Independent software & AI studio

Spectrix.

Something you need built — an idea to explore, a job to make easier, a business ready for its next step. Software and AI, put to work.

Built around the way you work.Meet Spectrix
Software development & AI / Built around you

Your idea.
Let’s build it.

You might arrive with a spec, or just a suspicion that the current way is costing you. Either is enough to start — no technical brief required.

We work out what’s actually needed, build it, and keep it running afterwards. Small fixes welcome. Ambitious builds too.

What we offer

What can we build for you?

01 / Create something new

Websites, apps & digital products

Something new for your customers, your team, or an idea that won’t leave you alone. A straightforward site or a full platform — designed around what it has to do, not a template.

02 / Make work easier

Business tools & connected systems

The spreadsheet everyone dreads, the copy-paste between systems, the off-the-shelf tool that almost fits. We cut out manual steps, connect what you already use, or build the thing nobody sells.

03 / Go further with your data

AI & machine learning

Put your own information to work: private knowledge search, automation of fiddly work, or a model for a specialist problem — up to custom machine-learning and language-model builds.

04 / Learn what works for you

AI coaching & consultancy

One-hour sessions on tools such as Claude and Codex, built around your actual work. You leave with better workflows and reusable skills — plus the notes to keep using them.

A practical example / AI consultancy

From a useful prompt to a reusable skill

Turn anonymised meeting notes into decisions and next actions. Build a workshop from material you already have. Write the instructions for reviewing the result and handing the work over.

We build and test those skills against your real work, keeping private source material separate from the reusable instructions. One small task first, compare the results, then improve it together.

A few examples of the work

See what that looks like

01 / MANTISApplied machine learning / Available to pilot

Less to sort.
More to act on.

A maintenance team doesn’t need another stream of alarms. MANTIS checks operating context and groups repeated alerts into an explained queue for an engineer to review.

Historically evaluated on a year of Tata Steel Shotton data. Available for a scoped pilot.

02 / AI knowledge basesKnowledge management / Client delivery

Your knowledge.
More useful.

AI knowledge management and smart search built on the information a business already holds. We’ve delivered knowledge tools for several companies, with access and deployment shaped around each team.

Some work is covered by NDAs. This public example uses sample documents, not confidential client material.

Scattered documents. One searchable collection.

AskKate / Document search

Find the document.
Get back to work.

Smart search combines the words you use with what you mean. Keyword search is there when you know what to look for. Results take you back to the original files—not a generated chatbot answer.

Regulatory research / Private prototype

An answer you can
trace to its source.

A research tool that brings together registered publications, supporting passages and source versions. It keeps source-backed answers distinct from interpretation or an unsourced best effort.

Evidence gaps stay visible. A prototype for review, not automated compliance advice. Organisation and internal material remain private.

03 / CommunityLetVenue booking platform / Ongoing client partnership

The platform behind
local venue booking.

CommunityLet lets customers discover local venues, compare spaces and book with confidence — sports halls, classrooms, pitches and meeting rooms, all in one place. Spectrix develops the platform itself: discovery and search, booking and payments, venue and vendor tooling, and messaging that keeps every conversation attached to its booking.

A live client marketplace, improved feature by feature — from search to booking, inbox to payout.

Behind the scenes / Operational software

The tools that keep
the day moving.

Not every useful build faces the public. Some of our work is the software behind a business’s working day.

Audit & action tracking

Digital checks, assigned follow-up actions and a shared view of what still needs doing.

Dashboards & scheduled reporting

Bring operational information into one view and prepare recurring data exports without repeating the same manual steps.

General examples of development experience. Client identities, operational data and private interfaces are not shown.

From first conversation to everyday use

Start with
one good change.

You don’t need a transformation programme. You need a useful first step and a way to know it worked.

Let’s find yours ↗
01

Talk it through

Show us the awkward bit — what happens now, who it affects, and what a better version would be worth.

02

Test a small piece

A paid discovery or pilot answers the open questions before a bigger build. We agree what success looks like first.

03

Build what earns its place

Clear scope, working software, regular check-ins. You see it taking shape and try it with the people who’ll actually use it.

04

Keep it working

Hosting, maintenance and improvements as things change. A technical partner for the next bit too.

Best when there’s a real problem to own.

A repeatable process, someone who can decide, and room for a small first project. If an off-the-shelf tool would do the job, we’ll say so. We’re not a large delivery team, and we don’t build AI to make high-stakes decisions unsupervised.

getting in the way.

A few lines about the process, the tools and the part that’s frustrating. That’s plenty to start with.
