Software development for Montreal companies, built for Law 25

Centricone works remotely with companies across Montreal and Quebec — custom software, AI, and cloud work delivered on Eastern Time, designed against the strictest private-sector privacy regime in Canada.

How this works

We work with Montreal remotely, and we say so

Centricone has no office in Montreal. We deliver remotely, on Eastern Time, with senior contacts available through your working day and 24/7 escalation for production systems under a support agreement.

Montreal has a dense concentration of AI research and a strong game and creative technology sector, and it is also the jurisdiction where Canadian privacy obligations bite hardest — which is why the two questions we are most often asked here are about model data paths and about Law 25.

Eastern Time

Your working day, not an overlap window at the edges of it.

Your regime

Designed against the rules that apply where you operate.

One business day

The reply time we hold ourselves to on any enquiry.

The rules that apply to Quebec companies

Quebec's modernized private-sector privacy law goes further than the rest of Canada, and it carries consequences the federal regime does not.

  • Law 25 obligations including privacy by default and a designated privacy officer
  • Privacy impact assessments for projects involving personal information, including transfers outside Quebec
  • Rights to data portability and to challenge decisions made by automated processing
  • A monetary penalty regime materially stronger than PIPEDA's

Working with Montreal

Something specific to your market? Ask us directly.

No. We work remotely with Quebec clients on Eastern Time. We say so directly because a fabricated local presence is exactly the sort of claim a Quebec privacy officer would be right to probe.
It changes design rather than documentation. Privacy by default, an assessment before transferring personal information outside Quebec, and rights around automated decision-making all shape the architecture — which is why we treat it as an input at the start rather than a review at the end.
Yes, and the automated-decision provisions make the data path and explainability questions unavoidable. Our AI development page covers the evaluation and guardrail work, and the financial services crossing goes into explainability specifically.
Both, and AI is the service this market asks us for most. The scope differs rather than the approach — a mid-sized company usually gets more value from retrieval over documents it already holds than from anything trained, and we would rather say that than sell a larger project.
Yes, and doing it before a buyer's review rather than during one is considerably cheaper. The pattern we see is a deal that stalls on a questionnaire nobody can answer, at which point the remediation happens under time pressure that was entirely avoidable.
The same working day — we work Eastern Time, so there is no offset at all. Standups, reviews, and incident response happen live rather than through overnight handoffs, which is the main practical argument for an Eastern Time supplier over an offshore one.
