Your software and app development partner in Toronto

Mapletech Labs is a custom software development company working with Toronto businesses — building web platforms, mobile apps and AI systems for sectors like fintech, banking, media & entertainment. You get senior engineers, a fixed scope and price, and software built properly the first time.

Senior engineers, directly

You work with senior engineers from day one, never a sales layer in front of a junior team.

Fixed scope, fixed price

Every engagement is scoped and priced up front, so there are no open-ended hours or surprises.

Your data stays in Canada

Canadian data residency by default, with your IP protected under Canadian law.

You own everything we build

All the code, infrastructure and intellectual property we produce is yours to keep.

How we work

One process, five stages, fixed milestones. You always know what is happening and what it costs.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    1–2 weeks

    We map the business problem, the users and the constraints, then agree what success looks like in numbers.

  2. 02

    Design

    2–4 weeks

    Flows, interface design and a clickable prototype, so the hard decisions are settled before engineering starts.

  3. 03

    Build

    8–16 weeks

    Two-week sprints against a fixed scope. You see working software every fortnight, not a status report.

  4. 04

    Launch

    1–2 weeks

    Load testing, security review, migration and a rollout plan — with someone from the build team on call.

  5. 05

    Scale

    Ongoing

    Monitoring, iteration and a support SLA. Most clients keep building with us long after go-live.
