Who we are
SmartRDI was founded as a spin-off of MobyLab at the University Politehnica of Bucharest, a research group specialising in pervasive services and mobile computing. We pair that academic rigour with commercial delivery, building systems that are grounded in solid research and shipped as real-world products.
From federated data architectures and computer vision pipelines to IoT monitoring and decentralised applications, we operate at the edge where technology and real problems meet.
Work with us01: Research
Every reliable solution starts with facts. We build on careful analysis and investigation, not assumptions.
02: Development
We deliver high-quality software grounded in real-world constraints, and we finish what we start.
03: Innovation
We stay a step ahead of the market, building solutions for tomorrow's problems alongside today's.
What we do
Mobile
Native iOS and Android apps in Swift and Kotlin, with Kotlin and Compose Multiplatform where a shared codebase saves time and budget.
Web & Backend
From first prototype to production: web apps and services on TypeScript with Vue, React, Next and Nuxt, backed by Python and Node.
Applied AI
Models that make it out of the lab: computer vision, machine learning and agentic systems, from research to MLOps. Our TrialsNet detector reached 99.2% accuracy.
Engineering
Systems designed to grow: clean, distributed architectures on Docker, Kubernetes and Kafka that your team can own and extend.
Hardware & IoT
Connected devices that work in the field: Raspberry Pi edge nodes, wearables and Bluetooth networks that keep running when connectivity doesn't. Proven on dairy farms.
Web3
Smart contracts in Solidity and CosmWasm and the decentralised apps around them, developed and tested with Hardhat.
