MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion together with "Selected Historical Financial Data" and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those we currently anticipate as a result of many factors, including the factors we describe under "Risk Factors," "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and elsewhere in this prospectus.
Forward Looking Statements
Some of the information in this section contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and "continue," or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they:
· discuss our future expectations; · contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial condition; and · state other "forward-looking" information.
We believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or over which we have no control. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under "Risk Factors," "Business" and elsewhere in this prospectus. See "Risk Factors."
Unless stated otherwise, the words "we," "us," "our," "the Company" or "BAETA" in this prospectus collectively refers to the Company,

Going Concern
The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in
The Company's accumulated operating loss since inception is
The Company will actively pursue its business activities, offer noncash consideration, secure additional or refinance the debt and/or raise equity as a means of financing its operations and meet the credit obligations. If the Company is unable to return to its profitability or obtain necessary financing, it may substantially curtail or terminate its operations or seek other business opportunities through strategic alliances, acquisitions or other arrangements that may dilute the interests of existing stockholders. The company's management is currently seeking additional capital to support operations, but has not received any firm or other commitments from any parties and may or may not, be successful in obtaining capital sufficient to perpetuate the operations of the Company.
Evolving Industry Standards; Rapid Technological Changes
The Company's success in its business will depend in part upon its continued ability to enhance its existing products and services, to introduce new products and services quickly and cost effectively to meet evolving customer needs, to achieve market acceptance for new product and service offerings and to respond to emerging industry standards and other technological changes. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to respond effectively to technological changes or new industry standards. Moreover, there can be no assurance that competitors of the Company will not develop competitive products, or that any such competitive products will not have an adverse effect upon the Company's operating results.
18
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Moreover, management intends to continue to implement "best practices" and other established process improvements in its operations going forward. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in refining, enhancing and developing its operating strategies and systems going forward, that the costs associated with refining, enhancing and developing such strategies and systems will not increase significantly in future periods or that the Company's existing software and technology will not become obsolete as a result of ongoing technological developments in the marketplace.
Sufficiency of Cash Flows
Because current cash balances and projected cash generation from operations are not sufficient to meet the Company's cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, management intends to seek additional equity or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity could result in additional and substantial dilution to the Company's shareholders. A portion of the Company's cash may be used to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products or to obtain the right to use complementary technologies. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, the Company evaluates potential acquisitions of such businesses, products or technologies.
Results of Operations for the fiscal year ended
1. Assets. a. Cash. The Company's cash increased 520% from$3,189 for the fiscal year endedDecember 31, 2009 to$16,600 as ofDecember 31, 2010 .

Total Assets increased 147%, from$232,037 as ofDecember 31, 2009 to$341,483 as ofDecember 31, 2010 primarily as a result of an increase in inventory and the development of our Software Asset. 2. Liabilities. a. Current Liabilities. Current liabilities increased 185% from$293,006 as ofDecember 31, 2009 to$541,855 as ofDecember 31, 2010 .

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company's financial statements included herein were prepared in accordance with
a. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
b. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are considered to be all highly liquid investments purchased with an initial maturity of three (3) months or less.
c. Income Taxes
The Company complies with the provisions of SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes". Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts and are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
d. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of cash equivalents, software development costs, and accrued expenses approximates fair value.
e. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized in accordance with FASB ASC 605, "Revenue Recognition". The Company recognizes revenue when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer pursuant to applicable laws and regulations, including factors such as when there has been evidence of a sale arrangement, delivery has occurred, or service has been rendered, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Evidence of a sales arrangement and a fixed or determinable price can be provided by a purchase order from the customer or from the customer paying for and accepting the product
In the case of product sale, unless indicated differently in a contract between the customer and the Company, the Company assumes delivery to have occurred and title to have passed upon receipt of the product by the customer. Because the Company does not have a history with its customers yet, it assures collectability by recognizing revenue only after payment for product is received.
Concurrent with sale of the product, the customer often purchases access to our web portal for a specified term, often one year. If the customer pays for that access in advance, which is often the case, then the revenue is recognized equally during the period of access purchased.
21
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other than the web portal access, if applicable, the Company has no significant post delivery obligations and its customers do not have any significant refund rights, acceptance terms, discounts, or other terms that serve to reduce the amount recorded relative to the sales price nor to delay the timing of recognition of revenue.
f. Software Development Costs
The Company complies with the provisions of SFAS No. 86 "Accounting for the Costs of
g. Stock Options
The Company complies with the provisions of SFAS No. 123R "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". The company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton closed-form model to value its stock options. Using that model, the Company includes as inputs to the model assumptions for the exercise price of each option, the expected term of each option, the current price of the underlying share, the expected volatility in the price of the underlying share for the expected term of each option, the expected dividends on the underlying share for the expected term of each option, and the risk free rate for the expected term of each option.
The exercise date of each option is included on the contractual agreements with each compensated provider. To estimate the expected term of options, the company used the "simplified" method as allowed in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110. The price of the underlying share is valued at the time of option grant with the most relevant measurement at the time being either current stock price of the company stock in a recent private placement or equity offering or vendor invoice/contract that most closely reflects the value of services performed or product delivered.. Volatility is estimated by using the implied volatility a comparable company that is public, with publicly traded options, that is in a similar industry, with a similar product set, at a stage of life and size as close to the Company as possible for the set of similar companies with publicly traded options. The Company is using implied volatility, because historic volatility for the Company does not exist and is not practicable to obtain from comparable companies. There are no dividends expected to be paid on the underlying shares during the expected term of any options. And, the risk free rate is obtained from the yield on a similar term U.S. Treasury.
h. Stock Compensation
Stock issued for services rendered is valued at the time of service with the most relevant measurement at the time being either current stock price of the company stock in a recent private placement or equity offering or vendor invoice/contract that most closely reflects the value of services performed or product delivered.
i. Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of average costs incurred or estimated net realizable value. Major types of inventories include materials and supplies.
