About the Client

Enchart is a data-driven presentation platform that helps users turn complex spreadsheets into clear, dynamic visual stories. By connecting directly to Google Sheets, Enchart enables professionals to create and export presentations to Google Slides or PowerPoint in just a few clicks. Its mission is to eliminate repetitive manual work and empower teams to make data storytelling effortless and interactive.

THE CLIENT'S  INITIAL REQUEST

The client aimed to simplify presentation creation, automate chart synchronization, and enable seamless export capabilities within Google and Microsoft ecosystems:

Enable Google Workspace Integration

Implement direct connections to Google Sheets, Google Slides, and Google Drive for real-time data exchange, file management, and export workflows.

Add PowerPoint Export Functionality

Provide users with the ability to export their interactive charts and slides into professional PowerPoint templates with preserved formatting and chart fidelity.

Set Up a Reliable Development Pipeline

Enable automated deployment and CI/CD pipelines to ensure rapid, error-free iteration and reliable delivery of production-ready builds.

Consult on User Analytics and Engagement Tracking

Help the client monitor usage patterns and engagement metrics to inform product improvements and validate MVP adoption.

SOLUTIONS WE DELIVERED

DBB Software delivered a complete end-to-end solution, ensuring that Enchart’s MVP was stable, scalable, and ready for live demonstration:

Google Workspace & Export Integration

Integrated Google APIs for secure authentication and real-time data sync between Google Sheets and presentations. Automated slide generation via the Google Slides API enabled seamless exports to Google Slides and PowerPoint, while a lightweight export server handled high-resolution chart rendering and file organization in Google Drive.

Development Infrastructure & CI/CD Pipeline

Restructured the app into a modular architecture for scalability and rapid iteration. Streamlined delivery via a Webpack build process with hot reloading and automated Heroku deployments, while ESLint, Prettier, and Husky maintain consistent code quality and reduce manual errors.

Analytics & Performance Optimization

Integrated Google Analytics 4 with custom event tracking to capture user actions such as chart interactions, data imports, and exports. Funnel analysis and segmentation enabled the team to identify friction points and prioritize UX improvements for future releases.

RESULTS ACHIEVED
