Frequently asked questions

Do I really only pay if I receive funding?

Yes. For most programs, we operate on a success-based model. That means no upfront fees, no retainers, and full alignment: we only get paid when you do. Some government programs (like IRAP) don’t allow for contingency-based billing. In those cases, we’ll provide a clear, fixed-fee scope of work upfront, no surprises, no fine print.

What kinds of funding do you help with?

We specialize in all forms of non-dilutive capital. This includes SR&ED tax credits, innovation grants, wage subsidies, government-backed loans and even SR&ED financing to unlock cash before your refund arrives. If it doesn’t cost you equity, we’ll help you get it.

How much involvement is needed from my team?

At the outset we'll need their support. To build a strong, defensible claim we need great data. From that point on, we handle everything. From research and writing to submissions and follow-ups. At times we may need clarifications from you and then we run with it. It’s a true white-glove, done-for-you process designed to protect your team’s time and deliver results.

What if I’ve never claimed SR&ED before?

That’s great, we’re honoured to work with you on your first SR&ED filing and look forward to helping you understand the process. As founders to founders, we’ll guide you through what’s eligible, handle the entire process, and file a defensible claim with zero guesswork on your end.

Will you support us if we get audited?

Absolutely. Unlike most firms, we don’t charge extra for it. All our claims are reviewed by ex-CRA auditors and built to withstand scrutiny from day one. If an audit comes up, we handle it. No surprise fees. No passing the buck. Just full support, built in.
