Augmentive is a state-of-the-art platform that removes both the practical and emotional friction driving a widespread mental health crisis which has been building over the last few years. Through the platform, practitioners are able to manage their entire practice digitally. New clients can connect directly with them with just a few clicks. By combining human intelligence, artificial intelligence and automation Augmentive is able help people access the most relevant support with minimum effort.
Mercury Labs built and actively maintains Augmentive's technology stack from the ground up. The backend is written in Go and leverages gRPC for client and server communication. We chose gRPC for its low-latency and high-speed throughput, providing users with a fantastic user experience. We also loved that protocol buffers were language agnostic, allowing our data team to work with the server side directly (where necessary). Our frontend is built with Nuxt.js alongside an internal administration/analytics application. The entire infrastructure runs on a Kubernetes cluster inside AWS, with RDS for data storage and CI/CD configured from the outset.
Value Added
- Continuously developing the product from inception through Venture Capital funding rounds.
- High performance, low latency, scalable platform for mental health professionals to conduct their business. Golang, gPRC, Nuxt, Docker and Kubernetes were chosen for the core stack.
- Tracking technology and data driven insights to continuously improve product offering.
- Marketing analytics and sub-second machine learning powered search to support conversion rate optimisation.
NB: we do not claim to be the sole contributing factor to growth over the last 3 months.
