From a successful demo to a thriving product partnership
Coherent.global is a worldwide SaaS company transforming how business and IT teams manage and integrate business logic. Its Coherent Spark technology lets businesses convert complex Excel-based business logic into functional applications without code. Coherent sought a partner combining project and product management, top-notch digital product development, and industry experience — to help Coherent and its customers build products on the Spark engine tailored to their industries. Agilno was chosen to fulfill this objective.
What we built
A fintech demo in just seven days for a major industry conference
Our partnership began with a demo for FinovateFall 2022, one of the world's largest fintech conferences. With seven days from concept to finished product, we assembled a team and rapidly ramped up on Spark — which we'd never used — to convert an Excel model into a ready-to-use API. Following a Design-Sprint-like process, we delivered a fully functional Expected Credit Losses Calculator, showcased on stage by Coherent's CTO.

A portfolio optimization tool
We coordinated five teams across continents: a product owner in Hong Kong, developers in Croatia, DevOps in India, a project manager in Canada, and stakeholders in the USA. We leaned into asynchronous collaboration and detailed planning, ensuring Spark WASM could download to a user's device without delay and that the entire app was customizable via Excel, including adding new languages. We went on to build four more Spark-based apps giving Coherent's sales teams a flexible, industry-specific asset to close deals faster:
