Canadian software studio

We build the software a business runs on.

Cedar Bridge Systems is a Canadian software studio. We design and build whole products end to end, from a property management platform for landlords to native iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch apps and custom ecommerce back offices.

A few things we have shipped

What we have built

A small studio with a real shelf of products.

Five shipped products across web SaaS, ecommerce, native Apple apps, and media. Each one is designed, built, and maintained in house.

SaaS · Property management Live

Keystead

An all in one platform for Canadian landlords: leases, rent and arrears, a real double-entry ledger, Ontario LTB notices, the standard lease, bank reconciliation, and self-serve tenant portals. Built to get the money right, and to stay secure.

More on the way

We are always building. New products are in the works, and we take on a small amount of client work each year.

Work with us
How we work

Full-stack, in house, and built to last.

We take products from the database schema to the last pixel, and we stay on to keep them dependable long after launch.

Built in Canada

Designed and hosted here, with Canadian data residency and rules taken seriously.

Web and native

From PHP and SQL back ends to Swift apps for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, one team the whole way.

Privacy by default

We collect only what a product needs, and we do not build businesses on tracking or ads.

Yours to own

Software that can be self-hosted and data you can export in full. No lock-in.

What we can do together

Three kinds of work we know inside out, because we have shipped each one for ourselves.

Build your product

A web app or SaaS product taken from idea to paying customers: the data model, billing, security, hosting, and the unglamorous details that make it dependable.

We did it for ourselves with Keystead.

Put it on iPhone and Apple Watch

Native Swift apps for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, from the first sketch to the App Store listing, with the platform features used properly.

Proof on the shelf: SolonasPlayer and SiteHaul In:Out.

Run your back office

Quotes, orders, invoices, Stripe payments, and admin screens your staff actually enjoy, tucked safely behind your public site.

Running today at Kernels & Cones and Butter Street Bakery.

Who we are

Cedar Bridge Systems is a small Canadian software studio that works the old way: the people who design the software also write it, host it, and answer for it. Our products run on hardware we manage ourselves, in Canada, and every line of code is written in house.

We build for ourselves first. Keystead exists because we manage rental property and wanted software that gets the money right, down to the last cent of a ledger. SolonasPlayer exists because we wanted our own music, on our own NAS, playing from a wrist. Adventure Channel Canada is our own YouTube channel, so its site and group-ride system get tested on real riders every season. The back offices we build run real shops every day. Nothing on this site is a concept piece.

Alongside our own products we take on a small amount of client work each year, for businesses that want dependable software they own outright. Client builds get the same treatment as our own: careful data models, privacy by default, and someone who still picks up years after launch.
