Re_Tera Engineering Notes

Live product: getretera.com and the iPhone and iPad app. The source code is private by choice. These notes make the system's product boundaries and release discipline inspectable without disclosing source, prompts, secrets, customer data, or security-sensitive implementation detail.

Re_Tera helps homeowners and renters read an insurance policy before a loss. It organizes policy investigation, home inventory, and renewal questions around the user's own records. It is not a broker, agent, public adjuster, or law firm, and does not provide legal advice.

What is shipped

  • A native iPhone and iPad product, with a marketing site and headless API/backend rather than a browser-app substitute.
  • Policy-PDF intake, investigation chat, a policy health score, and home-inventory documentation and export.
  • On-device document OCR supplements pages that the server cannot parse. The user's policy remains the source authority.
  • A billing architecture built around Apple in-app purchase through RevenueCat and a server-side AI workflow using the OpenAI Responses API.

How the product reasons

Re_Tera does not treat an LLM as the product's only source of judgment. The private codebase separates domain calculations and validation from model calls, then combines policy text, user records, and state-specific reference material in the investigation flow. The result is a product that can state its operating boundary clearly: it helps a user understand and document questions, but it does not make coverage determinations or act on the user's behalf.

Build and release evidence

  • The first native iOS commit was 2026-06-05. TestFlight followed within five days and the original App Store release followed on 2026-06-26.
  • In the 2026-08-27 review, 2,213 web tests passed. One generated-artifact write was blocked by the review environment. The iOS suite discovered 751 tests, with eight video-writer tests failing under the restricted macOS host. These are qualified local results, not a claim of continuous CI health.
  • A real Apple upload failure, ITMS-90111, led to a scripted release path with nine blocking checks before upload. See dated verification and release gates.

Design

The product uses a civic-archival visual system built around readable records. Insurance documents are evidence, so the interface aims to feel closer to a usable filing than a generic software dashboard.

What these notes do not disclose

This repository intentionally excludes source code, model prompts, credentials, internal architecture diagrams, infrastructure configuration, security-control detail, user data, and private business operations.
