Automating SR&ED: Turning Code into Tax Credits

For many Canadian tech companies, the SR&ED (Scientific Research and Experimental Development) tax credit is a vital source of funding. Yet, preparing the claim is often a nightmare of digging through old emails, Jira tickets, and commit logs months after the fact.

We realized that SR&ED compliance should be a byproduct of good engineering, not a post-mortem activity.

The “Shift-Left” Approach to Compliance

With Oloodi Studio, we analyze your engineering activity in real-time.

  • Evidence Extraction: We correlate complex PRs with challenging technical problems.
  • Uncertainty Detection: When a team spikes on a solution or refactors a core component, that’s often a signal of technological uncertainty—a key pillar of SR&ED.
  • Automated Drafting: Our AI generates draft descriptions for the T661 form based on the actual work performed.

By documenting the “why” and “how” as it happens, we ensure that you capture the full value of your innovation without the end-of-year scramble.

Innovation pays. We just make sure you get the receipt.
