A small software studio out of Ontario, Canada, building apps, tools, and automations from interface to infrastructure. The kind of software we'd actually use ourselves.
NorthStack started because we wanted to build things on our own terms. Software we'd actually use, built the way we think software should be built.
GOPulse started with our own frustrating GO commutes. It was frustrating enough to do something about it.
That's the approach. We care about how things work, from interface to infrastructure, and that standard applies to everything we build.
No shortcuts. Everything is built for the long term, designed to scale, not just to work today.
Clear structure. Thoughtful interfaces. Details matter. Software should feel as good as it works.
No growth hacks. No feature gates. No dark patterns. Build something useful, and let that do the talking.
For anyone who rides GO regularly. No clutter, no menus to dig through. Just your trains, your station, and the stuff you actually care about.
Open the app and your next departure is right there. Save your regular journeys and GOPulse handles the rest. It finds your closest station and shows you what's leaving next. Built in Ontario by people who actually ride GO.
Everything you need for your commute. Nothing you don't.
See your train on the map. Not a countdown, not an estimate. The actual train, moving in real time across all GO lines.
Add the journeys you take regularly and GOPulse figures out where you are, finds your closest station, and shows what's leaving next.
Pick your arrival time, pick your days, add a buffer for getting to the station. You'll get a notification when it's time to head out.
Disruptions, delays, and modified trips show up right on your home screen. No more finding out once you get to the station.
Going somewhere you don't usually go? Search any route and get schedules, options, and PRESTO fares all in one place.
Parking availability, facilities, accessibility info, and platform details for every GO station in the network.
