Software Development Company in Quebec

We build software for companies in Quebec and Montréal — one of the world’s leading AI and gaming hubs — with Law 25 privacy and French-language requirements designed in, not bolted on.

Why Quebec businesses build custom software

Montréal is a global centre for artificial intelligence and deep learning, home to one of the largest concentrations of AI research anywhere, and to a games industry that ranks among the biggest in the world. Around them sit aerospace, biotech and a deep creative-industries sector. It is a market that produces genuinely advanced software and expects partners who can keep up.

Building for Quebec also means building for two things other provinces do not impose the same way: Law 25, the province’s strict modernised privacy regime, and French-language requirements that reach into product interfaces and customer communication. We treat both as design inputs from the first decision, so a Quebec product is compliant and properly bilingual by construction rather than by retrofit.

Industries we build for in Quebec

The sectors that drive Quebec's economy, each with software problems too specific for off-the-shelf tools.

AI & machine learning

Applied AI, LLM integration and machine-learning systems for Montréal’s deep AI ecosystem — in production, not just research.

Gaming & interactive

Tools, platforms and real-time systems for one of the world’s largest game-development sectors.

Aerospace

Operations, maintenance and data platforms for Quebec’s aerospace manufacturers and their supply chains.

Biotech & life sciences

Data, compliance and research platforms for Montréal’s biotech and life-sciences sector.

Creative industries

Content, media and platform work for Quebec’s creative and cultural technology companies.

SaaS & startups

Fixed-price MVPs and multi-tenant products, built bilingual and Law 25-ready from day one.

Built for Quebec’s rules, funded by Quebec’s programmes

Compliance and funding are design inputs here, not afterthoughts.

Privacy — Quebec Law 25

Quebec’s Law 25 is the strictest privacy regime in Canada, with explicit consent, privacy-by-default, breach reporting and data-portability obligations. We design to it from the first decision, and account for French-language requirements that reach into product interfaces and user communication.

Federal SR&ED

The federal SR&ED credit funds eligible software R&D. We keep the technical history and documentation a claim needs.

Quebec e-business & multimedia credits

Quebec offers among the most generous digital tax programmes in the country, including the tax credit for the development of e-business (CDAE) and the multimedia production credit. Where the work qualifies, we structure it so the eligible portion is clear.

Why Quebec companies choose Mapletech Labs

The parts that decide whether a project actually lands — local to Quebec, not generic.

  • Built for Law 25

    Quebec’s modernised privacy law is strict and enforced; we design consent, retention and breach handling to meet it from the start.

  • Bilingual by construction

    French-language requirements are a design input, so a Quebec product ships properly bilingual rather than translated as an afterthought.

  • AI in production

    We put machine learning into production systems, which fits a market that leads the world in applied AI.
