Custom development

Custom software,
built to your spec.

When the product catalog doesn't fit, we build it. Bespoke web apps, internal tools, integrations, and AI features — engineered end-to-end by the same Canadian team that ships Maxor's own platforms. You own the IP.

What we build

From internal tools to production platforms.

One team, full stack, audit-grade by default. We scope tightly, ship in increments, and hand over artifacts you can run without us.

Web & internal apps

Dashboards, portals, back-office and operations tools — built on the same stack as Maxor Connect.

API & system integrations

Wire your existing software together — ERPs, CRMs, third-party APIs — with contracts that don't silently drift.

AI features

Chat, agents, structured extraction, embeddings — with the Heisen deterministic posture so outputs stay verifiable.

Data pipelines

Ingestion, transformation, reporting. Compression-first, observable, and reproducible end-to-end.

Workflow automation

Replace manual back-office steps with deterministic, auditable automations — not opaque scripts.

Heisen embed (optional)

Drop our deterministic compute substrate into a fresh build or your existing third-party software via API. Your call.

Where this fits

Build it, buy it, or integrate it.

Three ways to get software with Maxor. Custom development is the from-scratch path — when nothing off-the-shelf fits and you need it owned outright.

Buy it — ready-made

Products

Deploy a proven platform from our 10-product suite. The fastest path when something off-the-shelf already fits the job.

Build it — net-new

Custom software

We build software that doesn't exist yet — from scratch, to your exact spec, owned outright. When nothing off-the-shelf fits.

You're here
Integrate it — existing

Implementation

Make existing software — ours or a third party's — work in your environment, then optionally run it for you under SLA.

Why Maxor

Engineered like the software we own.

The same engineering standard behind our product line applies to every custom build — no shortcuts because it's a one-off.

Same team, no offshore

Canadian engineers from discovery to ship. The team that scopes the work delivers it.

Audit-grade by default

Tests, CI/CD discipline, STRIDE threat model on anything touching auth or data — shipped as standard, not an upsell.

You own the IP

Code, artifacts, and documentation delivered to you. Sovereign by default — no lock-in, no hostage data.

Bilingual delivery

Specs, UI, and documentation in English + Français, written by native speakers — never machine-translated.

The stack

Modern, boring where it should be.

We pick proven tools over novelty. The same stack behind our own production platforms — so what we build for you is built the way we build for ourselves.

Frontend

Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind — accessible, fast, server-rendered by default.

Backend & APIs

Node and Python services with typed, versioned contracts — no silent schema drift.

Data

PostgreSQL / Supabase, reproducible pipelines, row-level isolation enforced at the database.

AI layer

Heisen deterministic substrate, agents, structured output, embeddings — verifiable, not just confident.

Infrastructure

Vercel + Railway, Canadian data residency, CI/CD with build-time gates.

Security

Auth, RLS, STRIDE threat modeling, immutable audit logging — shipped as standard.

How it works

Five steps, fixed scope where it counts.

The same 5-gate engagement lifecycle we publish on /how-we-work — applied to bespoke builds.

01 — Discovery

We map the problem, constraints, and success criteria before a line of code. Fixed-bid scoping for defined phases.

02 — Design

Architecture, data model, and threat model documented and reviewed. ADRs for every irreversible decision.

03 — Build

Incremental delivery — each unit shippable on its own, validated against the gate before the next begins.

04 — Ship

Production rollout with observability wired in, runbooks written, and a clean handover of every artifact.

05 — Support

Optional SLA-backed managed service — or a clean exit with everything documented so you can run it yourself.

Custom software — FAQ

Custom software, answered

Custom software is an application built specifically for your operation instead of bought off a catalog. Maxor builds web apps, internal tools, integrations, and AI features to your exact spec — engineered end-to-end by the Canadian team behind Maxor's own products.

You do — the client owns the IP from day one. Maxor delivers the source code; there is no vendor lock-in on the code you paid to build.

Cost and timeline depend on scope, so Maxor scopes every project before committing. Engagements are sized in phases with mergeable milestones so you see working software early rather than at the end.

Yes — Maxor ships audit-grade code by default: typed, tested, documented, and built to the same engineering rigor as our own production products. You receive maintainable code, not a black box.

Yes — Maxor is a bilingual Canadian (Quebec) team. Delivery, documentation, and support are available in French and English, aligned with Quebec's Loi 25.
