Real infrastructure for organizations that can't afford an agency.

Nonprofits, advocacy groups, and civic institutions get pitched the same two options: a full agency retainer priced for a business budget, or volunteer hours and free tools stretched past what they can hold. The organizations doing the most important work in this province usually have the least infrastructure behind it.

I build the systems directly: strategy, design, code, and deployment from the same person who diagnosed the problem. That keeps cost down to what the work actually takes, not what four handoffs and an account manager add on top.

Some of my nonprofit and municipal clients need AI features but can't accept a US-hosted service touching community data. I've already solved that: Nearfolk runs its search on an open-source model on local hardware in Kingston, so nothing leaves Canada. That's shipped, not theoretical, and it's available for any project that needs the same guarantee.

Non-profits with 20 or more employees file their next AODA compliance report by December 31, 2026, and at 50 or more the public website has to meet WCAG 2.0 AA. A lot of nonprofit and municipal sites still fall short. I built HEET's national tour site myself to meet AODA accessibility standards, and I build every site to WCAG 2.2 AA from day one, this one included.Here's what the AODA asks of organizations at each size.

If your organization bids on public contracts, myRFP & Tender Monitoring Tooldoes the portal-checking for you. It pulls new tenders from 11+ government sources, filters them to your region, and sends them to your inbox twice a day.

Not a good fit if you need a large in-house team managed on your behalf, or if the real blocker is board-level change management rather than a build. This works best with a single decision-maker or a small committee who can greenlight scope and let me run with it.
