Our Vision

Besides “general knowledge” of the World Wide Web, we will in future use "personal knowledge" of our own actions in order to be even more successful. Communication plays a major role in this context. Target analysis and presentation of this knowledge will be a crucial component concerning our further development. Nowadays communication is frequently accompanied by the phenomenon of "communication overflow". Nevertheless this phenomenon is temporary. The right tools will enable us to access unexpected possibilities in order to utilize our past.

In this sense we do not think of the continuously increasing volume of communication as a problem in and of itself, but as a great chance to gain knowledge.

The Chilibase® idea

Today, communication - and especially e-mail - is an important aspect of our work and takes up a great deal of our time. Many people are overwhelmed by the flood of communication. However, the availability of previous communication presents an incredible advantage. A sense of this importance has partially been eroded, mainly due to today’s available tools (mail clients), which cannot cope with this size of volume.

However, since the first mail clients appeared 15 years ago, hardly anything has changed in terms of basic handling. This design does not do justice to today’s “e-mail overflow”. In daily life we try to defend ourselves by using plenty of helping devices. Files and rules help us cope with increasing demands on our time. Nevertheless in unexpected life we will be totally surprised by real demands, resulting in a loss of time and loss of the overall picture. Crucial information will be found too late or even never be found again. Problems may occur with tracing back situations.

In sorting and searching for e-mails and creating and shifting files in our mail clients, one important feature is missing: Communication is constantly taking place between one or more persons. Persons do not think in terms of files and draws but of participants.

This crucial approach is used by Chilibase® and directly transported into Outlook®.
You will always be in a position to see actual and relevant person with the personal panel. Therefore, your working style in Outlook® gains a totally new point of view. Finally persons are the focal point of interest. “Overview-on-demand” due to person-orientated working is made possible for you by our product Chilibase®. With the help of our developed ChiliRank® technology you are immediately able to have greater overview, transparency, and security, as well as better tracing – and additional searching succeeds even faster. Therefore, you should be in a position to regain use of your intuition in searching to obtain greater satisfaction from your communication.
