Venture Studio specialized in AI
rooted in Stoneham, Canada.
ScaleForged designs, builds, and runs a growing portfolio of SaaS platforms on a shared core, an active bridge between the global AI frontier and the Canadian SMB fabric. Depending heavily on the largest US AI provider isn't viable long-term: you pay a toll on every request, margins erode, and capital flows to the US instead of staying in Canada. If the whole ecosystem does the same, it is the Canadian economy that falls behind. The studio proposes the opposite. Canadian AI infrastructure that keeps the IP at home and drives costs down.
Find the fit · in short loops.
Every product in the portfolio runs the same development lifecycle: ship a first useful version, measure real usage, listen to customer feedback, then iterate. We don't bet on a perfect first cut. We aim for product-market fit, reached through short loops fed by customers.
01Ship. Put a first useful version in real customers' hands, fast.
The Silicon Valley · Canada bridge.
The studio transposes to Stoneham the venture-studio model Anthony Paquet co-founded at CREE8 (Los Angeles): simultaneous construction of multiple SaaS products on a shared infrastructure, adapted to the Canadian reality through strong Québec anchoring.
Import
Continuous technical watch over the AI frontier: leading-edge models, fine-tuning, and large-scale infrastructure patterns.
The studio tests first, implements next. Every wave of AI progress is prototyped in Stoneham, measured on real use cases, then built into a portfolio product once its value is proven.
Implement
AI-native Québec platforms, operated on Canadian soil. Rather than renting intelligence from third-party APIs, the studio fine-tunes and self-hosts open-weight models. The IP, weights, and data stay in Canada.
Building on a third-party API means inheriting its fragilities: per-token costs that erode margin, a roadmap you don't own, IP outside your perimeter. Hosted on AWS, GCP, Azure, or on-premise, sovereignty by default.
Share
Position the studio as the technology partner for Canadian digital SMBs. Put knowledge and infrastructure at the service of entrepreneurs across Canada adapting to the AI era.
Transfer of experience from Stoneham to the Canadian SMB fabric: shared technical core, methods, and tooling, already proven on the studio's own products and handed to entrepreneurs to build on Canadian soil, coast to coast.
Many platforms · one shared core.
Each product is operated as an independent brand, with its own customers, expert co-founder (SME), and go-to-market cycle. All share a common technical infrastructure, pooled professional services, and the same underlying AI core.
One operator · a core that multiplies.
One operator runs a whole portfolio because the essentials are pooled and reused on every product: intelligence, hosting, compliance, go-to-market. A new product starts on the core, never from scratch.
Shared AI core
Open-weight models, fine-tuned per vertical and self-hosted, with no per-request toll.
Sovereign hosting
Multi-cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure) or on-prem, Canadian data residency by default.
Built-in compliance
Law 25 and PIPEDA handled at the core, not product by product.
Legal & structure
Corporate structure, contracts, IP, pooled across every product.
Go-to-market
Brand, SEO, AI-engine indexing. One playbook reused at every launch.
Expert co-founder (SME)
Each vertical is paired with a domain expert who carries its vision.
