Pioneering the Future of SR&ED Filings
At Shredy, we simplify the SR&ED process for Canadian technology and research companies. Our goal is to empower businesses to confidently navigate SR&ED eligibility and submission, reducing uncertainty around what qualifies for this essential government program.
While we currently offer Shredy at an operating loss, we believe in the importance of making SR&ED more accessible and transparent for Canadian innovators.
The SR&ED program is Canada’s leading initiative to help businesses secure funding for innovation, with approximately $3 billion in claims annually. Nearly 15% of that goes to consultants—around $450 million every year. The complexity of filing SR&ED claims makes hiring professional consultants a logical choice, but the process can be made more efficient.
Our solution leverages the latest advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs), cloud computing, and AI agents to reduce the complexity of SR&ED filings while improving accuracy and compliance.
Our focus is on automating key parts of the SR&ED process, particularly technical writing. We are developing tools to:
LLMs are not flawless. They can generate inaccurate information if prompted incorrectly. At Shredy, we are optimizing how LLMs work within the SR&ED framework, ensuring a more reliable and compliant output.
Please review our Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions for details on how we handle your data. We use the data you provide to improve Shredy’s accuracy, but do not input confidential information—it will be deleted. Over time, our tools will improve, much like autonomous vehicles have with time and dedication.
We also have a zero-tolerance policy for misuse. If we detect that a user is generating ineligible reports for SR&ED, we will notify them and delete their account. While we strive to enhance SR&ED submissions, the final responsibility for compliance lies with the user.
