Canonical page: https://uxpro.ca/locations/canada Outside Ontario everything runs remotely, and it works well. Here is how time zones, sales tax and provincial rules change the arrangement, and what stays the same. Where we work here, and how: - [Ontario](https://uxpro.ca/locations/ontario): In person in Waterloo Region; on request elsewhere. - British Columbia and Alberta: Morning reviews, your time. Remote. - The Prairies: Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Remote. - Quebec: Remote. French copy quoted as its own line. - Atlantic Canada: Afternoon reviews, your time. Remote. - The United States: Remote. Product, brand and deck work most often. How we meet: - **Remote:** Video calls set around your time zone, a written brief, and a prototype or staging link. - **Paperwork:** Canadian dollars, with GST or HST under CRA place-of-supply rules stated on the quote. ## Can UXPro work with us remotely from elsewhere in Canada? Yes. UXPro is a design studio in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, and we work remotely with businesses and startups across Canada on websites, product and app UX, brand identity, pitch decks and search visibility. Engagements run on video calls, a written brief and a prototype or staging link, with review times set around your time zone. Prices are published in Canadian dollars, and every project is one fixed quote. | Fact | Value | |---|---| | Studio | Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario | | How we work | Remote: calls, a written brief, a shared link | | Our hours | Monday to Friday, 9 to 5 Eastern | | Currency | Canadian dollars | | Sales tax | GST or HST by CRA place-of-supply rules | | Ownership | Your code stays in your repository. You own it. | | Website builds | From $1,500 CAD + HST, by tier | | The Redline | A written review of what stops enquiries and what to fix first. Yours to keep. | ## Remote product, brand, deck and website work, coast to coast. What each service looks like when every meeting is on a call. - [UX and UI product design](https://uxpro.ca/services/ux-ui-design): Product design for remote teams, reviewed in a shared prototype rather than in a meeting room. - [Mobile app design](https://uxpro.ca/services/mobile-app-design): App design phone-first, handed off with every state drawn and a component set. - [Pitch deck design](https://uxpro.ca/services/pitch-deck-design): Decks for founders raising anywhere in Canada, planned backwards from the meeting date. - [Branding and identity](https://uxpro.ca/services/branding): Identity work delivered as artwork, a short guide and the files your printers and developers need. - [Website design and build](https://uxpro.ca/services/website-design-build): Websites you own, in your own repository, launched from a staging link you have already approved. - [AI search visibility](https://uxpro.ca/services/ai-search-geo): Search and AI visibility work for businesses whose customers start with a question rather than a name. ## Time zones, tax and the law that does not travel. Remote, coast to coast Name, place and number: - **Studio:** UXPro Design Studio - **Based in:** Kitchener, Ontario, Canada - **Email:** hello@uxpro.ca - **Hours:** Monday to Friday, 9 to 5 Eastern - **Area served:** Canada, remotely No street address is published: the studio has none that matches a verified listing, and a local page should not invent one. ### Time zones, planned rather than suffered Our hours are 9 to 5 Eastern. That is 6 to 2 in Vancouver, 7 to 3 in Calgary, 8 to 4 in Winnipeg and Regina, 10 to 6 in Halifax and 10:30 to 6:30 in St. John's. Western clients get morning reviews; Atlantic clients get afternoon ones. Written notes and a shared link carry the rest, so nobody waits for a call to approve something. ### Sales tax follows the rules, not the studio Our published prices are in Canadian dollars plus HST, the Ontario figure. For clients in other provinces we charge GST or HST under the Canada Revenue Agency's place-of-supply rules, which for services generally follow the client's location. Provincial sales taxes such as BC PST or Quebec QST are separate regimes. Your quote states the tax line that applies. ### What Ontario knowledge does not travel AODA, PHIPA and the Law Society of Ontario's marketing rules are Ontario law and Ontario regulation. A law firm in Alberta answers to its own law society, a clinic in British Columbia to that province's privacy law, and a Quebec business to the Charter of the French Language for its website. We design to the same WCAG standard everywhere, and we say plainly when a question belongs with your own counsel. ### And the United States We also take on remote work for US companies, most often product, brand and deck work. Prices are quoted in Canadian dollars, and we do not offer advice on US accessibility or privacy law. ## What we measured outside Ontario Nothing. The index is an Ontario study: all 187 sites are Ontario practices. We have no figure for British Columbia, Alberta, Quebec or anywhere else, so this page quotes none as if it were national. - Sites measured outside Ontario: 0 of 187. - Ontario baseline: served over HTTPS: 100% of 187 homepages. - Ontario baseline: median homepage weight: 2.3 MB on a simulated phone (n = 183). *If we measure another province, it will be its own edition with its own frame, published with the method.* The Ontario Practice Website Index, with its method and data: https://uxpro.ca/research/ontario-practice-website-index ## Work that fits this page, each piece labelled. Remote work is mostly product, brand and deck work, so that is what is shown: two real engagements anonymised at the clients' request, and our own deck practice. - **[Stride](https://uxpro.ca/work/stride)** (Study-habit app · product UX · Client work, anonymised): A study app built around one obvious next session: three onboarding screens, a four-question intake that ends in a plan, study areas that hold a goal as easily as a course, and a component set on an eight-point grid. Client work, anonymised at the client's request. No install or retention figures claimed. - **[Latitude](https://uxpro.ca/work/latitude)** (Budget travel · identity · Client work, anonymised): One yellow, a mark with no small parts, and the applications a travel brand is actually read on — a van panel, the side of a bus, a transit poster, a roadside board. Each colour's job is stated, which is the part of a guide that gets used. Client work, anonymised at the client's request. No traffic or booking figures claimed. - **[Funded — pitch deck practice](https://uxpro.ca/work/funded)** (Pitch decks · studio practice · Our own practice): Four startup concepts, each with its own audience, message and visual identity. Original studio studies for Zonely, Embergrid, Serein and Tandem. No real fundraising process or business outcome is represented. Stride and Latitude are client work, anonymised at the clients' request: the names, marks and palettes shown are ours, and no install, traffic or booking figures are claimed. Funded is our own practice; no founder's deck is shown. ## Prices in Canadian dollars, tax by province. The same published prices apply in every province. The tax line follows CRA place-of-supply rules and is stated on the quote, never added after. Prices: - Standard website: From $1,500 CAD + HST. One landing page, built around a single conversion. Typically two to three weeks. - Product and app design: A UX audit at $850 CAD per product, plus HST; design sprints at $4,500 CAD per two-week sprint, plus HST. - Pitch decks: Standard $1,800 CAD per deck, plus HST; investor deck $3,500 CAD per deck, plus HST. - Product, brand and decks: One fixed quote after the first conversation, agreed before work starts.

No. Our index is Ontario-only, 187 practice homepages, and we do not extrapolate it to the rest of Canada. If we measure another province, it will be published as its own edition with its own method. ### How do review calls work across time zones? We book them inside our 9 to 5 Eastern day at a time that suits yours: mornings for British Columbia and Alberta, afternoons for Atlantic Canada. Between calls, you review a shared prototype or staging link and leave written comments whenever suits you. ### Which sales tax do you charge outside Ontario? GST or HST, according to the Canada Revenue Agency's place-of-supply rules for services, which generally follow where the client is. The quote states the tax line before you sign. Provincial sales taxes such as PST and QST are separate regimes; your accountant can confirm how they apply to you. ### Do your prices change for clients outside Ontario? No. The published tiers apply everywhere: Standard From $1,500 CAD + HST (typically two to three weeks), Growth From $3,500 CAD + HST (typically four to six weeks) and Premium From $7,500 CAD + HST (typically eight to twelve weeks). Care plans are $250, $650 and $1,200 a month. Prices are in Canadian dollars. ### Does the AODA apply to us if we are not in Ontario? The AODA is an Ontario law. Other provinces have their own accessibility laws at different stages, and federally regulated organisations come under the Accessible Canada Act. We design to the same WCAG standard wherever you are, and leave the legal reading to your counsel. ### Will we ever meet in person? Outside Ontario, usually not, and the projects do not suffer for it. Every step that would happen in a room happens on a video call with the prototype or staging link open on both screens. ### How long does a remote project take? The same as a local one. Website builds by tier: Standard, typically two to three weeks; Growth, typically four to six weeks; Premium, typically eight to twelve weeks. Brand, product and deck work is dated in the quote. ### Do you work with US companies? Yes, remotely, most often on product, brand and pitch-deck work. Prices are quoted in Canadian dollars, and US accessibility and privacy law is outside what we advise on.
