CURRENT / COMPLETED APPLICATION

Available from IshaNova Labs

CheckMate V1 is completed and frozen.

CHECKMATE • NEXT STAGE

What’s Next?

Scale CheckMate beyond V1.

The next stage focuses on real-world usage, refinement and preparing CheckMate for a broader global audience.

Planned direction

  • Real-world usage, bug fixing and usability polish on actual devices
  • English-first global polish and localization readiness
  • Better date, time and time-zone handling, with accessibility improvements
  • App Store and Play Store discoverability and product presentation
  • Future platform expansion, including possible iOS support

OPTICAL, VISION & DOCUMENT INTELLIGENCE PLATFORM

Vision

CURRENT STATUSIn Development & Testing

Vision is an independently developed Optical, Vision and Document Intelligence platform, currently in development and testing. It is designed to turn visual and document content into meaningful, machine-readable information through image processing, text recognition, document understanding and intelligent task handling.

  • Image and document processing: preparation and processing of PDFs, images and other document formats, including text documents, spreadsheets and embedded images.
  • Text and layout understanding: multilingual OCR and text recognition across characters, words, rows, paragraphs/blocks and tables, with machine-readable code recognition where applicable.
  • Information understanding: key-value and structured information extraction, table relationships and calculation-aware document interpretation, with coordinates and source-location mapping.
  • Intelligent task handling: understanding request purpose and context to guide model-driven processing and routing, with standard structured output for downstream use.
  • Modular architecture: independently evolving processing capabilities, designed with performance, model reuse and resource-conscious execution in mind.

PROJECT & DELIVERY MANAGEMENT PLATFORM

Black & White

CURRENT STATUSIn Development & Testing

Black & White is a desktop-first project and delivery management system designed as a practical alternative for teams that need clearer backlog, execution, audit and delivery visibility without turning the product into a source-code hosting platform.

  • Manages a delivery hierarchy from Project → Epic → User Story → Functionality → Task, with bugs linked to execution work.
  • Controls active work using task states and effort tracking, including the principle that a user has only one active task at a time.
  • Supports external/UAT/production ticketing with incident, action and change/review workflows and SLA-oriented triage.
  • Provides daily monitoring, discussion/audit history, version visibility, release planning and reporting for opened/closed/critical bugs and delivery progress.
  • Includes a dynamic entity framework so administrators can introduce additional work-item types without redesigning the application.
  • Future analytics/agent capabilities are intended to assist backlog creation and delivery analysis, while the core platform remains usable without embedding an AI model.
