WinterHowl Studios Ltd.

A Canadian software studio

We develop and operate our own products and projects—software, websites, games, and more. We also take on contracts and projects to help bring others ideas to life.

About WinterHowl

WinterHowl Studios is a software studio based in Edmonton. We create and operate our own products and projects—software, websites, games, and more.

Studio work

Our products & projects

Most of our energy goes into work we own: products like Shift, internal tools, sites, and experiments we develop and run ourselves—from idea through launch and beyond.

Partnerships

Client work & contracts

When a contract or collaboration makes sense, we bring an exclusive experience and the same high standards we apply to our own products—clear scope, honest timelines, and software meant to last.

Our standards

WinterHowl is a software studio, not an ad network or a data broker. These commitments apply to our products and the way we run our business.

No ads

No ad networks, no selling attention, and no promotional content injected into your workflow.

Ethical pricing

Clear subscriptions and quotes—no dark patterns, surprise lock-in, or selling your data to make margin.

We never sell your data

We do not sell, rent, or broker personal information—ever. Your data runs the service you signed up for.

No generative AI in what we ship

No generative AI in the software, copy, art, music, or features we deliver—human-directed work, not opaque automation.

We may use AI-assisted dev tools internally; that stays in our workflow, not in your product.

Security & privacy

Sensible technical and organizational protections for accounts and data. See our Privacy Policy.

Services

We work across software, websites, games, and integrations—as a studio that owns what it builds, chooses partnerships carefully, and stays involved after launch.

What we work on

  • Software

    Web apps, internal tools, dashboards, and custom platforms.

  • Websites

    Marketing sites, product pages, and content-driven experiences.

  • Games

    Interactive experiences—studio projects and selective collaborations.

  • Integrations

    APIs, legacy bridges, and data work between your existing tools.

How we work

  • Own what we make

    Products and projects developed in-house—from concept through operation.

  • Choose partnerships carefully

    Client work when scope is clear and the collaboration is mutual.

  • Stay involved

    Maintenance and follow-through—not a handoff and a goodbye.

Our products

Software we develop and operate as a studio—the same care we bring to every project we take on.
