Starting prices cover a defined scope. Final pricing is confirmed in your written proposal. Applicable taxes are additional.

02 / Built around the way you work

Good work starts with
the right partnership.

A focused build, an ongoing team, or something entirely new. We’ll recommend the model that fits.

01

Fixed-Scope Delivery

A defined specification delivered against milestones with explicit acceptance criteria. You know what you are getting before work begins.

Made for

MVPs, bounded builds, and work where the requirements are already clear.

02

Dedicated Team

Embedded engineers on retained capacity, working inside your roadmap and rituals. Context stays with the product between releases.

Made for

Full-product build-outs and long-running platforms that need sustained ownership.

03

R&D Partnership

Exploratory work structured around staged checkpoints. Each stage produces a prototype, a benchmark, or a validated architecture — then a decision.

Made for

Hardware-adjacent work, simulation, and novel domains where the answer is not known up front.

04

Nonprofit Program

A structured, reduced-cost program for registered nonprofits, charities, and community organizations. Same engineering standard; different commercial structure.

Made for

Registered nonprofits and community organizations.

03 / From idea to underway

A clear path forward.

No guesswork about what happens next.
Here’s how we turn a conversation into a plan.

  1. 01

    Pick a service

    Choose the work from the catalog. Rough is fine — a package pre-fills the project form so we start on the right floor.

  2. 02

    Technical discovery

    A working session with engineers, not a sales call. We map constraints, risks, and what done looks like.

  3. 03

    Written proposal

    Scope, starting amount versus quoted amount, engagement model, and an architecture outline — in writing.

  4. 04

    Kickoff

    Agreement signed, repository created, first milestone underway. The proposal becomes the plan of record.

04 / A little more clarity

Good questions.
Straight answers.

Talk with our engineers

*Ownership transfers on completion of the agreed terms.

Are these the prices I will actually pay?

They are starting prices in CAD for a scoped production slice of that service — the smallest serious engagement we will take on. A WhatsApp-class messenger, a full Mission Control, or a complete product is quoted as one engagement, not a stack of line items. The written proposal is the number that matters.

Why publish starting prices at all?

So you can tell whether we are in the same conversation. A sprite kit and a 10-layer HDI board are not the same problem. Starting amounts let you filter. They are not a rate card, and they are not a promise that every project of that type costs that amount.

What currency is this, and are taxes included?

Canadian dollars. Applicable taxes (including HST in Ontario) are added on invoices. We invoice in CAD unless the proposal says otherwise.

How quickly can I get a proposal?

After the discovery call we prepare a written proposal with an architecture outline. Turnaround depends on the problem, but well-defined work typically follows shortly after discovery. We would rather send an accurate proposal than a fast guess.

Can we mix services in one engagement?

Yes. A game with original art, an MVP with a realtime layer, a board with firmware and a fleet dashboard — those ship as one proposal when they are one product. Tell us which services apply; we will scope them together.

Are radios, camera tracking, and encryption the same product?

No. AI tracking is cameras and sensors: people, plates, watchlist, vitals and fall. Security communications is 4G PTT, the command floor, and personnel GPS. End-to-end encryption is the path the radio rides when the server must not listen. Many programs buy two or three. They are priced as separate starting amounts on this page and quoted as one engagement when they are one floor.

Can we switch engagement models mid-project?

Yes. Many engagements begin as fixed-scope deliveries and transition to a dedicated team once the platform is live. Switching is a structured conversation, not a renegotiation from scratch — the working relationship and codebase carry over.

Who owns the intellectual property?

You do. Code, designs, documentation, and infrastructure configuration produced under an engagement belong to the client on completion of the agreed terms. We build on that principle by default.

Is an NDA standard?

Yes. We operate NDA-by-default. Our work ships under strict NDAs, and we never publish client names, case studies, or project details. Discretion is part of the engagement, not an add-on.

Do you work with nonprofits?

Yes. We run a structured nonprofit program with reduced-cost engagements for registered nonprofits, charities, and community organizations. The engineering standard is the same; the commercial structure is adjusted.
