Built for Calgary

Software for the field and the head office.

We are a software studio in Kelowna, with working hours set around yours. We build field apps, AI agents, blockchains and integrations for companies whose work happens on a lease, a highway or a farm as much as in an office tower. You get a priced range in minutes and a team that runs what it builds.

// the market

What shapes the work here.

Energy runs from here

Many of Canada's oil, gas and pipeline companies keep their head offices in Calgary, with field crews across the province. The software that matters connects the two: tickets, inspections and volumes that start in the field and end in the books.

A hub for moving freight

Rail, highways and the airport make Calgary a distribution centre for Western Canada. Carriers and warehouses here tender, track and bill loads all day, and every manual step costs a margin that is already thin.

Farms and ranches all around

Grain, cattle and the businesses that serve them surround the city. Their tools have to work on a quarter section with one bar of signal and still reconcile with the elevator and the bank.

Alberta's privacy law applies

Private businesses in Alberta handle personal information under the province's Personal Information Protection Act. We plan what is collected, who sees it and where it is kept with that in mind from the start.

// working with us

Example projectOil and gas

Offline field ticket app

An iOS and Android app that captures field tickets, run tickets, hours, equipment and the customer's signature with no signal at all, syncs when a satellite or cell link returns, and turns approved tickets into invoices posted to QuickBooks Online, built on the QuickBooks Online API.

// Example project

Example projectLogistics

Shipper inbox booking agent

An agent that reads each tender, pulls out origin, destination, dates, weights and references, checks them against the customer's lanes and prepares the load in the TMS for a coordinator to approve. It runs on a frontier model through its API, the fastest way to start, because tenders are routine commercial data the provider handles under its business terms.

// questions

What buyers here ask us.

Do you have a Calgary office?

No. We are based in Kelowna and work remotely with every client. Calls are on Teams, and everything we build is visible in your client portal as it happens.

Can your apps work where there is no signal?

Yes. Field apps we build save every entry on the device and sync when a connection returns, so a crew on a remote lease never types anything twice.

How do we get a price?

Open the estimator, describe what you need, and it gives you a range in a few minutes, broken down by build, hosting and support. It uses the same rate card we quote from.
