What we can help with

⁠

⁠

New Doc Buildouts: We specialize in new doc buildouts, starting with aligning on project goals, then visualizing the workflows, building out the doc iteratively while collaborating with you on implementation decisions, and finally training you on your new doc. This often entails transferring your complicated workflows from Excel spreadsheets into simple, automated Coda docs.

⁠

Custom Pack Creation: We have two full-stack developers on our team who can consult you on your Pack ideas, co-build packs with you, or build them for you. In addition to making packs for our own purposes, we’ve also made Packs during new doc buildouts to make the docs work exactly as desired by our clients.

⁠

Packs Implementation: Our full-stack developers are experts in working with integrations and APIs. If you’re having trouble getting the data you need from a Pack (or from somewhere else), we can help.

⁠

Process Design & Automation: Almost all of the docs we build have automations in them to reduce manual effort. We can help you identify areas where automations can save you time and implement them for you.

Our Work

Project Examples

Sawmill Operations Tracker We built two Coda docs for

Seaton Forest Products⁠

- one for tracking log deliveries, and one for tracking timber production. Prior to this engagement, our client was tracking everything in several complex Excel spreadsheets. Now, many of her tasks are automated, the two Coda docs sync with each other using Cross-doc to track inventory, and she is able to spend more time focusing on business strategy.

Shopify Integration We worked with

Vana Chupp Studio⁠

to help them integrate their Shopify order data into a Coda doc. Specifically, they were wanting to auto-generate a table with all items from each order in separate rows, but the Pack only offered the ability to generate rows at the orders level. We set up automations and used our coding expertise to parse the JSON and generated the desired table with each item in its own row and syncing automatically with Shopify.

Packs Implementation Process Design & Automation

Electrician Quoting We built a quoting system for

Inskip Electric⁠

. They approached us looking for a solution for their laborious process of repeatedly digging up numerous material costs, manually calculating totals, and building customer quotes. This process added many hours to an already full work week for the company so the owner was spending their weekends working on quotes. We implemented a solution that keeps all material pricing automatically updated, utilizes quick quoting templates and outputs a finalized quote. The owner can now build quotes quickly while on the work site and has reclaimed their weekends.

We’ve also built several custom packs:

Before Little Robot, she spent 20 years managing a not-for-profit multiplex cinema and consulting communities on the development of their own not-for-profit entertainment venues. During this time in management she developed a passion (bordering on an obsession) with spreadsheets and their ability to streamline business processes.
