Engineering & Automation Services
AI automation, robotics, embedded systems, machine vision, prototyping, and custom engineering consulting for businesses across Canada.
5Tech is a multi-disciplinary engineering consultancy spanning robotics, AI, software, hardware, and mechanics. That range lets us take responsibility for whole problems — from an independent feasibility assessment through to a built, integrated, documented system — for businesses across Canada.
Our services
How to choose the right service
Start from the problem, not the technology — most engagements touch more than one service, but this is the quickest way to find where to start:
Problems we help solve
- Manual, repetitive work that does not scale as you grow
- Defects, errors, or equipment downtime caught too late
- Data trapped in systems and spreadsheets that do not talk to each other
- Off-the-shelf products that do not fit your real process or environment
- A promising idea that needs proving before it can attract budget or buy-in
From idea to prototype to deployment
- Discovery: We map the workflow, constraints, and a measurable success metric before building anything.
- Prototype: We build the smallest thing that proves value on your real data, line, or equipment.
- Integrate: We connect it to your systems with safety, guardrails, and human approvals where they matter.
- Deploy and hand over: We harden, document, and transfer the solution so your team can run and maintain it.
Industries we serve
- Manufacturing Automation — Vision inspection, robotics, and monitoring engineered onto your existing line.
- Warehouse & Logistics Robotics — Mobile robots, robotic handling, and vision integrated into your warehouse.
- Retail & E-commerce AI Automation — AI agents for orders, support, and back-office automation.
- Smart Buildings & IoT — Custom sensing, connectivity, and dashboards for facilities and buildings.
- Research & Prototyping — Custom rigs, sensors, and prototypes to test research ideas fast.
- Small Business Automation — Practical AI and workflow automation scoped for smaller teams and budgets.
Not sure which service you need?
Start from the problem, not the technology. Describe what you want to automate, measure, or build and we will point you to the right service — often it spans more than one, which is why we work across all of them. Every engagement begins with a short, free discovery call and a small, scoped first step so you can validate value before a larger commitment.
As an engineering consultancy serving businesses across Canada, we integrate with the systems, machines, and software you already run rather than forcing a rip-and-replace, and we hand over documented, maintainable systems your team owns. Whether you need an independent assessment or a fully built and integrated system, you get one accountable partner across robotics, AI, software, hardware, and mechanics.
Frequently asked questions
Which service do I actually need?
If you are not sure, start from the problem, not the technology. Describe what you want to automate, measure, or build and we will point you to the right service — often it spans more than one, which is why we work across all of them.
Do you offer consulting only, or full implementation?
Both. We can provide an independent assessment and architecture, or scope, build, integrate, and hand over a production system. You choose the depth.
How does a typical project start?
With a short, free discovery call and a narrowly scoped first milestone — usually a prototype on your real data or equipment — so you can validate value before a larger commitment.
Do you integrate with our existing systems and hardware?
Yes. Most of our work integrates with the PLCs, machines, sensors, and software you already run rather than requiring a rip-and-replace.
How much does a project cost?
It depends on scope. We give a budgetary estimate after a discovery call, and we deliberately scope a small first step so the initial cost and risk stay low.
