Overview
Perceive Now gathers data from a wide range of sources, layers AI analysis on top, and turns the result into dashboards decision-makers can actually use.
I worked on both sides of it: backend services in Node.js on AWS, and the frontend in React + Tailwind — including the D3-powered visualizations that make the dense data readable.
What it taught me
This was back in 2022 — a data-and-AI product before the current wave made that ordinary. The real work was the dashboard: page after page of dense statistics and graphs that had to read as insight, not noise. Building those D3-powered visualizations was a crash course in presenting data honestly — picking the right chart for the question, keeping interactions fast on heavy datasets, and knowing when a plain number beats a graph.
