Working alongside teams like
Vancouver is the largest technology market in Western Canada, anchored by major engineering offices for Amazon downtown and Microsoft in the historic Stock Exchange Tower, plus a homegrown roster led by Hootsuite and a deep cluster around the Mount Pleasant and Gastown startup scene. The city pairs that with one of the world's largest visual-effects and animation industries, where studios render the films and shows the rest of the world watches.
Outside the screen, BC's resource economy runs through Vancouver: Teck Resources and the mining majors keep their head offices here, and the Port of Vancouver moves the country's Pacific trade. It is a mix of software, VFX, mining, and logistics that throws off enormous volumes of imagery, documents, and operational data.
arosplatforms builds production AI for Vancouver teams that survives an audit and a privacy review, not just a demo. We work on Pacific time, on the ground in Gastown and Mount Pleasant for discovery, and deploy in your own cloud so your team owns every model and record.

Industries we serve in Vancouver
Vancouver runs on Pacific time and so do we: on the ground in Gastown and Mount Pleasant for discovery and workshops, remote for speed in between. Every system is deployed in your own cloud, documented for audit, and owned by your team, which matters whether you handle customer data under PIPEDA or BC public-sector records under FOIPPA.

AI consulting in Vancouver, answered
It depends on scope. A focused readiness assessment or a single production use case is a fixed-fee engagement; a multi-system build is scoped after a free discovery call. We give you an honest range and a sequenced plan before any commitment.
Software and tech, film and VFX, mining, and real estate see the fastest return, because they run on imagery, documents, and high-value operational decisions, exactly where grounded AI pays off.
We are a remote-first team that works on Pacific time and meets clients on the ground across Gastown, Mount Pleasant, and Burnaby for discovery, workshops, and key milestones. Your AI runs in your own cloud, not ours.
Yes. We build with privacy and data residency from day one, deploy in your environment, and produce the controls that PIPEDA, BC's FOIPPA, and your risk team expect, including keeping data in Canada when required.
A first production use case typically goes live in weeks, not quarters. We start from the highest-leverage problem, prove it with evaluation, then expand.
