Accepting new projects

We build, connect, and automate
the systems your business runs on.

Most businesses run across a mix of spreadsheets, inboxes, industry software, and systems that were never designed to work together. The result is manual handoffs, duplicated work, weak visibility, and too much operational knowledge living in people's heads.

FoundryOS fixes that at the system level. We build custom software when the right tool doesn't exist, connect the systems worth keeping, and integrate governed AI where it can take real work off your team.

Platforms we've built.

Real projects. Real businesses. Each one turned scattered tools, manual handoffs, and operational gaps into a system built around the way the business actually works.

Operations Platform

Cleaning Company Operations Hub

Commercial Cleaning Company

A cleaning company running on group texts and spreadsheets. We built a full operations platform — contractor scheduling, GPS time clock, automated invoicing with email open tracking, compliance management, and an AI receipt scanner that auto-fills expense reports from a phone photo.

Community Platform

Community Food Network

Community Food Bank

A food bank needed to track donations, manage inventory, coordinate distribution events, and stay compliant with CRA, PIPEDA, and NS food safety regulations — all while being simple enough for volunteers. Check-ins, donor management with tax receipts, and real-time inventory tracking.

Practice Management OS

FoundryOS — Internal Platform

We built this to run our own practice. AI-powered daily scheduling with priority scoring and SLA awareness, pipeline management, time-based billing, finance with HST/ITC tracking, support tickets, deliverables with attestation workflow, and a full AI governance layer with approval queues and authority registers.

Services

Build. Connect. Integrate AI.

Three ways to improve the operation, depending on what you already have and what the business actually needs.

⬡

Build from Scratch

Custom operational software built around your business, for when off-the-shelf tools don't fit. Real engineering, not a template with plugins: dashboards, internal tools, client portals, and full operational platforms.

Connect Your Systems

Keep the systems that already work. We connect your apps, data, and workflows so the operation works as one coordinated system. QuickBooks, your CRM, your ERP, or other existing software can remain authoritative while we build the layer that ties them together.

◈

Integrate Operational AI

Give AI controlled access to real workflows so it can prepare or perform work within the permissions, approvals, and authority you define. It can read live operational context, prepare or take permitted actions, route exceptions, update connected systems, and escalate anything that requires human authority.

Process

How we work.

Fast, focused, and collaborative. Most projects ship in 2–4 weeks.

01

Understand

We map how your business actually works: where the data lives, who owns each decision, and where the current setup breaks down.

→
02

Design

We define the operating model: what to build, what to connect, what to automate, and what authority AI should have, if any.

→
03

Build & Connect

We build what's missing and connect what stays. Working software appears early, so you can test the real workflow as the system takes shape.

→
04

Launch & Run

Deployed, documented, and running in production. You own the system. FoundryOS can continue hosting, maintaining, and evolving it as the operation changes.

Off the shelf

Don't need custom? Two products are ready today.

Not every problem needs a custom build. If you run crews in the field, or run ads that send people to your website, we've already built it — and both are live.

CrewOS

Crew & contractor operations

Scheduling, timeclock, compliance, invoicing, expenses, quotes, and contractor management — a full web dashboard for the office, plus a mobile app built for crews in the field. Pick an industry template at signup and you're running in minutes.

Lens

Ad-to-landing-page message match

Your ads are targeted. Your website isn't. Lens rewrites your site copy for each ad campaign, reading the audience straight from the ad's UTM link. You pick, edit or write every line, and nothing goes live without your say-so. A holdback control group then shows exactly which campaigns are lifting conversions.

A Facebook ad for the Hollow Pines Music Festival: two days of live music in the woods, October 17-18, Baddeck, Cape Breton, with a Get Tickets button
Taps “Get Tickets”
2Without Lens: they land here
The brewery homepage without Lens: the headline reads Brewed Deep in the Cape Breton Highlands, with nothing about the festival
3With Lens: same link, matched page
The same homepage with Lens: the headline reads Hollow Pines Music Festival, October 17-18, and the intro describes the festival

Walk in the Woods Brewing is the demo business from the Lens walkthrough. The setup and the page swap are real.
