The platform

Six products in market. Not a slide deck.

Every pattern we sell in custom work - tenant isolation, consent ledgers, reasoning audit, residency by region - is already running in something we operate ourselves.

AVA

Clinical communications

Clinical messaging that behaves like infrastructure: every thread retained, every access logged, and PHI kept inside the tenant your compliance team already signed off on.

NEO

AI agents

Agents that run where your data already lives. Retrieval scoped to the tenant, tools in a sandbox, every reasoning step recorded.

Tenant-bound RAGTool sandboxingReasoning auditBring your own LLM

Zentra

HR & credentialing

For teams whose staffing is an audit surface: licences that expire, shifts that need someone qualified, payroll that must reconcile.

Credential expiryRoster enginePIPEDA PII

MyDart

Marketing automation

Consent-first campaigns. Every send traceable to a recorded opt-in; PHI never crosses into a third-party marketing cloud.

WeGuard

Posture monitoring

The questions auditors actually ask: what is exposed, where PHI sits, how today's config maps to your frameworks.

Trackme

Field operations

Attendance for teams that do not sit at desks: geo-fenced clock-in, central rosters, hours exported straight into payroll.

None of these fit? We build the one that does.

The same team behind these six products takes on custom engagements - fixed-fee when the scope is known, embedded when it is not.

Why North America

Built where the data has to stay - on either side of the border.

Canadian-rooted infrastructure with a U.S. delivery footprint. Pick your region of record; we keep the controls, residency and on-call story consistent across both.

ca-central-1

Canada residencyPHIPA / PIPEDA tenants land in Canadian regions. Backups never cross the border unless your contract demands it.

us-east-1

U.S. residencyHIPAA-aligned tenants run in US-East / US-West with BAAs in place. Same code, same controls, separate data plane.

MSA
