Working with Ottawa.

A small studio in Vancouver, working remotely with businesses in Ottawa.

01

What we build for Ottawa businesses

These are jobs we take on for Ottawa businesses.

A connected-product demo can show a real screen and the outcome it supports before inviting a sales conversation. An equipment quote should retain the specification file and product identifier. A training enquiry might need the requested session, participant count and confirmation, while a customer portal must check that each signed-in user sees only permitted records. Those are possible project scopes for technology and manufacturing work. Pick a representative input and failure case for review: a missing attachment, an invalid booking or a user without access. That gives the developer and approver a shared definition of finished.

  • A product site with a diagram and a demo request, for vehicle software, sensors or connectivity equipment.
  • A quote form that accepts a spec from a manufacturer.
  • A booking page for site visits and training.
  • A small store for parts, kits or software licences.
  • A web app or iPhone app for a tool used away from a desk.

How it works from Ottawa

Ottawa is ahead of Vancouver by three hours in daylight time and two in standard time. Keep the actual review date on the invitation. Send the prototype or existing system, the piece being commissioned and the person who approves it. We can build beside your product developer while they keep hardware, server or design work. A defined deliverable receives a fixed quote; an unknown integration can begin with discovery. CAD invoices and release access are set in the agreement.

03

What your site should handle in Ontario

These items define technical implementation to agree with your business and advisers; this is not legal advice or certification.

  • If AODA website requirements apply, identify the covered portal or public content and agree the accessibility target and exceptions before implementation.
  • Use approved PIPEDA wording around demo requests and CASL consent for subsequent marketing messages, with an unsubscribe route the sender maintains.
  • HST configuration follows your adviser’s instructions. Include a representative equipment or training order where checkout is part of the project.

04

Our own work

Tifo is our media app across iPhone, iPad and Apple TV; Rain is our browser with on-device blocking. They show released interfaces tied to device capabilities. An equipment demo or portal has different inputs and access rules, which are demonstrated in the preview commissioned for that project.

05

Platforms we work with

Ottawa builds use WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix, Next.js, React, TypeScript, Swift, Kotlin, React Native or Flutter.

Ways to work with us

Built by us

We don’t show client logos. We show what we build and run ourselves — nine apps on the App Store, and this site.

Questions

Can we give you only the customer portal interface?

Yes. We agree the API responses, access roles and error behaviour with whoever owns the server. The preview should exercise permitted records and blocked access. Server changes and deployment are identified separately in the scope.

Can you implement a product demo from existing screens?

Bring the screens, approved data and the task the demo must explain. We can build the agreed interface or website presentation beside your designer. The scope identifies which parts are functional and which are illustrative.

How does an Ottawa project start?

Email mwe@hehe.software or use the contact form with the Ottawa job: a website, a store, an app or a repair. We scope that Ottawa work and reply with a fixed quote or an hourly estimate.

Are quotes and invoices for Ottawa in Canadian dollars?

Quotes and invoices for Ottawa clients are in CAD. We scope the Ottawa job first, and the quote then shows a fixed price or an hourly estimate.
