North York app and software development
Ojastra is a Toronto team, and North York is part of our home city. We do app development, internal tools, integrations and AI automation for North York businesses, from the Yonge and Sheppard office core to the retail and care providers around it, at a fixed price agreed first.
Many searches here start with IT consulting, so a word on that up front: we plan, choose and build business systems, and we don't run help desks.
Fixed price. You own the code. A working demo every week.
You search for an IT consultant and find managed IT, device support and ticket queues. Those are useful, but they don't produce a system, and we don't offer them. We give you a plan for what to buy, connect and build.
Finance, HR, sales and operations each picked their own software, and data moves between them by export and email.
Intake forms, consents and referrals are filled in by hand and retyped by staff. Patients lose time and the front desk loses hours.
Stock in one tool, orders in another and the numbers reconciled on Friday afternoons.
iPhone, Android and web apps for ordering, booking, memberships and field work, built from one codebase where that saves money.
Approvals, reporting, vendor management and links between finance and operations, built for the tools your teams already use.
Online booking, forms before the visit, reminders and follow-up for the practices that surround the district's hospitals.
Shopify stores connected to inventory, accounting and point-of-sale, so the numbers match without Friday reconciliation.
The first version of a product for funded founders and student-led ventures near York University, built to grow.
A review of what you run, what each tool costs, and a plan to connect, replace or custom-build it, with prices attached.
North York has its own downtown along Yonge Street between Sheppard and Finch, where head offices, financial firms, professional practices and the civic centre sit above two subway lines. Office teams there share a pattern: lots of tools, little integration, and an IT department that is stretched across all of it.
Health care is a major employer in the district, with large hospitals and care providers nearby. Hospital systems are a different world and not our focus, but the independent clinics, specialists and care businesses around them often run on forms, phone calls and spreadsheets. That's where we build booking, intake and follow-up tools.
York University's Keele campus and the big shopping centres at Yorkdale and Fairview give North York a student and retail economy with seasonal crowds. Because North York is part of Toronto, a meeting at your office is an easy trip, and weekly demos run on screen either way.

No. We don't answer help-desk tickets, replace laptops or monitor networks. We plan business systems, connect the tools you already pay for and build custom software where nothing off the shelf fits.
A customer-facing web or mobile app is $20K–$60K and takes six to twelve weeks. An app that serves your own staff is more often a $12K–$40K tool over four to ten weeks. You receive the exact price before any build begins.
Yes. We start by documenting what the old system does and who depends on it, then replace it in stages so nothing stops working on one day. Some jobs are a $5K–$12K integration and some are a full rebuild, and the blueprint tells you which.
Yes, we're based in Toronto, and North York is part of it. We're glad to meet at your office, then run the weekly demos by video or in person, as you prefer.
