THE CHALLENGE

Turning Thick Data into Tangible Insights

Caramelo Escaso needed to help clients move beyond surface-level engagement metrics. They required a system to collect, analyze, and visualize organizational culture data at scale. Without a centralized tool, their process was manual and the diagnostics failed to capture the real gaps. By partnering with us, they got a scalable solution to measure cultural maturity and inform strategic decisions.

INITIAL STATE

OUR SOLUTION

Cooltura®: A Data-Driven Culture Journey from Survey to Powerful Real-Time Analytics Dashboards

Requirements

Simplification

We helped productize a diagnostic model blending quantitative data (16 cultural behaviors) and thick data (AI-enhanced qualitative insights) to pinpoint gaps and prioritize actions for HR and leadership.

Application

Building

We built a React, Next.js, Drizzle, and PostgreSQL solution integrated with Typeform to render cultural results in real-time, processing demographics, annual comparisons, and dynamic graphs with analytics powered by Shadcn and Radix UI.

Prototype

Realease

We delivered in 7 weeks, completing user stories with 97% quality. The MVP included real-time pulse tracking, action dashboards, and a fully branded UI aligned with Caramelo Escaso's identity, making culture measurable/actionable from day one.

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK

Culture Made Visible, Actionable, and Scalable

After go-live, client teams reported faster turnaround on insights and better alignment between survey data and leadership actions. Raíz now powers cultural diagnostics across multiple clients. Teams reported clearer alignment between leadership behaviors and strategic goals. The new tools became part of everyday rituals—supporting ongoing transformation, not just one-time reflection.

Camila, I really appreciate the extra efforts you have made on the app this months. I feel you went above and beyond to create scalable solutions consistent with the existing design. You achieved far more than I thought was going to be possible going in, and the new version of the app gives me a lot more confidence to go into sales mode.

I've dm'd you a gift card code for Amazon as thanks.

Every Mother

A quick shoutout to Melt, it's been several months now and it's clear that our new dev team has been crushing expectations all around. Shoutout to Camila who has been killing it on uhc and flex, especially on uhc, which basically gave us documentation for a platform that only exists in their dreams. Considering she's doing this without a test environment which uhc guaranteed us, Camila has put in a lot of elbow grease to make this implementation seemingly smooth sailing. Additional shoutouts to Yuli and Miguel who both have stepped into the shoes of past RPS teammates to support internal operational functions as well as put the pedal on the gas to churn out product developments. Lastly to Yulys and Austin who have seamlessly taken in the project reigns from Natali alongside the rest of Melt. Special shoutout to Sebastian who is always helping from the shadows but more recently has been contributing a great deal of effort to help resolve some longstanding revenue analytics issues. So thank you to our Melt teammates for being able to hop in immediately, helping EM put some very big pieces into place at this critical moment of our company's growth! 🎉🎉
