Software with public-service values
Municipalities answer to residents. The software they run should hold itself to the same standard.
Built, hosted and supportedin Canada
Castorix is a Canadian company. Your residents’ data, and the people who look after it, stay in the country.
Designed and written by our team in Canada, with clerks, librarians and coordinators from Canadian municipalities.
Your data lives in Canadian data centres, with backups in a second Canadian region. It never leaves the country, including for AI.
Our own support team in Canada answers in English or French, weekdays during Eastern business hours. No offshore call centre.
What webelieve
Open by default
Your data leaves as easily as it arrives, in formats anyone can read, through a documented API.
Accessible
Every resident can use every page, with a keyboard, a screen reader or a phone. WCAG 2.1 AA is a release requirement.
Bilingual
English and French are built into the content model, not bolted on as a second site.
Accountable
Every change, by a person or an assistant, is written to an audit log you can read and export.
Private
Designed around PIPEDA and Quebec’s Law 25: collect less, explain why, keep it in Canada and delete it on schedule.
Human in the loop
AI drafts and suggests. A person approves anything residents will see, and your data never trains a model.
“We would rather earn your renewal than lock you in.”
Our name comes from the beaver, an animal that builds durable infrastructure for its whole community.
Getting started is easy.
