We love a challenge and are constantly diving into new areas of product and technological development. We take the steps to stay up-to-date and educated on the latest and greatest tech, so we can deliver innovation in all areas that you need!

See exactly what kind of projects we've previously tackled in our project portfolio.

We are a one-stop-shop specializing in the development of products that are ready for market. We develop your product end-to-end with our multidisciplinary team. There is no need to shop around, manage different contractors, freelancers, suppliers, etc. We handle everything you need locally in Hamilton, ON, Canada. 

It depends on the task at hand. All of our projects are fixed fee in nature. We use an hourly rate to calculate the cost and present it to you upfront before you sign the deal.

The only exception to this are our Retainer Services, where all efforts beyond the 10hrs/month included in the subscription are billed at the hourly rate. 

Costs for various projects have ranged anywhere between $2,500 and $500,000CAD.

Learn more about our pricing.

Again, this depends on the task at hand, but we promise to start within two weeks of you placing an order.

Our projects generally run anywhere between 2 weeks and 6 months.

We know that in today's everchanging world of business, time to market is everything to be successful, to compete, and to disrupt the industry. Using our ultra-lean development strategy we promise that we will deliver your product or solution as fast as we possibly can so that you can get back to what matters most. 

YOU! You (our customer) owns every part of the project we develop. The only exception is you would not own the rights to any open source tools that we use to develop your product.
