Technology Partner
Start with a scoped project. Keep one accountable partner if it's working.
Built for owners and small teams who keep making the biggest tech calls alone. Start with a scoped project that ships (a website, custom software, automation, an integration), priced to the work. Keep one accountable partner on after, month to month, only if you want to. No forced retainer, no 12-month lock.
Most engagements are one of these.
Each one is quoted to scope. The free Health Check finds which fits your business and sets the exact number, with no fixed packages and no buried monthly.
Research, logo, brand and design system, positioning, website, Google Business Profile, local SEO, and social setup, built as one accountable project so you show up and read as credible.
- Market research and positioning before any pixels
- Logo, brand, and a design system that holds together
- Website built to get found locally and convert
- Google Business Profile, local SEO, and social setup

You run the business.
I run the tech.
A vendor builds what you ask for. A partner figures out what to ask, then builds it.
When a tech call goes wrong, it's mine to fix. Not yours to worry about.
It starts after a project wraps, and runs month to month. From CAD $750/mo.
The senior person who scopes your work owns how it ships. Thirteen years of shipping software behind every decision, and nothing goes out unless it's right.
One accountable person who holds the thread across marketing, sales, delivery, and the back office. Not a ticket queue, not a rotating cast.
A question Monday morning gets an answer Monday. Nothing sits in a queue or gets re-explained to whoever picks it up next.

Tax, bookkeeping, and advisory, 25+ years in the GTA, founder-led since 2001.
Decide what to be known for
Two weeks of conversations and watching how they work, before a pixel moved. What sets them apart, who they love serving, what they are most proud of.
The answer, a specialist who personally owns your file, became the language and the photography: real people at real desks and a named specialty, not stock photos and a generic tagline.
One partner across all of it, on one calendar, and a second brand when they came back. Shipped and building, not the separate vendor engagements this usually takes.
All Seasons Limo
A new luxury limo service. A lean get-found site is underway to show up in local search, with social and a Google Business Profile alongside it.
The get-found work is built around your industry. Same playbook, pointed at yours.
Search-friendly content for the questions owners actually ask.
The jobs people search for, plus quotes and scheduling off scattered spreadsheets.
Your Google profile, reviews, and online ordering, working together.
These are recent and still building, so this is the work itself and the client's own words, not a results page.
Different shapes for different needs.
There are six common ways to add tech help to a small business. Here's the shape of each.
| Ouzart | MSP | Agency | Freelance dev | Offshore dev | Full-time CTO | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strategy, builds, and ongoing ops | All three | Ops only | Builds only | Tasks only | Builds, you spec | All three (in-house) |
| Month-to-month, no annual contract | ✓ | Annual typical | Per-project | ✓ | Per-project | × |
| Pricing visible on the page | ✓ | Sometimes | SOW quote | Rate card | Rate card | Salary band |
| Cost shape for an SMB | $2–40K project + $750/mo | $50–200/seat | $20–80K/project | $80–200/hr | $15–50/hr | $150K+ salary |
Each option is well-shaped for its work. If the lowest build cost is the only goal, an offshore shop wins, and you own the spec, the managing, and the timezone gap. Choose Ouzart when you want strategy, builds, and the day-to-day in between, local and accountable, without a full-time hire.
The questions people ask.
Can I just do a project?+
Yes. That's how almost everyone starts. Most clients begin with one scoped project that comes out of the free Tech Health Check. Staying on as a partner afterward is optional, not a condition of working together.
I already have a plan or roadmap. Can we skip the discovery?+
Yes. If you already have a plan, a digital adoption plan, a CDAP roadmap, an audit someone else wrote, hand it over and we scope and quote the build directly. No forced Health Check, no re-discovery you've already paid for. I read what you have, we agree on the first project worth shipping, and I price it.
How is the project priced?+
Quoted to scope, from CAD $2,000. The Health Check surfaces the work and I price it against what it actually involves, with most projects landing between $2,000 and $40,000 depending on the build. You see mockups and the price before anything starts. No buried monthly, no blank cheque.
What does staying on as a partner cost?+
From CAD $750/mo, month to month. It's a thin layer on top of a finished project, not where the build hides. You're paying for the decisions and the judgment to be owned (the roadmap, the vendor calls, the build decisions), not for a quota of hours.
How does the first-month refund work?+
On the ongoing partnership: first month fully refundable. If after 30 days you don't think the work is worth what you paid, I refund the month and we part on good terms. No forms, no escape clauses, your word is enough. After month one the 30-day exit kicks in: notice in writing, no early-termination fees.
How does the 30-day exit work?+
Notice in writing, email is fine. 30 days from notice we wrap. No early-termination fees. Any in-flight work either closes out within those 30 days or hands off to your team with documentation. The price you sign at locks in for as long as the partnership continues.
Where do you work?+
Greater Toronto Area. Halton and Peel led for in person, remote across Canada. The local, in-person option is there when it matters, and it's a real part of what you get.
Who actually does the work?+
Today, that's me. As Ouzart grows the shape holds: one accountable partner per client, across strategy, builds, and the day-to-day. The person you talk to in the first conversation is the person you keep working with.
