Vlamel Technologies LLC · San Jose
Software for complex data and real-world decisions.
We build web applications, data integrations, geospatial tools, scientific software, and document retrieval systems. The work has a scope, milestones, acceptance criteria, tests, documentation, and a handover.
-
01 · DeZirteer
U-Pb analysis, from a published workflow to the browser and ChatGPT.
- 02 · Hunterizer Boundaries, dates, and rules for what may be legal to hunt.
- 03 · Kataba Technical documents, with the answer tied to a source.

Selected work
Three projects a buyer can inspect.
-
DeZirteer · Vlamel Technologies LLC
Scientific analysis across Python, the web, and ChatGPT.
Software for detrital zircon U-Pb data: import a reduced table, filter it, calculate discordance and a best age, then plot and export. Vlad Powerman is founder and chief developer. The workflow is published in Chemical Geology (2021).

Hunterizer · Artemida Publishing, Inc.
What may be legal to hunt at a place and a date.
A mobile product that reads geographic boundaries, dates, species, and regulations together. Vlad Powerman co-founded it and led technical development. Press and a 2026 StateScoop finalist listing are on the case study.

Kataba
Answers that stay attached to the source passage.
Retrieval over geoscience and other technical documents. A question returns an answer linked to the document, the page, and the passage. Vlad Powerman is developing it with a small geoscience and software team.

Capabilities
What the projects demonstrate.
-
Web applications and workflow software
Browser software that follows a procedure a person can finish. The DeZirteer web application imports a dataset, applies filters, calculates, plots, and exports. Hunterizer puts a place-and-date question on a phone.
-
Data integration
Hunterizer joins geographic boundaries, dates, species, and regulatory text so a query can return one answer. DeZirteer imports reduced analytical tables from Iolite or Glitter.
-
Geospatial applications and decision tools
Hunterizer reads a location against boundaries and the rules that apply there. Developed geospatial analysis tools to help investigative journalists identify possible military installations. This work is not public.
-
Scientific computation and visualization
DeZirteer calculates discordance and a best age, and draws concordia diagrams and density estimates. The 2021 Chemical Geology paper documents that scientific workflow. The web application and the ChatGPT connector came later.
-
Document retrieval and RAG
Kataba processes technical documents and retrieves passages that can support an answer. The answer stays linked to the document, the page, and the passage.
-
MCP services and AI tool integration
DeZirteer exposes the same U-Pb tools through an MCP service, so ChatGPT can call the analysis. The conversation does not replace the calculation.
Delivery
From an agreed workflow to a handover.
-
Define the workflow, scope, and acceptance criteria.
The users, the procedure, what is in and out of scope, and the checks that decide acceptance.
-
Build and review working increments.
Software that runs, reviewed while change is still practical.
-
Test against agreed requirements.
The acceptance criteria, agreed by both parties, applied to the build.
-
Deliver documentation and handover.
The software, the documentation needed to operate and change it, and a transfer to the people receiving it.
Accountable for delivery
Vlad Powerman
Owner and CEO of Vlamel Technologies LLC. He builds the software and leads the engagement. Engagements are principal-led; specialists are brought in when the work requires them.
He holds a PhD in geology, which is why a workflow involving isotopic data, maps, or a technical report can be specified closely enough to build.
Prior employment: engineering program management at Apple, and software and data program management at Bloom Energy. Apple and Bloom Energy are previous employers.
