Strategy First

Start With the Business Problem You Want to Solve

Do you need to find information across documents, process incoming files or add AI features to an existing product? Start with one workflow and define what a useful result looks like.

We can then assess the available data, technical requirements and development approach before you commit to a larger build.

Document Search

Find and synthesize information across approved files.

File Processing

Extract and organize data from incoming documents.

Product Integration

Embed AI features directly into existing business tools.

PIPEDA · LAW 25 · BILL C-27 / AIDA

Building for Canada's AI Regulatory Framework

Canada combines federal privacy laws, GDPR-grade provincial law in Quebec, and federal AI directives. We design compliance into data pipelines, consent mechanisms, and model architectures from day one.

01Federal Privacy

PIPEDA Federal Privacy & Data Minimization

Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act governs private-sector AI data handling across Canada. AI architectures enforce strict data minimization during model training/inference, meaningful consent mechanisms, and user access/correction capabilities.

Applies To:Enterprise SaaSLLM AppsCustomer AI
Impact Level:
Mandatory
02Quebec Law 25

Quebec Law 25 Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA)

Law 25 mandates formal Privacy Impact Assessments before deploying AI systems handling Quebec personal data. Requires unbundled consent for automated profiling, automated decision notification rights, and 72-hour CAI breach reporting.

Applies To:Quebec UsersPIA AuditsRight-to-Explanation
Impact Level:
Mandatory
03Emerging AIDA

Bill C-27 & Artificial Intelligence & Data Act (AIDA)

Canada’s emerging federal AI legislation signals mandatory impact assessments for high-impact AI systems, bias detection and mitigation standards, human oversight protocols, and heavy non-compliance penalties.

Applies To:High-Impact AIBias AuditsHuman-in-the-Loop
Impact Level:
High
04Federal Directive

Directive on Automated Decision-Making (Federal AI)

Applies to federal institutions using automated systems for administrative decisions. Requires impact classification (Impact Levels 1 to 4), Algorithm Impact Assessments (AIA), and human decision-maker review for consequential outcomes.

Applies To:Government AIAIA ReportsImpact Level 1-4

Plan Data Access and Controls Before Development

AI development starts with understanding your information and how it can be used. Define which data the application can access, who can use it and which providers will process it.

Your project scope should address hosting, user permissions, logging, human review and output evaluation. Any sector-specific or legal requirements should be agreed with your organisation’s advisers before implementation.

Questions About Starting Your AI Project

Have questions about scoping, feasibility, integrations, or handover? Here are common questions we answer before development begins.

The approach depends on your platform, integration access and the feature you want to add. Share your current setup so we can assess feasibility.

Start with a recurring task where you can define a useful result. Data availability, task frequency and evaluation criteria help determine whether it is suitable for a pilot.

The main factors include data preparation, integrations, functionality, evaluation, deployment and ongoing support. These should be defined in the project scope.

Yes. Share your requirements during discovery so the proposed architecture can be assessed against your processing, hosting and access needs.

The project proposal should confirm the main contact, review schedule and agreed overlap hours for your team’s location.

Code ownership, handover, warranty and ongoing support should be stated in the agreement before development begins.
