CANADA HITECH

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and position.

I am the Founder & CEO of Disco

Describe what your company does in a single sentence.

Disco is the AI layer for the transactional web. We power personalized discovery for consumers wherever commerce happens, using a proprietary commerce graph of over 150 million shopper profiles and $50B in transaction data to help retailers deliver timely, relevant offers.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire CANADA HITECH to accomplish?

• Develop Seamless Partner Integration Gateways, We wanted a standardized, secure e-commerce plugin framework that our enterprise brand partners (ranging from niche stores to major national retailers) could install effortlessly to connect their storefronts to our AI engine.
• Optimize Live Data Synchronization, Our core value relies on cross-network transaction tracking ($50B+ in transaction data). The goal was to build robust, highly secure end-points that could map cart-level transaction GMV instantly without dragging down the page-load speeds of our partners' checkout lines
• Architect an Enterprise-Grade Mobile Interface, We needed to build a flawless mobile application that could ingest our deep data layer and present hyper-personalized, real-time post-purchase offers to millions of shoppers smoothly, without latency.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Native Cross-Platform Mobile Application: A highly responsive mobile app built with clean, modern frameworks, incorporating an interactive dashboard where users can track, save, and redeem cross-brand rewards dynamically. E-Commerce SDKs & Plugins: Custom-built software development kits (SDKs) and tailored checkout plugins compatible with major global e-commerce systems, allowing our network brands to integrate Disco natively into their post-purchase success pages. Comprehensive Technical Documentation: Developer-facing integration guides and onboarding blueprints to ensure our partners' internal IT teams could deploy the Disco widget autonomously.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The technical delivery has significantly advanced our market positioning. The primary indicator of success was the sheer stability and speed of the mobile app launch; despite processing immense volumes of live data packet transfers from the commerce graph, user retention metrics climbed steadily week over week due to zero application crashes. Furthermore, our business development team now experiences a much shorter onboarding lifecycle when signing up new retail partners. Because the integration plugins CANADA HITECH built are intuitive and lightweight, brand partners can connect to the Disco network in a fraction of the time it previously took. The platform easily handles heavy concurrent user traffic during major retail sales events without a single stutter in offer delivery

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Their project management structure was disciplined and highly collaborative. They utilized an agile sprint framework, breaking down the massive mobile application builds into clear, manageable bi-weekly milestones. Deliverables were consistently met on time, and they used clear documentation tools so our leadership team always had an accurate view of code deployment stages. What I appreciated most was their responsiveness to technical edge cases. During mid-development, we had to adjust our API payload structure to accommodate specific security protocols required by some of our largest retail partners. The CANADA HITECH team didn't push back or delay; they immediately jumped on an unscheduled technical alignment call, restructured their upcoming sprint priorities, and integrated the changes seamlessly without derailing our original launch target

What was your primary form of communication with CANADA HITECH?

Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What stands out about CANADA HITECH is their ability to bridge the gap between high-level e-commerce engineering and complex data infrastructure. Many development shops can build an attractive retail app, but very few can build software that talks to a massive AI layer processing billions in GMV without slowing down. They treated our proprietary network architecture with the depth of understanding you'd expect from internal engineers. Additionally, their regional position in Dubai gives them access to a stellar, highly versatile technical talent pool.

Are there any areas for improvement or something CANADA HITECH could have done differently?

The engagement was incredibly smooth, but if I had to name an area for optimization, it would be the initial hand-off of the localized UI assets during the early design phase. The design team initially utilized layout structures common to Middle Eastern web architectures, whereas Disco targets a heavy U.S. e-commerce demographic. However, once we hopped on a brief styling workshop and clarified the aesthetic standards of U.S. shoppers, they adjusted immediately and perfectly aligned the rest of the interface.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

The project started with discovery sessions focused on understanding our business model, growth priorities, partnership ecosystem, and internal workflows. From there, they helped us map opportunities, refine outreach approaches, and establish a more organized process for evaluating commercial relationships. Their work included market and opportunity research, partnership analysis, business development planning, stakeholder recommendations, and recurring advisory sessions with leadership and operational teams. One aspect we appreciated was that their recommendations were practical. Rather than presenting overly theoretical ideas, they focused on frameworks our teams could realistically apply in day-to-day execution.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The engagement brought more clarity and discipline to how we approached commercial opportunities. We ended up with a more organized system for evaluating partnerships, stronger internal alignment around prioritization, and clearer decision-making frameworks for leadership discussions. One practical improvement was the quality of conversations internally. Teams had better visibility into opportunity tracking, and it became easier to determine where to invest time and resources. We also developed a stronger commercial roadmap that gave us confidence in how we approached certain growth initiatives.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Project management was dependable throughout the engagement. Communication was consistent, deliverables arrived when expected, and their team was responsive when priorities shifted. As a technology company, timelines move quickly, and they adapted well whenever plans changed. They were collaborative rather than rigid, which made working together easy. It felt less like working with an outside consultant and more like having an extension of the internal team.

What was your primary form of communication with CANADA HITECH?

In-Person Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their ability to combine strategic thinking with practical execution stood out. A lot of consulting firms provide high-level recommendations that are difficult to implement. CANADA HITECH took time to understand our business and focused on solutions that were realistic and actionable. I also appreciated how engaged they were throughout the process. They asked good questions, challenged assumptions when needed, and stayed focused on outcomes instead of simply completing tasks.

Are there any areas for improvement or something CANADA HITECH could have done differently?

Overall, we had a positive experience. If there was one area to improve, I think more structured executive reporting during certain phases of the engagement could have made progress even easier to evaluate at a leadership level. That said, communication overall was strong, and this was relatively minor.
