## About

Red Owl IT is a UK software consultancy in Bath specialising in the Microsoft technology stack. Since 2013, we've designed and built .NET, Blazor, Azure and AI systems for small and mid-sized businesses going through digital transformation.

Our team is senior, UK-based, and made up of ex-Microsoft engineers with more than a decade of commercial experience and 50+ shipped projects. We don't use offshore handoff and we don't put junior teams on client work — every engagement is led by senior engineers from start to finish.

What we build:

- Line-of-business systems that replace spreadsheets, paper and ageing legacy tools
- Customer-facing web applications on Blazor and ASP.NET Core
- Cross-platform mobile apps (iOS and Android) using .NET MAUI
- Cloud platforms architected for Azure, with cost-aware design from day one
- AI features — chatbots, retrieval-augmented search, agent workflows — using Azure OpenAI
- APIs and integrations, from NHS Spine to payment rails

How we engage:

- 1. Initial conversations — we tell you honestly whether we're the right team
- 2. Stakeholder workshop — everyone in the room, requirements drawn out
- 3. Revised scope — signed off before a line of code
- 4. Architecture and design — the expensive decisions made deliberately
- 5. First demo, then user testing, then iterate
- 6. Ongoing delivery through to handover

We work across regulated sectors including NHS healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, food and logistics, and legal/FinTech. We help SMEs reclaim up to 33% of development costs through HMRC R&D tax credits, documenting qualifying work as we go.

We've also fully embraced AI-assisted development internally, which has cut build costs and shortened delivery timelines for our clients.
