Research first. Publish what we learn.

GtroT Research is the research arm of GtroT. We study the problems behind the technology we build - from Georgian-language systems to infrastructure, measurement and applied computing.

Philosophy

We don’t research for decoration.

Research at GtroT exists to reduce uncertainty. Sometimes it tells us how to build something. Sometimes it tells us not to build it. Sometimes it produces a paper, dataset or method that is useful far beyond the original question.

Some questions belong in academia, too.

We are interested in working with students, researchers and academic institutions on problems where practical engineering and academic research can strengthen each other.
