Garud Labs

AI Development for Ecommerce businesses in Canada

What is AI Development in Canada?

We design and ship production AI systems, not just proof-of-concept demos. For Ecommerce companies in Canada, this means meeting PCI DSS requirements while maintaining UTC-3.5 to UTC-8-aligned delivery.

Who needs AI Development for Ecommerce?

  • Cart abandonment and checkout friction
  • Inventory sync across multiple sales channels
  • Page speed and Core Web Vitals under heavy traffic
  • AI pilots that never reach production
  • Lack of in-house ML engineering talent
