British Columbia (BC), Canada
AI development for Kelowna teams, on your working day
Vancouver, British Columbia is where the work gets done, and Kelowna is one of the markets it gets done for. Nobody from this shop sits in Kelowna. The 8-hour daily overlap is what makes that a detail rather than a problem.

8 hours of your day, every working day
Kelowna runs on the same clock as Vancouver. On a normal working day the two calendars overlap from 09:00 to 17:00 Vancouver time, which is 09:00 to 17:00 where you are.
Practically, it means your team can treat us as another desk in the building for most of the day: same standup, same review queue, same afternoon scramble when something breaks.
The parts that still get written down are written down anyway: acceptance criteria, the decision log, and what changed in each weekly increment. A shared clock is not an excuse for an undocumented project.
What Kelowna buyers usually bring us
The record for Kelowna lists two industries. Here is the part of each one that turns into an engagement, and the service line it lands under.
wine
Vintage records, vineyard data and distribution history are small, messy datasets where a tool layer beats a model every time.
The first slice is thin and runs end to end: one real workflow, one real data source, and an agent with tools that change something rather than describe it.
Closest service line: AI products, built end to end
software
The repo is the constraint on how much AI-assisted work you keep. Context files, scoped rules and checks the agent can run itself come first.
Worked examples of good output, in your own code, teach a team more than any document about prompting we could write.
Closest service line: Codebase and team optimization
Contracts, currency and where the data sits
This is a domestic engagement. Invoices are in Canadian dollars, the contract is Canadian, and nothing crosses a border on the way to you or on the way back.
Everything downstream of that is deliberately unremarkable. Fixed acceptance criteria, weekly shipping, a written decision log, and a first reply that tells you if Kelowna work of this shape is not something we should take.
The five lines we sell
Same five lines everywhere, Kelowna included. Most engagements are one of them, sometimes two.
- AI products, built end to end
- Knowledge bases and retrieval
- Codebase and team optimization
- Training and enablement
- Forward-deployed engineering
The languages, models and infrastructure underneath all five are listed on the Magic Ship stack page, with what each one is good for and where it is the wrong choice.
