Turning New Technology into Answers
Nomtek Labs is our R&D unit for turning emerging technology into viable business options. Internal testing lets us recommend new tools for your projects with high confidence.
We focus on carefully chosen niches, connect new tools with real client challenges, and build fast prototypes to prove what’s worth scaling. Not to look innovative.
Labs exists so you can move earlier, with evidence.
We track what’s coming, test it against real-world constraints, and show what actually holds up. That’s how we help you avoid expensive bets and focus on ideas with a real path to impact.

Fibo — AI Math Tutor
2024
We wanted to test whether an AI agent could stand in for a tutor: making one-to-one help more accessible and affordable. The central risk was obvious — AI hallucinations. If the tutor confidently teaches the wrong method, it does more harm than good.
A from-scratch proof of concept: a cross-platform Flutter app, built by a team of two, backed by a NestJS/PostgreSQL/Redis service, with LangChain and OpenAI driving a teaching-first chat.

Taim
2023
We set out to test whether LLM summarization was good enough, cheap enough, and safe enough to underpin a real consumer app.
A cross-platform Flutter app backed by a Fastify (Node.js) service that talks to OpenAI through LangChain, with Helicone for cost monitoring and caching, and a content-moderation step before every summary.

Heart
2023
Cultural institutions are expected — legally and ethically — to be accessible to everyone. In practice, deaf visitors routinely get a lesser experience: a "sensory gap" between what an exhibit offers and what they can actually take in.
An offline-first, tablet-based museum guide that delivers educational videos with subtitles and signed interpretation. Designed with accessibility specialists from day one and shipped as a working MVP in three weeks.

StickiesXR
2023
We wanted to know whether emerging XR hardware could bring back the spatial, physical feel of brainstorming without losing the digital workflow teams already rely on.
An XR whiteboarding app on Qualcomm Snapdragon Spaces. Users place and arrange virtual sticky notes anchored to their real environment, manipulate them with hand gestures, and collaborate in a shared space that syncs to a FigJam workspace in real time.

Octobet
2022
nomtek had run a football tipster league internally since 2014. By 2022 we wanted to see whether that shared ritual could become a Slack bot, hosting a stateful, multi-week, multi-user experience rather than just push notifications.
A Slack bot that ran a full World Cup betting game: bets on matches, top scorer, and tournament winner, private and channel notifications; a points and ranking system, and reminders.

UWB Art Guide
2022
UWB chips shipping in smartphones, promise centimeter-level positioning. We wanted to test, with healthy skepticism, whether that new capability was ready to carry a real indoor-navigation product.
An Android (Kotlin) prototype that locates UWB anchors in real time and notifies the visitor when they enter an exhibit's range, surfacing a description, images, and optional audio.

refined.ar
2021
AR product visualization can help customers buy with more confidence and sellers see fewer returns.
A dual-mode AR sales tool: a WebAR experience that runs in the browser with no install, plus a standalone Unity app for cases that need it. A web admin panel — TypeScript, React, Next.js — lets sellers manage 3D models and generate a shareable link, a QR code, or an embeddable "Show in AR" button for any ecommerce site.

Remote Assist App
2021
Phone and chat support force the customer to describe a malfunction verbally — slow, error-prone, and frustrating. Wanted to test if the AR and real-time-video layers could be made to work together reliably across platforms.
A cross-platform prototype that lets expert sees the user's space and can annotate it: draw in their own color and place 3D objects on detected surfaces. Pairing is anonymous — no login, email, or phone number; users just share a code.

AR Model Showcase
2021
We wanted to test whether a consumer smartphone could deliver high-fidelity, manipulable 3D product visualization to boost sales conversation — and whether AR could be a shared, multi-person experience rather than a solo one.
A Unity-built AR app for Android and iOS that renders detailed 3D models in the user's real space, with animations and dynamic interactions to show how things work.

Instead of debating ideas for months, we build just enough to test them.
Weak ideas get cut early. Strong ones become prototypes that show what’s possible, what it costs, and how it could scale.
That saves time, reduces risk, and gives decision-makers something solid to work with.
$5K and 5 days gets you a functioning PoC.
Concrete enough to decide.
