Taking projects for Q4 2026

AI integration from people who shipped it, not pitched it.

We are not an AI consultancy that read the deck. We build production software — quoting engines, MRP, time clocks — and we wired AI into all of it. Now we do it inside your business.

Most AI projects fail for a boring reason

They start with the model instead of the job. Someone buys a licence, runs a pilot on clean sample data, presents a slide deck, and six months later the shop is still retyping the same numbers into the same spreadsheet.

We come at it the other way around. Find the work that is costing you hours, prove a fix in weeks, then make it boring and reliable. That is the same order we used building our own products, and those products now carry $63.4M in quoted work and 14,936 work orders through real operations.

What we have actually put into production

Every item below is running right now inside real businesses, not in a demo:

Where we look first in your business

These are the patterns that pay for themselves fastest, in our experience:

Packages & pricing

Fixed scope. Fixed price. No discovery treadmill.

Every engagement starts with the audit, because we will not quote a build before we understand the work.

How it goes

Four steps, no mystery

01

Walk the floor

We sit with the people doing the work and time the jobs that hurt. No workshops, no maturity assessments — just watching how the business actually runs.

02

Rank by payback

You get a list ordered by hours saved per dollar spent, including the items where AI is the wrong tool and something simpler wins.

03

Ship the top one

One workflow, built against your real data, in front of your staff inside a few weeks. Corrected from how they actually use it.

04

Make it boring

Monitoring, docs, training, and a runbook so it keeps working when we are not around. Then we pick the next one.

Why us

Three things most AI consultants cannot say

🏭

We ship products, not decks

FabFlow, All Metal Quotes, Attend and more are live, paid, and used daily. AI integration is us doing for you what we already did for ourselves.

🔒

Your data can stay home

We run open-weight models on our own GPUs and can do the same on yours. Nothing has to leave your building for a third party to train on.

We will talk you out of it

If a spreadsheet fix beats a model, that is what the audit says. We would rather lose the build than sell you a project that quietly fails.

Questions

Straight answers

What does an AI integration actually cost?

An AI Audit is $1,500 fixed and tells you what is worth automating and what is not. Pilot builds start at $4,500 and full integrations at $12,000. Ongoing support is $1,200 per month. Hourly work is $150/hr. You get a fixed number before anything is built.

How long before we see something working?

The audit takes two weeks. A pilot lands in three to five weeks. We do not run six-month discovery phases — the first version goes in front of your staff fast, and gets corrected from there.

Do you send our data to OpenAI?

Only if you want us to. We run open-weight models on hardware we control, so quotes, drawings, customer lists and payroll data can stay entirely inside your building. Where a hosted model is genuinely better, we say so and you decide.

Will this replace my staff?

No, and we will say so plainly if that is what you are hoping for. The wins are in the work nobody wants to do: retyping the same numbers, chasing paperwork, filing documents, hunting for a heat number. Your experienced people get their day back.

What if AI is the wrong answer for my problem?

Then the audit says that. Roughly half the bottlenecks we look at are fixed by a database index, a form change, or deleting a spreadsheet — not by a model. We would rather tell you that for $1,500 than sell you an AI project that fails.

Do you work with companies outside Waterloo Region?

Yes. On-site work covers Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, Guelph and the surrounding towns. Everything else runs remotely across Ontario and Canada.
