal is a specialist risk management platform. It helps organisations operating in high-risk and complex environments manage projects, people, and locations more effectively. The platform improves decision-making. Strengthens duty of care. Supports compliance through structured risk assessment processes.
RiskPal needed a mobile application that could deliver the same functionality as its web platform. The challenge was translating detailed, rules-driven risk assessment workflows into a mobile experience without compromising security, compliance, or usability.
We designed and developed a cross-platform mobile application that extends RiskPal’s existing platform to iOS and Android devices. The solution provides secure access and dynamic risk assessments. It also provides approvals, document management, and mobile-first workflows. Support users wherever they operate.

Honeysales is a Berlin-based sales technology start-up. They help businesses find and manage better sales opportunities. Their platform supports outbound sales teams. It brings lead discovery and data enrichment into one place. It also reduces the amount of manual work involved.
As the business grew, the team found themselves working across multiple tools to search for, enrich, and organise lead data. This created extra steps and duplicated effort. It was challenging to maintain a consistent workflow across the business.
We developed a bespoke web application. It brings lead discovery, enrichment, and data management together within a single platform. The solution connects with trusted third-party data providers and Google Workspace services. The process is faster and easier for account managers to handle.

Their communication skills and ability to complete the project within budget and timescale were impressive.
After the launch of the website, the client received feedback from customers concerning a better UX, and Chilliapple Ltd. was able to update easier than before. They communicated through Campfire and had weekly updates through Zoom meetings. Overall, the team provided a good value for the budget.

Good Knowledge of Magento: Chilliapple was recommended to us for their Magento knowledge which has proved to be excellent. We worked with Bowo and Vipin to migrate and upgrade our existing Magento shops to a new UK Fast server with additional features and plug ins installed resulting in a faster admin than we previously had. I would recommend Chilliapple for Magento especially multiple shops.
Steve Long Merlin Workwear
Great work with the team at Chilliapple. They undertook our website maintenance from a previous developer and they have managed to accommodate many of our initial needs, including an upgrade to Magento 2.4.
Since then, we have overcome many more requests to improve website and shopping functionality and while I personally will not be overseeing their work anymore, I trust though that Versapak are in safe hands and that they can meet any new challenge that may arise.

I've worked with many web agencies in the past and ChilliApple certainly shine above the rest. Our account manager Bowo has been extremely attentive and pro-active, without whom we would not have been able to deploy our Magento 2 migration by the end of 2020.
We're very pleased at the hard work and patience that Bowo and the development team have put into this project, especially as we were working long hours towards the end. I look forward to continued work with ChilliApple in 2021!

Our website is built in Prestashop, and finding credible developers to maintain and progress the site was very difficult once we had made the decision to move on from our current developer.
Chilli Apple initially upgraded and re-themed our site to a very high standard with excellent communication throughout. We went live with the update (which was quite a major undertaking as it had not been done for some time and a lot had changed) right at the beginning of the COVID fiasco. [+]
