Your business data is scattered.
We build the infrastructure to unify it.
Data pipelines, custom software, hardware integrations — engineered for how your business actually operates. Based in North Georgia, serving the greater Atlanta area.
Most businesses have the data. What they don't have is the infrastructure.
Client records live in one app, scheduling in another, financials in a spreadsheet someone built three years ago. None of it talks to each other. As you grow, these gaps turn into real cost — missed opportunities, duplicated work, decisions made on incomplete information.
We fix that. Seabolt Systems builds the data pipelines, custom software, and hardware integrations that connect your operations into a single system. Three divisions handle the work: Solutions Engineering builds production software and data infrastructure. The Foundry Lab handles hardware and embedded systems. The Applied Research Group tackles problems where off-the-shelf tools fall short.
Solutions Engineering
The software and data layer that runs your business.
This is our primary division. We build the databases, pipelines, and application logic that replace manual processes with systems that actually work. If your team is still copy-pasting between platforms or pulling reports by hand, this is where we start.
Data Infrastructure
Connect fragmented databases, POS systems, and software platforms into one source of truth.
- Database design & migrations
- API integrations & custom middleware
- Automated ETL/ELT pipelines
- Operational dashboards
Intelligent Systems
Systems that watch your data, flag problems, and handle decisions your team shouldn't have to make manually.
- Workflow automation
- Anomaly detection
- Search & retrieval platforms
- Predictive analytics
Foundry Lab
Where software meets physical hardware.
Led by Hugh Pruitt, the Foundry Lab handles embedded computing, industrial sensor networks, and edge intelligence. Custom tracking systems, physical prototypes for niche workflows, hardware that talks to your software stack. If the problem lives in the physical world, this is the team that builds the bridge.
Applied Research Group
When the tool doesn't exist, we build it.
ARG is our internal R&D arm, co-led by the executive team. This is where we work on problems that commercial software can't touch — custom machine learning architectures, domain-specific models trained on real operational data, edge-cloud hybrid deployments. The research here feeds directly into client work. It's not a lab for the sake of having one; it's how we stay ahead of problems our clients haven't hit yet.

The Team
The people behind the systems.
Bret Seabolt
Founder & Principal Engineer
Background in computer science and data science, currently pursuing a graduate degree in computer science with a specialization in machine learning at a nationally top-ranked program. Has built production data pipelines, cloud migration systems, and intelligent automation platforms across the full stack — from enterprise data warehouses to edge-AI inference on embedded hardware. Leads Solutions Engineering and the company's technical direction.
Toby Penner
Executive Officer, Commercial Operations
Background in digital marketing with hands-on experience in category management, marketing operations, and brand strategy across companies ranging from national distributors to boutique agencies. Certified in Google Analytics and skilled across the Adobe Creative Suite, email strategy, and social media. Leads Seabolt Systems' commercial engine: brand positioning, client acquisition, and growth strategy.
Hugh Pruitt
Executive Officer, Foundry Lab
Mechanical engineering background at a globally top-ranked program, with active research in AI-driven generative design and parametric modeling. Has designed precision components for surgical instrumentation, built and tested RFID tracking systems for industrial deployment, and contributed to the engineering of the first student-built afterburner to carry a UAV to supersonic flight. Leads the Foundry Lab — Seabolt Systems' hardware and cyber-physical systems division.
How It Works
How we work.
We do our homework before we pitch anything. Here's what that looks like.
Research
We study your business, your industry, and your competitors before we ever sit down together. By the time we meet, we already have a clear picture of where you stand and where the opportunities are.
Discovery
We meet with you, ask questions, and get into the details of your day-to-day operations. What's working, what's not, what takes too long, what falls through the cracks.
Plan & Build
We put together a proposal backed by real data, not guesswork. Once you approve it, we build the system using modern platforms with proper safeguards from day one.
Deploy & Support
We deploy your system, train your team, and stick around. Monthly check-ins, ongoing maintenance, and improvements as your business changes. We don't hand off and disappear.
Get in Touch
Let's talk about your business.
Not sure where to start? That's fine. We'll have a short conversation about how your business runs and tell you honestly whether we can help. No commitment, no jargon.
