Data & AI in Toronto
Toronto is a global AI research hub with scarce applied-engineering capacity; we complement local data-science teams with the production ML engineering that gets models out of notebooks.
Why Toronto
Data & AI, grounded in how Toronto actually works
Toronto is Canada's financial capital and one of North America's fastest-growing tech hubs, with a deep AI research community anchored by the Vector Institute. It is also one of the most diverse cities anywhere — including a large Bangladeshi-Canadian business community — and privacy expectations are set federally by PIPEDA. Hiring pressure in the city makes dedicated offshore teams a mainstream choice for mid-size firms.
Intrivik builds production machine-learning systems, LLM applications and the data pipelines underneath them — deployed and monitored, not left in notebooks.

Frequently asked questions
Do we need huge data volumes to benefit from AI?
No. Most business value comes from modest, well-organized data — forecasting, document automation, customer scoring. We start with the data you have and tell you honestly when it isn't enough.
Should we build with LLMs or train our own models?
Depends on the task. Retrieval-augmented LLM systems cover most document and language work; custom models win on structured prediction. We prototype cheaply before you commit to either.
Can our data stay in Canada?
Yes — we deploy to Canadian cloud regions (e.g. ca-central-1) when PIPEDA or client contracts require Canadian residency.
When can we actually talk to the team?
Every ET morning — that's our evening, and we hold it as a live window for standups, reviews and decisions. The rest of your day, work progresses while you're offline.
