Senior advice, without the big-firm invoice
AI handles the research, the drafting and the checking. An experienced person decides what you should do. You get a technology plan, a security review or a fractional CIO at a price a small team can carry.
2Labs Advisory is a Canadian technology advisory and software company in Alberta. It helps not-for-profits and charities use AI to get senior technology advice, custom software and well-built websites. AI does the slow, repetitive work that used to make good technology expensive, so a small organization can afford what only a much larger one could before. A person reviews the work and makes every decision. Advisory services are available now, and the full price list is published at 2labs.ca/pricing.
Canadian software and technology advice Big-firm work.
Big-firm work.
Small-shop money.
Software and advice for organizations that can’t afford either.
We use AI to do the slow, expensive parts of technology work, so a small not-for-profit can have what only a large one could before: a proper website, software built around how you work, and senior advice on what to do next. People make every decision.
The advice is available today. The products are close behind.
How we help
AI does the heavy lifting. People make the decisions.
That is how a small organization gets what used to take a big team.
Software and websites built around how you work
Instead of bending your process to fit someone else’s product, we build the tool or the website your team actually needs, quickly, and hand it over so your own staff can run it.
More done by the same team
Newsletters, reports, website updates and search visibility take minutes instead of evenings, so your people spend their time on the mission.
Help that is already in the tool
Every 2Labs tool has FRIDAY built in, an assistant that answers from our help articles and shows its sources. If it cannot help, one click sends your question to a real person on our team. Meet FRIDAY

Available now · Not-for-profit technology advisory
Senior technology leadership, at a scale a charity can actually afford.
Most organizations meet us here. Someone on the board wants to know whether the systems are safe. A director needs to know if the vendor renewing next month is still worth the money. Somebody has been sold a platform and nobody is sure it was the right one.

on every site we build
How most customers arrive
It usually starts with a website.
A website is the thing a board already agreed you need. So that is where we start. We build it once — properly, accessibly, and to your brand — and then your staff keep it current by describing the change they want.
Once it is live, the donation form on that site can write straight into Donors, and the join-and-renew form into Members. The CRM stops being a second purchase to justify and becomes an extension of something you already trust.
Why Canadian matters here
Built for CRA rules, not configured around them.
The dominant products in nonprofit CRM and membership management are built in the United States. They treat CRA receipting, GST/HST on dues, the advantage rule, bilingual requirements and Canadian data residency as edge cases to work around.
- CRA-compliant tax receipts, built in rather than bolted on
- GST/HST on membership dues handled correctly
- The CRA advantage rule modelled, not ignored
- Data hosted in Canadian regions
- Priced in Canadian dollars, with no exchange surprise

Advisory work starts with a 30-minute conversation. No obligation, and no obligation to buy software afterwards either.
