Our story

Three young entrepreneurs with big ambitions.

Oriana Solutions grew out of an entrepreneurship competition won while still in school. Less than a year later, we were delivering projects for a regional airline and a three-location restaurant group. Here's how we got there.

01The beginning

A competition won, then a company.

In 2025, our founders won first place nationally at Défi OSEntreprendre, college category, Quebec's largest entrepreneurship competition. The winning project was Quietnest, a mobile app designed and built from scratch.

Samuel Bergeron-Lagacé, now an Oriana co-founder, led that project while still a Computer Science Technology student at Cégep du Vieux Montréal. He received a $5,000 bursary at the 27th Grands Prix Desjardins gala, in the school stream, college category, along with a prize from the Fédération des cégeps.

It wasn't a school exercise. The app brought in more than 60 testers before launch. That's when we realized we liked building real products, and Oriana Solutions was born.

02Less than a year later

Established businesses trusted us.

We could have spent our first two years on five-page websites. That's not what happened.

Pascan Aviation

A regional airline serving Quebec and Atlantic Canada. An industry where close enough doesn't exist.

Le Balthazar

A three-location restaurant group, with menus, events and an identity to carry across the whole network.

A first client outside Quebec

Proof that what we build doesn't stop at the province's borders.

Our culture

People who care about what they build.

At Oriana, we don't just want to build good software. We want to build a team of ambitious, curious, self-directed people who like solving real problems.

01Our philosophy

Build. Learn. Improve.

We believe a good technology company is built around people as much as around technology.

We experiment, we test, we get it wrong, we learn and we start again. Every project is a chance to get better, individually and collectively.

That produces something far more genuine than a list of corporate values.

02Our values

Four values, the same everywhere.

Innovation

We're always looking for better ways to build. Every project is a chance to push what's possible with technology.

Simplicity

The best solutions are the ones people actually understand and use. We avoid unnecessary complexity at every step.

Collaboration

We work closely with our clients, not just for them. Your reality guides every decision we make.

Excellence

We don't ship just to ship. Every detail matters, every line of code is built to last and perform over time.

03How we work

No micromanagement. No pointless hierarchy.

  1. 01

    Autonomy

    We trust you to manage your work and make decisions.

  2. 02

    Direct communication

    We say things simply, quickly and with respect.

  3. 03

    Focus on impact

    We measure our work by what it brings the client, not by hours spent in front of a screen.

  4. 04

    Continuous improvement

    The way we work is never "final".

Questions and answers

Answers to the questions we get the most.

Depending on the type of project, your needs, and several other factors, the technology used can vary. Most of the time, we use TypeScript, a superset of JavaScript, as our programming language, along with Next.js as our framework. Our solutions are deployed on a modern, scalable cloud architecture based mainly on Microsoft Azure services. For payment systems, we use Stripe. For back-end authentication, we use Firebase. For LLMs, we use Flask as a framework and Python as a programming language. For APIs, we use .NET Core as a framework and C# as a programming language. For mobile apps on iOS, Google Play, Linux, and Windows, we use Flutter or React Native as a framework, along with Dart or TypeScript as a programming language. For websites, we build them custom or sometimes use WordPress with Elementor Pro. The technology used depends on the project and the client.

We generally start with an analysis phase to fully understand your needs, define key features, and build a game plan with you. Next, we move to the design phase, where we create the first mockups to present to you. This step can take between one week and one month. Once the mockups are validated and features clearly defined, we begin the development phase, which can take two weeks to two months, depending on project complexity. We're also able to quickly deliver a first version or an MVP to validate ideas early in the process. Overall, you should generally expect two weeks to three months for a complete project. This varies depending on each client, project complexity, and how responsive and involved they are in the process.

When building an application, AI-based coding tools can help you create a first version that you can test quickly and improve iteratively. However, as your project progresses, several things become very complex, such as securing the database, setting up an authentication process, hosting, complying with various laws and managing cookies, fixing critical bugs, and integrating a secure payment system. In short, it quickly becomes important to work with a team of experts to make sure you don't make mistakes that could end up costing a lot.

Prices vary depending on the type of project and the features required. Here's an indicative price grid: Under $5,000: Simple MVP, showcase website, basic features $5,000 to $10,000: Simple app with authentication, database, and user interface $10,000 to $25,000: Full platform with structured back-end, API, and advanced features $25,000 to $50,000: Scalable SaaS product, cloud architecture, third-party integrations, and optimized performance $50,000 and up: Complex custom solution, advanced scalability, robust infrastructure, and ongoing development

First, we're a young team that uses modern, scalable technologies. Our team brings together skills in software engineering, business administration, programming, computer science, and cybersecurity. We've worked with large institutions, including cities, on complex projects, as well as with individual entrepreneurs and startups. We always make sure to maintain continuous communication and simplify technology as much as possible for our clients. In 2025, our founders won first place at the OSEntreprendre Challenge national final with Quietnest, a mobile app they created. That project is the starting point of Oriana Solutions. Thousands of people take part in this competition every year, the largest entrepreneurship competition in Québec. Our clients include one of the most popular gastropubs in the province, a real estate broker ranked in the top 10 individually in Québec, a renowned professional coach, and several other SMBs and entrepreneurs.
