Custom Software Development · Toronto

Custom Software Development Company in Toronto, built to ship.

Off-the-shelf software stops fitting at some point. That is where we come in. Our team designs and builds custom software from the architecture up to a running product, and every line of it belongs to you when we are done. Toronto (EST) is 10.5 hours behind India (IST), so the live overlap is limited to your early morning and our evening, which is why we run an async-first workflow backed by a dedicated project manager who keeps your day moving even while our main build hours are offline for you.

Rated 4.9 stars across 24+ client projectsYou own 100% of the code and IP. NDA on request.

Toronto market

Toronto is Canada's largest tech talent market and ranked third in North America in CBRE's 2025 Scoring Tech Talent report, behind only the San Francisco Bay Area and Seattle. With over 3,000 active startups, a deep base in fintech, AI and healthtech, and tech hiring that surged about 22 percent year over year in 2025, demand for custom software and mobile apps far outpaces local supply. Geminate Solutions gives Toronto founders and enterprises a dependable remote product team to build and ship without the local hiring squeeze.

Local signal: Toronto ranked third in North America in CBRE's 2025 Scoring Tech Talent report and added 42,900 tech jobs between 2021 and 2024, the most of any Canadian market.

What we build

Custom Software Development Company for Toronto teams, end to end

Full product builds

We take it from the first idea and the architecture decisions through to a product that is live and in use.

Modernization and rebuilds

Got a fragile legacy system? We replace it piece by piece, without the lights going out while we work.

Cloud and DevOps

Infrastructure that scales, CI/CD that does not flake, and monitoring so you see trouble early.

Integrations and automation

We connect the software to the tools your business already lives in, then automate the dull parts.

You own everything

Full code ownership. No lock-in, and a clean handover when you want to take it in-house.

Your time zone

Toronto (EST) is 10.5 hours behind India (IST), so the live overlap is limited to your early morning and our evening, which is why we run an async-first workflow backed by a dedicated project manager who keeps your day moving even while our main build hours are offline for you.

Your IP, your code

Your IP belongs to you from day one, we operate under NDA, and our English-fluent team is structured around async communication and a dedicated PM so Toronto clients stay in control despite the time difference.

Priced in CAD

Transparent, milestone-based, scoped on a free call. No hidden costs and no lock-in.

Compliance in Canada

How does Custom Software Development Company stay compliant with PIPEDA / Law 25 in Toronto?

Toronto companies build under Canada's PIPEDA, with Quebec's Law 25 adding stricter consent and residency rules, overseen by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. We design every custom software development engagement to respect those rules from day one, not as a checklist bolted on at the end. PIPEDA expects comparable protection when data is handled by a third party, so contracts and processing terms make our obligations explicit and auditable.

Who regulates you

the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. Quebec's Law 25 carries some of the toughest consent and breach rules in North America, which we apply when you serve Quebec users.

Where your data lives

You pick the hosting region. When residency rules or a Canada contract require it, we deploy inside your jurisdiction and you hold the cloud accounts.

What you own

100% of the source code and IP, transferred under contract, with an NDA and a data processing agreement signed before anything is shared.

Proof we can do this at scale: the products we have shipped run at 250K+ daily active users and have handled 10M+ requests per minute, across 50+ products rated 4.9 stars over 24+ client projects. Security and data handling are part of how we build, not an afterthought.

FAQ

Custom Software Development Company in Toronto, answered

How do you handle the big time gap between Toronto and India?

We are honest that the live overlap is short, mostly your early morning and our evening, so we run an async-first process. A dedicated project manager owns daily updates, written handoffs and a fixed live call window, which means you get clear progress every morning rather than chasing replies across time zones.

Is offshore development with Geminate Solutions cheaper than hiring developers in Toronto?

Toronto's developer market is the most competitive in Canada, so an offshore product partner generally lowers your build cost while still delivering senior-level work. We confirm the exact cost on a discovery call tied to your scope and timeline instead of quoting a flat figure.

How do you handle PIPEDA / Law 25 and data protection for Toronto clients?

Toronto businesses fall under Canada's PIPEDA, with Quebec's Law 25 adding stricter consent and residency rules, overseen by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. PIPEDA expects comparable protection when data is handled by a third party, so contracts and processing terms make our obligations explicit and auditable. Before any data is shared we sign an NDA and a data processing agreement, and Quebec's Law 25 carries some of the toughest consent and breach rules in North America, which we apply when you serve Quebec users.

Where will our data and code be hosted if we build with you from Toronto?

You choose the region. We default to a cloud setup that satisfies PIPEDA / Law 25 obligations, and when residency rules or a Canada contract require it, we host inside your jurisdiction. You keep full ownership of the source code, the data, and the infrastructure accounts at all times.

How much does Custom Software Development Company cost in Toronto?

Every custom software development project is scoped on a free call rather than sold as a fixed package, and most engagements start with a paid pilot sprint so you see the work before you commit. You get a clear number in CAD before anything starts.

Do we own the code?

Yes, completely. The code, the project, and the content are handed to you. You hold the keys, not us. We sign an NDA before you share anything.

How long does it take?

Most builds go live in two to four weeks. Larger products with a custom backend or migration take longer, and you get a firm timeline before any work begins.
