Solvis provides customized devices, kiosks, and a customer feedback and experience management platform.
Solvis’ story has a unique start: In the late 90s, a customer voiced dissatisfaction with a toy shop in Curitiba. Initially dismissed as gossip, the complaint prompted the CEO of Solvis, Leonardo Vilas Boas Badotti, the former toy shop owner, to reflect on customer satisfaction.
These led to crucial questions: How could they promptly listen to customers? How to measure and evaluate customer satisfaction and service? How could it be improved?
These questions lead to development of a gadget capable of measuring customer satisfaction during this journey as a touchpoint of the experience.
After initial iterations, the first final gadget, named “Psiu,” launched in 2001. Similar to “Psst” or “Hey” in English, Psiu is an onomatopoeic expression used in Brazil to grab attention. It displayed questions on paper with emoticon push buttons. Customer responses were stored on a memory card and uploaded to a computer on a manual daily routine. Although a local bestseller, Psiu had untapped potential, requiring enhanced security and automated data transfer.
Solvis collaborated with academia, marketers, and engineers, partnering with the Federal University of Technology of Paraná and receiving support from FINEP, a Federal public foundation. This collaboration birthed a kiosk with an LCD screen and GPRS, transmitting data over the cellular network.
Solvis´s solution, developed entirely in-house, covers circuit boards, firmware to the web server, and a data collection platform.
