Sound familiar?
Custom software starts with a friction, not with a technology
You don't need to know what to build before talking to us. Describe what slows you down; working out what to assemble to remove it is our job.
What slows you down
-
Your operations live in spreadsheets
Duplicate entry, conflicting files, numbers you can't find when it's time to decide.
-
Your software has aged
It has done the job for ten years, but nobody dares touch it and the vendor stopped answering.
-
A repetitive task eats your days
Sorting, filing, copying, following up: work nobody should be doing by hand.
-
Your tools don't talk to each other
The CRM ignores billing, and someone rebuilds the bridge by hand every week.
-
Your teams work in the field
They fill out paper during the day and someone re-types it at night.
-
You want to launch a digital offer
An idea worth validating without burning a year of budget on it.
None of these frictions has a single answer. Getting out of a spreadsheet is sometimes an internal tool, sometimes AI automation, often both plus a mobile app for the field. We decide once we've seen your process, never before.

The team
Three co-founders, all from software development
Project Factory is a family business led by three brothers. We all come from software development, and that background drives every decision: what we scope, what we build, and what we advise you against.

What that changes for you
- Your technical constraints are understood from the first conversation.
- Changing a priority takes a conversation, not a committee.
- We stay on the product after launch, not just until the invoice.

Three steps. Not a six-month process.
At any point you know where the project stands, what has been decided and what is still open.
- 01
Scope
We clarify the goal, the users and the risks that could blow up the budget.
- 02
Build
We ship a useful version on foundations that will hold what comes next.
- 03
Launch
We go to production, watch how it is actually used, and adjust.
First conversation
Let’s see what it takes to move your project forward.
Tell us about your context. In 30 minutes, we'll identify the first useful release, the risks to resolve and the decisions that shape the budget.
Reply within 24 hours. No commitment and no sales script.
FAQ
The questions people ask us before the first call
Direct answers on budget, timelines, code ownership and what happens after launch.
How much does custom web or mobile app development cost?
The budget depends on scope, integrations, design depth, backend needs and launch constraints. We start by framing an MVP or first version so we can estimate what is essential, what can wait and which risks affect cost.
Can you build an MVP for a startup in Quebec?
Yes. We help founders turn an idea into a usable MVP: feature prioritization, prototype, architecture, web or mobile development, launch and adoption measurement.
Can you integrate AI into an existing product or process?
Yes, when AI creates real value: task automation, data extraction or classification, internal assistants, intelligent search, content generation or AI features inside a SaaS platform.
How long does it take to develop a custom web or mobile application?
The timeline depends on the number of features, integrations and technical complexity. An initial scoping phase establishes a realistic schedule, then allows us to launch a useful first version before adding secondary features.
Can you modernize or replace existing software?
Yes. We can analyze your current software, identify the processes that need to be preserved and plan a gradual migration to a modern web application or platform without unnecessarily disrupting your operations.
Do you provide maintenance after the application launches?
Launch is not the end of the project. Maintenance can cover issue resolution, security updates, monitoring, performance optimization and the development of new features.
Who owns the source code, data and developed application?
Ownership of the code, data, hosting accounts and other digital assets should be clearly defined in the contract. Our approach aims to help you retain control of your product and how it evolves.
