We design the software your business runs on.

Bit Keeper is a technology consultancy in Oakville, Ontario. We help companies plan, design and grow internet services, from the first architecture sketch to systems that keep running for years.

Two practices, one team

Most of our clients need both: software that is well built, and a business model that makes it worth building.

Software design consulting

Architecture and product design for web platforms, APIs and internal tools.

  • System architecture and technical reviews
  • Cloud and edge infrastructure planning
  • API and data model design
  • Security and reliability assessments
  • Build, buy or integrate decisions

Internet business consulting

Strategy and operations for companies whose business lives online.

  • Digital product strategy and roadmaps
  • Online sales, subscriptions and payment flows
  • Platform and vendor selection
  • Analytics and growth measurement
  • Process automation

We build our own products too

Price Beater

In our first year, 2013, we built Price Beater, a community price comparison site for Canadian shoppers. People submitted the prices they saw at different retailers, and the site combined them into a single comparison for each product.

The same skills sit at the centre of our client work: collecting data from many sources, keeping it consistent, and presenting it so people can act on it.

  • Prices submitted by shoppers and grouped by product
  • Paste a product link to find the same item at other stores
  • Base price and shipping side by side for each retailer
  • A layout built for phones

How an engagement runs

  1. Understand

    We start with your business, not the technology: goals, constraints, customers and budget.

  2. Design

    We map the system and its trade-offs in writing, so your team can own the decisions after we leave.

  3. Build

    We deliver the work ourselves, or guide your team and vendors through it with reviews at each milestone.

  4. Keep

    Software outlives projects. We plan for maintenance, monitoring and the next change from day one.
