Software research & development

Engineering intelligent software for a connected future

Baretronics investigates, prototypes and commercialises its own software across artificial intelligence, intelligent automation and the systems that run on them. Our first product, Spendington, is an AI personal finance app live on iOS and Android.

01 — Who we are

We build what we discover.

Baretronics is a software research organisation that carries its own ideas from an open question to shipped software. We do not hand research off to someone else to build — we write the code and own the technology, end to end.

  • Research-driven

    Every product begins as a research question, grounded in rigorous investigation before a line of code or a prototype is built.

  • Future-ready

    We design for the problems that are arriving, not just the ones already here — systems built to scale and adapt as demand shifts.

  • Human-centred

    Technology should serve the person at the other end. We design for understandability and reliability, not novelty for its own sake.

02 — What we work on

Core research areas

  • Software engineering

    The centre of what we build: applications, APIs, distributed systems and data platforms, engineered for reliability at scale and taken all the way to production.

  • Artificial intelligence

    Machine learning applied to forecasting, natural language, computer vision and decision systems — built into working software, with attention to reliability.

  • Intelligent automation

    Software that senses its environment and acts on it, reducing manual intervention and downtime across the systems it runs.

  • Energy systems software

    Monitoring, forecasting and control software for distributed generation and storage — the layer that makes energy systems observable and responsive.

We don't hand research off to someone else to build. We build it ourselves, and we take it to market.

03 — How we work

From research to real-world deployment

Our development pipeline carries an idea from open question to a technology that works outside the lab. Each stage has to earn its way into the next.

  1. Applied research

    Identify problems worth solving and study them properly — surveying the state of the art and modelling the system before committing to build.

  2. Prototyping

    Findings become working software — the smallest thing that can prove or disprove the idea.

  3. Engineering & validation

    Prototypes are re-engineered for reliability and scale, then tested against the conditions they will actually meet.

  4. Commercialisation

    Validated technology becomes a product. We take our own research to market and keep developing it once it is in real use.

04 — What we've built

Research that reached the market

We develop and own our products outright. Spendington, the first, is live on the App Store and Google Play.

Spendington

AI personal finance tracking.

Spendington takes the manual work out of tracking money. Rather than typing transactions into a spreadsheet, people photograph a receipt or say aloud what they spent, and the app extracts the detail, categorises it and files it. It is built for individuals and small businesses who want to understand where their money goes without keeping a ledger by hand.

The product is the commercial output of our own research into applied machine learning: document understanding for receipt extraction, speech and natural language for spoken entry, and classification for categorising transactions reliably enough that a person does not have to check every one.

Spendington app screens showing a monthly spending summary, budget categories and recent transactions
  • Receipt scanning

    Point a camera at any receipt. The model reads each item, amount and date, then categorises the transaction without further input.

  • Voice entry

    Say an expense in ordinary language and the app parses the amount, the merchant and the category from the sentence.

  • Spending assistant

    Ask questions about your own spending in plain language and get an answer drawn from your transaction history.

  • Category budgets

    Set a budget per category and track progress against it in real time, on a light or dark interface.

Availability

Let's build something together.

We work with research partners, technical collaborators and organisations who want to develop something new. If you have a problem worth researching, we would like to hear about it.
