WHAT WE DO

From a practical problem to a focused product.

01

Product Development

We turn operational problems and product ideas into focused web products, from requirements and design through development and validation.

02

Workflow Tools

We build small applications for repetitive tasks and complex calculations, with clear inputs and outputs that fit the way people work.

03

AI-assisted Development

We use AI to support planning, implementation, and review. People define the scope, make product decisions, and validate the results.

PRODUCTS

Practical software for specific jobs.

Explore what each product does, who it is for, and where to find it.

English-language access is currently available for RepoBD and the US version of Portion Weight Match. Other listed products currently use Japanese interfaces or operate for the Japanese market.

01 / npm package

RepoBD

  • Encrypted, one-time transfer
  • Repository binding

Secret handoffs need the correct repository context. RepoBD checks the receiving Git repository before retrieving a secret, helping developers avoid applying it to the wrong project.

Published on npm. Product site and documentation in English.

02 / B2B web product

BQmenu

  • From a hotel request to a reusable product
  • Scheduled banquet menu publishing

A hotel approached Nortelia with a problem in its banquet menu workflow. That request became the starting point for a reusable B2B product: hotel-prepared menu PDFs published by venue and time, through a fixed QR code for each venue.

Current product site in Japanese. Contact Nortelia about availability outside Japan.

03 / Browser application

Portion Weight Match

  • Variable item count
  • Minimum weight
  • Processing entirely in your browser

For seafood processing and other products with varying item weights. Create as many packs as possible at or above a minimum weight, then minimize weight above that minimum for the same pack count. Export the combinations as Excel work orders.

English US version available: item weights in oz, minimum pack weight in lb.

Open US version (oz/lb)

04 / Packing application

Pack Optimizer

  • Fixed item count
  • Minimum and maximum weight

For packing jobs that specify both a piece count and a weight range, including kombu (kelp) processing. For example, combine 6 pieces into a 40–43 g pack, or 5 pieces into a 100–110 g pack, maximizing the number of valid packs.

Current application UI in Japanese.

05 / NFC/QR card + web service

Rescue Pet Card

  • Physical card and web service
  • For cats and dogs

A wallet card connects to pet details and emergency contacts through an NFC tap or QR scan. Nortelia designs, develops, and operates the card and its web service as one product.

Currently operated for Japan. Product site in Japanese.

HOW WE WORK

A clear scope. A working product.

  1. Understand the problem

    Look at the workflow, constraints, and decisions people face.

  2. Start with a small prototype

    Make the core idea concrete enough to test.

  3. Build the product

    Develop the product around a clear scope and practical requirements.

  4. Validate and refine

    Check the results against the requirements and the intended workflow.

BUILT WITH AI-ASSISTED DEVELOPMENT

This site itself was built through AI-assisted development — from structure and copy to implementation, review, and deployment.

Nortelia uses the same approach across its own products: people define the problem, scope, and product decisions, while AI supports implementation and iteration.

ABOUT

Nortelia

Nortelia is based in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan. Our work spans seafood-related business and the design, development, and operation of our own software products. That practical background shapes how we approach software: understand the work, define a manageable scope, and build something useful.
