Introduction

In today’s fast-paced financial markets, investors crave platforms that are intuitive, responsive, and transparent. Parrot Finance recognized this need. As a social investing platform allowing users to mimic trades from vetted influencers, its existing mobile and web applications were falling behind in design and functionality. To remain competitive, Parrot partnered with Latent to reimagine its digital presence—making the platform modern, performant, and more aligned with user expectations.

The Challenge

Parrot Finance’s original product design and functionality showed signs of age:

• Interfaces were outdated, reducing usability and visual appeal
• Features and design didn’t align with current mobile/web standards
• App performance and responsiveness lagged expectations
• Limited real-time capabilities, reducing value for users who want timely insights

Parrot needed a full overhaul—not just cosmetic changes—but a redesign and rebuild to support richer features, better performance, and real-time data integration.

Latent’s Solution

Latent addressed Parrot’s challenge through a multi-facet approach:

1. Redesign for modern experienceCreated fresh, intuitive UI/UX designs using Figma for both mobile and web portalsFocused on usability, clarity, and visual polish to improve user engagement
2. Created fresh, intuitive UI/UX designs using Figma for both mobile and web portals
3. Focused on usability, clarity, and visual polish to improve user engagement
4. Feature upgrades and integrationsIntegrated external APIs (notably “Front”) to enable dynamic, real-time functionalityDeveloped real-time market data features so users get up-to-date trading alerts and insights
5. Integrated external APIs (notably “Front”) to enable dynamic, real-time functionality
6. Developed real-time market data features so users get up-to-date trading alerts and insights
7. Full-stack developmentBuilt both the mobile app and web portal using ReactJS, React Native, NodeJS, hosted on AWSDelivered a complete codebase so Parrot obtains long-term autonomy to maintain and iterate independently
8. Built both the mobile app and web portal using ReactJS, React Native, NodeJS, hosted on AWS
9. Delivered a complete codebase so Parrot obtains long-term autonomy to maintain and iterate independently

• Created fresh, intuitive UI/UX designs using Figma for both mobile and web portals
• Focused on usability, clarity, and visual polish to improve user engagement

• Integrated external APIs (notably “Front”) to enable dynamic, real-time functionality
• Developed real-time market data features so users get up-to-date trading alerts and insights

• Built both the mobile app and web portal using ReactJS, React Native, NodeJS, hosted on AWS
• Delivered a complete codebase so Parrot obtains long-term autonomy to maintain and iterate independently

The Results

After the redesign and development:

• Parrot gained a modern, unified product available on both web and mobile platforms
• Users enjoy improved UI/UX and real-time alerts/data, enhancing trust and engagement
• Parrot now owns its entire codebase, reducing dependency on external providers for future tweaks
• Overall performance and maintainability improved, setting a solid foundation for future feature expansion

Key Takeaways

• User experience matters: Regularly revisiting UI/UX design keeps an app feeling fresh and builds trust.
• Real-time data is a competitive necessity in finance-related apps—delays or stale data erode value.
• Client autonomy is important: Delivering full codebases and enabling in-house control helps in scalability, maintenance, and cost control.

Conclusion

Parrot Finance’s transformation demonstrates how a strategic blend of design overhaul, feature improvement, and backend modernization can significantly elevate a fintech product. By aligning form and function—design, real-time features, and scalable infrastructure—Parrot is now better positioned to serve its users and evolve in the fast-moving world of social investing.

Introduction

The General Organization for Social Insurance (GOSI) plays a crucial role in Saudi Arabia’s social protection landscape—overseeing insurance coverage for civil, military, and private sector employees. With growing demands for flexibility, GOSI’s existing Identity and Access Management (IAM) system—anchored in office-only access—was holding back performance and accessibility.

Latent stepped in to design and build a solution that would grant secure remote access, improve scalability, and streamline processes.

The Challenge

• GOSI’s IAM setup was office-centric, limiting access from outside premises.
• Remote work and flexible operations were difficult or impossible under existing systems.
• Operational inefficiencies arose from manual or location-bound request processing.
• Scalability concerns as the demand for broader access and modern IAM features increased.

Latent’s Solution

To address these challenges, the Latent team collaborated with GOSI and:

• Developed a mobile app (iOS & Android) integrated with Oracle IAM APIs to enable secure remote access.
• Ensured authentication, identity management, and access control were robust, compliant, and centralized.
• Built a system that scales, so new IAM requirements could be accommodated as GOSI’s use-case scope expanded.

The Results

The implementation delivered measurable improvements:

• Faster Request Processing: Users can submit requests remotely via the mobile platform.
• Operational Efficiency: Reduced bottlenecks and location constraints in workflows.
• Higher Productivity: Staff no longer tied to office locations; time savings and smoother operations.
• Scalability & Compliance: The system can support evolving IAM needs while maintaining regulatory standards.

Conclusion

GOSI’s transformed IAM experience demonstrates how modernization—in both architecture and access—can unlock better productivity, flexibility, and compliance. By integrating mobile access and API-driven identity management, GOSI is now better equipped to serve employees across Saudi Arabia, both in and outside of traditional office settings.

Algo Analytics had built a strong AI foundation for analyzing market sentiment but lacked a clean, intuitive interface to make this power accessible to users. Fabric by Algo Analytics aimed to change that. By partnering with Latent, they developed a web-based portal that pulls in news and social media data, analyzes sentiment, predicts stock trends, and delivers actionable insights through reports—all in real time.

The Client Challenge

• Algo’s AI model offered great predictive capacity, but no appealing interface for users.
• Users struggled to access live signals and trend data in one place.
• Reporting and insights were limited or static; deep analysis required manual effort.
• The product needed a front end that could integrate multiple data streams smoothly and deliver value fast.

Latent’s Solution

• Built a web portal that fetches real-time news & tweets related to stocks through integrated APIs.
• Implemented sentiment analysis to evaluate positivity/negativity of market chatter and calculated prediction trends.
• Added quarterly analysis features and PDF report generation so users can dive deeper.
• Designed UI/UX to be clear and usable—bridging the gap between raw AI output and meaningful insights.

The Results

• Proof of concept (POC) successfully showcased in an enterprise setting, helping secure a contract for full-scale development.
• Fabric now operates as a fully-fledged product, not just a model.
• Client expanded its capability to deliver advanced analytics combined with user-friendly reporting.
• Product turned into a tool that supports faster, more informed investment decisions.

Conclusion

With Fabric by Algo Analytics, Latent turned raw AI into something usable, insightful, and actionable. The project shows how integrating real-time data, sentiment analysis, and accessible reporting transforms an AI model into a product that investors can truly benefit from.
