We see a novel use case around low/no code.
We hire engineers (usually ML, computer visions, etc.) and embed them with clients.
They meet 1-1 with their team members to walk through what they actually do in their daily work.
The eng. can then build light-weight solutions in real-time to optimize & automate those workflows.
It’s like prototyping as a service.
There’s certainly a huge movement around “citizen developers,” but what we’ve seen is these makers get stuck quickly when their solutions need to scale, be used by someone else, or integrate with other workflows.
Computational thinking is the key.
Initially we thought, like everyone else, we’d hire no coders and teach them to think like engineers.
It became obvious quickly that is was more about finding product-minded engineers who enjoy building things that help people and then show them how fast they could do that with these tools.
It’s made us incredibly opinionated about no code tools. Most are too limited for this approach.
