What We Do
The AdMogul
The AdMogul is our foray into the world of social games.
The game is based around television commercials (hence the name) and challenges you to pick the best commercials from within a particular campaign. If your choices match that of the general population, you gain Xp (or experience points) which help you in winning cool real-world gifts and merchandise at the end of the month.
The top scorers every month are rewarded with gift vouchers and AdMogul merchandise. The game is completely free and you can play it with your friends and people from your city and country.
We curate super-fun-to-watch commercials from all over the world and even if you are not into games, you can still enjoy the game by watching advertising brilliance from across the globe, delivered fresh to you everyday!

Amazon Mechanical Turk
Having built two extremely comprehensive crowd sourcing solutions for our clients and our own product (AdMogul), we have learnt the ins and outs of everything related to Amazon's Mechanical Turk platform.
After having successfully delivered these solutions, we are very confident of architecting, buildling and deploying a system which taps into the human intelligence of real people spread over the globe in an extremely cost-effective and efficient manner.
User Experience Design
"Getting more done with less" is what application development today is all about. Gone are the days of clunky and bloated software with their difficult to use interfaces.
We at Intellista deeply believe that software should be extremely simple to use and intuitive. Your users should not have to refer a manual or think twice about what a particular button or link does.
We have a dedicated team at Intellista which can design and deliver the best user interface and interaction experience to the users for your software application. Be it on the web, desktop or mobile. Our team has more than five years of experience in designing user experiences and are always up to date with the latest happening in that space.
So when we design the user interface for your next desktop application or website - it will not only be sleek and sexy, but also extremely functional and usable.
Compovie
Ever had a to pick between a choice of films and didn't know which one to watch? Compovie is your answer!
Compovie is a movie comparison tool that we cooked up over a weekend to help solve all our movie watching dilemmas. It worked so well that we made it available to everyone -- for free!
Compovie compares a list of movies that you specify from highly reputed sources - viz. the IMDB database and Rotten Tomatoes. It will even give you a nice movie poster, a synposis and other relevant important information so that you can make a smart decision.
So head over to: http://compovie.com and kiss your movie-choosing problems away.
MongoDB
MongoDB is an extremely popular, NO-SQL database which has seen massive adoption off-late. While it is not recommended for every application, it really saves the day for the ones which need to dump a tonne of data in a very short period of time (like for our AdMogul game).
Being a document store also has its advantages.
We have used MongoDB extensively over the past eight months on our own product (AdMogul - which is a social game) and also a couple of our client projects which had gigabytes of weakly-structured data to be stored and retrieved extremely quickly.
We have learnt and lived and built our understanding of this stack and are extremely confident of delivering solutions that require a NoSQL database stack to be used.
Idea Management
Intellista's Idea Management system is a web application tool that can be used to log, manage and track ideas for just about any project.
The software allows other members to vote up / down on ideas and has gamification built in to encourage participation. Users can get points for submitting ideas, voting for other ideas, etc.
The application allows you to create admin as well as normal users. Admins can edit and moderate ideas that are being posted.
Some of the other great features of the application are:
- Daily Email Activity Summaries
- A google bot which can be used to log in ideas directly from a Jabber / GTalk client.
- A powerful search and tagging feature which can dig up the idea you are looking for in a jiffy.
We are offering the Idea Management System as a white label solution and can customize it and add / remove features to it as per your requirements. You will get the complete source code when you purchase a license to the same along with one year of support.
Licenses start from USD 259.00
Crowd Sourcing
There are many complex technology challenges today - given the scale of web applications and the smarts that they need to have. Some of these problems would require extremely complicated systems to be written.
For example - automatic tagging of user uploaded images. Or, how do you identify whether an image that a particular user has uploaded is has adult-related content or not? Or, given a list of 1000 commercials, how can you automatically identify which of them relate to a particular brand?
Though software can be probably written to automate these tasks, it will be extremely complicated, hugely expensive and the results will need to be tweaked for a long time before we can get acceptable results.
In such scenarios, a quick and very inexpensive solution can be obtained by using crowd sourcing platforms in which humans come together from all over the world to do simple taks for small payments.
Instead of spending months and literally hundreds of thousands of dollars building a complicated system to filter out adult images from your user uploaded content, you can have a crowd sourced system setup in a couple of weeks with a fraction of the investment. You only pay agents if they give the correct output and the payments are in the range of a couple of cents for every image scanned.
We have built two such comprehensive crowd sourced systems for our clients from the ground up. One was for AdMogul - to source interesting commercials for he game and to clean the data from existing Youtube tags. The other system was for a client to clean data coming from event aggregation services (which have a lot of errors generally).
Though we learn and grow everyday, we believe that we have the expertise to architect and design such systems as per your needs and requirements. Once the entire application is designed, tasks are automatically created and agents automatically paid with minimum intervention required.
We offer consulting services in designing and architecting such systems and also building it from ground up if required.
Our choice of programming language is C# which gives us an extremely good balance between rapid development, great support and super fast performance on most hardware. Apart from delivering web applications using Asp.Net / C#, we have also developed many desktop applications ranging from Point of Sale systems to Hearing Aid Tuning software.
We have over six years of experience in developing in C# and have a good understanding and grasp of its pros and cons and other nuances.
Eventshelf
EventShelf is an event aggregation and listing solution.
If you run an organisation which has plenty of events happening - like a school, college, club, venue, etc. - EventShelf will help you showcase your events in a very easy, social manner.
It comes with tonnes of features right out of the box which makes it very easy to create, manage and share events. You can tag and categorise events, create communities, bookmark events and even let members from your community add events to your portal.
The entire system is highly skinnable and you can have different themes and skins for different sub-domains on the system. The event data can be consumed in a variety of formats including iCal, RSS feeds, email notifications, etc.
We are offering EventShelf as a white label solution and can customize it and add / remove features to it as per your requirements. You will get the complete source code when you purchase a license to the same along with one year of support.
Licenses start from USD 599.00
System Architecture and Design
"Successful systems are built on the strongest of foundations"
We have a dedicated team of consultants at Intellista who have more than five years of experience (each) in architecting, building and designing complex, highly scalable and very social applications - for the desktop, mobile and the web.
We have architected systems in the past with focus on speed, scalability and performance and are proud of the fact that we have delivered each and everytime.
We have an in-depth knowledge of technology solutions available in the market today, their pros and cons -- and can very easily suggest a technology fit for your problem. We have designed and architected systems and solutions in a plethora of technologies ranging from Ruby on Rails, Asp.Net, PHP, Python on the scripting front to MySQL, MS-SQL, MongoDB and Redis on the backend.
If you have a problem (traditional or otherwise) which can be solved with the help of technology, we can consult you on the technologies that you would require to build your solution along with designing and architecting the system to industry standard specifications. We also have a very talented team of developers who can implement the system for you if required.
Today, the Facebook eco system is extremely difficult to ignore if you are building a consumer / social application on the internet. We have worked very closely with the Facebook SDK and API for our own products (AdMogul) and also for a few client applications.
Having worked on the platform for more than a year and a half, we have a very good understanding of what works and what doesn't with it, what the platform is really good at and what should be avoided while using it.
