What it does

Built like our client work: rules you can read, sources you can check

Line items, not totals

Receipt OCR reads every row: item, size and price. Spending is split by what was actually bought, not by store.

Price Watch

The same item, cheaper somewhere else, from the user’s own receipts. No crowd-sourced prices, no ads.

Your basket over time

Tracks what a household’s repeat items cost across 90-day windows and says when it is too early to tell.

14 languages, including right-to-left

Full RTL layout, not mirrored afterthoughts. Every string ships in all languages or not at all.

Optional family sharing

One household ledger when people want it. No account is required to use the app.

Local-first

Receipts and totals live on the device. Nothing is uploaded unless the user chooses to share.

Why a GIS firm builds consumer software

The same discipline, different data

A receipt is a messy dataset: inconsistent names, units and formats that have to be normalized before they can be compared over time. That is the same work we do with utility records and model inputs.

Shipping our own product keeps the team sharp on mobile development, automated testing and release engineering, and those skills carry straight into client field apps.
