A software studio in Toronto, Canada

We build the software your company runs on.

Foundry Systems designs and builds websites, web applications, mobile apps and AI-powered products for businesses that need working software, not a deck about software. Small senior team, fixed scopes, and products we have shipped ourselves.

What we build

Every engagement is scoped in writing before work starts, with a fixed price or a capped budget. You get a named lead, weekly demos, and code you own outright.

Websites & marketing sites

Fast, accessible, search-friendly sites on modern static or headless stacks. From a one-page launch site to a multi-language corporate site with a CMS your team can run without us.

Web applications

Customer portals, internal tools, dashboards and SaaS products. We build on proven frameworks (React, Next.js, Node, Python) with authentication, billing and reporting handled properly from day one.

Mobile apps

iOS and Android apps, native or cross-platform depending on what the product actually needs. We handle App Store and Google Play submission, review and release management.

AI-powered products

Document understanding, review automation, assistants and search built on current large language models, with evaluation, guardrails and cost controls so the feature holds up in production, not just in a demo.

Product strategy & MVP scoping

Before a line of code: user research, scope cutting and a build plan with real estimates. We tell you what not to build. Backed by a founding team with strategy-consulting and operating experience.

Support & ongoing development

Monthly retainers for maintenance, security updates, new features and on-call support once your product is live. No lock-in: you can take the codebase anywhere.

Products we have built

We run our own products alongside client work. It keeps us honest about what it takes to launch, support and grow software.

AI for construction and architecture

Redline

AI-powered architectural plan review and construction-document quality control. Redline reads drawing sets, flags inconsistencies and code issues, and produces reviewer-ready markups in minutes rather than days.

How a project runs

Four stages, each with a clear deliverable, so you always know where the money went and what comes next.

01

Scope

A short discovery sprint ending in a written scope, wireframes and a fixed quote. Typically one to two weeks.

02

Build

Weekly demos on a staging environment. You see working software every week, not a status report.

03

Launch

Hosting, domains, app-store submission, analytics and monitoring set up and documented. We hand over the keys.

04

Support

Optional retainer for fixes, improvements and new features, with response times agreed up front.
