Welcome to Tech Tuesdays!
This column is dedicated to showcasing businesses and products that have made significant contributions to the tech industry and are pushing the boundaries of technology to shape the future.
With technology becoming an increasingly integral part of our lives and businesses across all industries going digital, there is a growing need for IT skills.
The goal is to bridge the talent gap and allow people from lower socio-economic backgrounds who may not have higher education to compete.
This week, we’re focusing on low-code solutions that can be game-changers for developers and organisations. These solutions can help reduce the time and effort spent on manual coding processes, allowing developers to focus on solving business challenges and providing faster solutions.
Whether you’re a developer looking for ways to streamline your workflow, or an organisation seeking to improve efficiency, low-code solutions may be the answer you’re looking for.
So, let’s dive in!
Pendula
Pendula is an Australian scale-up organisation that has built the world’s first proactive retention platform. Businesses from across industries, including telecommunications, finance, education, health and energy, rely on Pendula to drive strategies to upsell and cross-sell to their client bases.
Pendula empowers marketing and sales teams to create better automated workflows and conversations that increase lifetime value and engage customers at the ‘moments of truth’.
Pendula’s no-code platform design allows modular flexibility for any workflow or use case while still being simple and intuitive enough for a non-technical user to build conversational journeys.
Customers on the platform have been able to ideate a journey in the morning as a team and test campaigns to customers by the afternoon. The latest version of Pendula, launched this month, includes a ‘Power Up’ enhancement that enriches customer data with existing platforms like CoreLogic and Weather apps.

Studio, UiPath
Studio by UiPath is a new no-code/low-code automation development tool that lets non-technical workers build their automation through a simple drag-and-drop interface. It provides user-friendly templates, documentation, and access to a free UiPath Academy course for additional support.
It suits business users who want to get started with secure, low-risk automation. Automation can also be shared with colleagues and other business users to extend the benefits to other business units.
Additionally, Studio lets IT teams access process automation created by business users and adapt them for distribution to the entire workforce, with all automation under one centralised governance model.
The studio is particularly beneficial for organisations that have multiple business units but small budgets for large-scale digital transformation, such as the public sector, retail, manufacturing and the finance industry.

SnapLogic
The current business landscape is unpredictable, putting pressure on budgets and resources — and, ultimately, on employees. SnapLogic’s latest innovation, Iris AI, uses artificial intelligence to automate highly repetitive, low-level development tasks, eliminating the data and application integration backlog that stifles most technology initiatives.
The result is a revolutionary technology that applies machine learning (ML) to enterprise integration – dramatically changing the economics of cloud, analytics, and digital transformation initiatives. Iris AI makes integration powerful and simple.
Iris is the industry’s first software to apply artificial intelligence for enterprise integration, using advanced algorithms to learn from millions of metadata elements and billions of data flow via the SnapLogic Intelligent Integration Platform. It then applies that learning to improve the speed and quality of integrations across data, applications, and business processes.
