I make https://voicecast.app/ and I’m based in Toronto :P I also work at https://www.getjobber.com/ which is based in Edmonton.

Voicecast looks awesome. Are you considering a video version?

Thanks for commenting, would’ve never found your product otherwise.

I interviewed at Wrapbook a few years ago and really liked them. They're worth a look! Based out of Toronto, IIRC.

https://www.landr.com/ has been around for a while with its automated audio mastering service and it's now a one-stop-shop for everything related to music production. There's also really cool stuff coming up in a few months:)

Self-serving mention of https://sphyrnasecurity.com/ - we're a bootstrapped cybersecurity company with two main product lines: cross-domain hardware and GRC/IRM software.
