Release of the Finance tab for companies.

semanticFinder

Semantic#

You can enter a short description of the type of company you want to find, in any language (e.g. 'medical products manufacturers').
Our technologies are based on information related to industry sectors, identified by the official descriptions of the NAICS and NACE codes.
Therefore, we may not have information on very specific product categories. If we do not have sufficient information, we will still try to give you an answer in line with your needs based on our data.
The accuracy of the results is subject to interpretation. The results are listed according to relevance to your search.

Description#

This release of Matchplat Explore has as its core the inclusion of the new People page, now available to everyone in the platform.
The new page replicates the appearance of the interface dedicated to Companies and has access to functionality very similar to the latter.

peoplePage

Dev Stuff 💻#

Modified many components and added a SidebarFilter with shared logics between Companies and People pages.
Added a new version of Crono.
Bug fixing tracked on GitHub.

Sidebar#

The new Sidebar includes features already present in the current version, but made more intuitive by the new apply filters and clean filters buttons.

In addition to the new buttons, we have made the Sidebar more visible to the user by having it open from the moment the user enters the People and Companies pages.

The Sidebar is a single component and shares filters between the two pages, thus making the user have a much more pleasant browsing and search experience.

The dropdown actually present on the table, from which it was previously possible to select groups or views such as: Favorites, Hidden, etc. has been removed. Currently all selections are made available to the user through the Sidebar.

People Icon in Map#

We have added a new icon in the map for companies that contain at least one People.
This makes it easier to work from the map.

peopleMap

Groups#

We have slightly modified the approach with groups, making greater use of the presence of the Sidebar.

Icon#

It is now possible to filter by groups only through the Sidebar and Dashboard. A new button (more in line with the new graphics) has been added for creating and editing groups.

groupIcon

Infinite Groups#

The ability to create an infinite number of groups has been added.

The color of the new group will be generated automatically, but it will be possible to change its RGB with three simple slides, in case you want to customize it.

groupIcon

Add to a new Group#

It is now possible to add companies to a group that does not yet exist.

Once the companies have been selected, the user will be given the option of creating a group that will automatically include the new companies within it.

newGroupIcon newGroupModal

Current Page#

Because the Companies and People are paginated similarly, we have added a description of the current position in the platform, which also includes the filters applied.

It will be much easier for the user to understand what they are currently looking at.

Map Navigation#

It has been noted several times that the table and map view is actually difficult to use because by moving the mouse over a company, the map moves automatically.
We have thought of adding a button that performs the same function to help use the table without the map moving when It's not needed.

mapButtonNavigation

Booleans#

You can now save and load Boolean Filters.
It's also possible to use Booleans from the filter's sidebar.

Release Description#

The Matchplat dictionary is a dictionary that allows you to enter:

  • company name
  • multiple tokens
  • multiple codes

And have as output:

  • Naics
  • Nace
  • HS
  • Sic
  • Matchplat code
  • Related tokens (for tokens only)

In this way the end user can study the target market by browsing the results given by the dictionary.

The Dictionary is currently in Beta. Its features are constantly under modification and it may be offline or not working for short or long periods of time.

Input field#

By inserting data inside the input field, you're forced to select one of the dictionary suggestions. You can't enter random company name or tokens or codes.
You can choose a suggestion by clicking on it from the dropdown or by accepting the first suggestion you'll see behind the text you're inserting with "Enter" or "Right Arrow"

Company name#

You can insert a single company name and the dictionary will give you back that company codes.

Codes#

By inserting the codes (one or more) you will have in output every single code entered and all its relative ones present in the ictionary. For example, by inserting a NACE code, the relative NAICS, SIC, HS and Matchplat Code will be displayed if present.

Tokens#

It is possible to insert single words like "wood" or more consecutive words like "wood furniture" to have in output all the codes that contain all the words inserted. In the event that even just one word entered is not present in any code, together with the others, then there will be no results.

Codes or Tokens mode#

You can search tokens or codes but not tokens and codes together.

Selection Box#

For tokens and codes a selection box will appear in the home page right side of the screen when you start to add codes or tokens from the input field. Inside of that you'll see all the codes or tokens you added to your "search list".
By clicking the "Search listed" button, a new search will be made with all the data in your "Selection Box".

Notes#

By clicking on the note icon near the code itself, this will be saved inside your notes for future reference.

Result Page#

Most codes in the result page are clickable, and by clicking on them a new search with that code will be executed. For example by clicking a NAICS relative to the NACE you inserted in input, you can start a new search with that NAICS as input. These kind of results are inside the Selectable boxes, if they're present.

This release collects a very large number of changes on both the front-end and the back-end.
It introduces numerous features and almost completely changes the code previously used in Explore.

Dev Stuff 💻#

Front-end#

Major changes to the entire project file and folder structure in the front-end.
Changes to the whole UI to align it with new requests.
Modification of the structure of the internal states of the project, with a complete rewrite of all the data logics and graphQl calls for the whole project.

Back-end#

GraphQl moved from .net to node with storage migration on Elasticsearch.
The Matchy engine rewritten in .net with scalable and horizontal architecture.
RabbitMQ (for exchanging messages between back-end services) and Docker Swarm were also introduced.

People#

The placeholder structure of the People feature has been added.
This means that at the moment it is possible to view the new feature but with placeholder data that does not reflect what will be seen in the release phase.
People is present within the company modal:
View the staff of a company; save an employee as a favorite or hide him; view favorite or hidden employees.
Overview page:
Check all the favourite people in your project; manage the favourites

Codes management#

Front-end NACE codes will always be shown with a "." after the second digit, with the standard structure "xx.xx".
It is not possible anymore to insert NACE like "xxxx" but only like "xx.xx" in the new creation form.

Dictionary Imports#

It is possible to import only NAICS and NACE

Companies Table#

By inserting filters in the table (company name, city), the respective column labels are colored with the secondary color.
