Montréal app development

French-first web and mobile apps.

A Montréal app is in French before it is anything else, and it treats personal information the way Law 25 asks. We build web and mobile apps that start there, from the first screen to the hosting, and we keep them running after launch.

// why it differs here

What matters for this work here.

French that reads as French

Screens are written in Quebec French from the start, with the dates, numbers, money and the word clavardage where your customers expect it, not translated from English at the end.

Privacy at its strictest by default

Tracking off until consent, the least data collected, a clear person in charge, and a record of every request, as Law 25 expects.

Data kept in Quebec

Name Canada in the estimator and we can host in Montréal, with backups and logs in the same region. The estimate shows the provider and the cost.

~/apps

Web and mobile apps

Web apps, iOS and Android apps, customer portals and back offices that your team runs every day, in web2 or web3.

~/cto

Fractional CTO and due diligence

Senior technical leadership when you need it: architecture reviews, roadmaps, hiring help, and code and infrastructure checks before you invest or buy.

Rescue and modernization

Stalled builds taken over, unstable systems made stable, and legacy software moved to a modern stack without stopping your business.

~/design

Product design and UX

User research, prototypes, design systems and accessibility audits, so your product is easy to use before a line of it is built.

~/i18n

Localization and support setup

// questions

What buyers here ask us.

Web app or mobile app first?

Usually a web app that works well on a phone. A store app comes next when you need the camera, offline storage or notifications that a browser does badly.
