Enterprise software, built by people who've done it before
We're a custom software development company headquartered in Kirkland, WA. Microsoft partner since 2008. Senior engineers on every project. AI-accelerated delivery without compromising on quality.
17+ years. 200+ projects. 50+ engineers. We've seen what works and what doesn't — and we build accordingly.
17 years of building software that enterprises trust
We've never been a generalist IT shop. From day one, Canviz was built around one thing: enterprise custom software on the Microsoft stack, delivered by engineers who've done it before.
That focus has never wavered. The tools have changed — today we use AI to move faster — but the standard hasn't. Senior engineers, production-grade output, enterprise accountability.
Founded as a Microsoft Partner
Canviz was founded with a singular focus: enterprise custom software on the Microsoft stack. From day one, we were a Microsoft partner — not a generalist IT shop.
SharePoint & M365 Specialization
We deepened our Microsoft practice, building complex SharePoint deployments and custom M365 solutions for mid-market and enterprise clients across North America.
Cloud-First, Azure-Native
As Azure matured, so did we. We shifted our entire practice to cloud-native architecture, helping clients modernize legacy systems and build new platforms on Azure.
AI-Accelerated Engineering
When AI coding tools became serious, we didn't wait. Senior engineers led the adoption — building a disciplined methodology that captures the speed without introducing the risk.
AI-assisted. Human-led. Enterprise-accountable.
We adopted AI coding tools early because the speed gains are real. But we didn't change our engineering standards to do it. The process below is what makes the difference between AI-generated code that works and AI-generated code that ships.
Plan first, always
Before a single prompt is written, engineers define the architecture, data model, and interfaces. AI works from a detailed plan — not an open canvas.
This is the most important step. Undirected AI generates plausible-looking code that solves the wrong problem. We don't let that happen.
AI accelerates, engineers govern
Senior engineers use AI tools to generate implementation, suggest approaches, and speed up boilerplate-heavy work. Every output is reviewed.
The engineer is always accountable. AI is a tool, not a decision-maker. No AI-generated code ships without a senior engineer reading it.
Continuous review gates
Code review, testing, and security analysis happen at every stage — not just before release. Quality issues are caught close to where they're introduced.
This is where AI-assisted development fails when done poorly. We treat it like any other code: it has to pass the same bar.
Accountability at every step
A named senior engineer is responsible for every component. Not a team, not a process — a person. That accountability is what makes the output reliable.
We can explain every architectural decision and every line of code to your team or to an auditor. That's what enterprise means.
In the Microsoft ecosystem since before Azure existed
We became a Microsoft partner in 2008 — when SharePoint was the center of the enterprise software world and Azure was still a year away from launch. We've grown with the platform and hold deep expertise across the entire Microsoft stack.
That history matters. It means we know which Microsoft services are production-ready, which require careful architectural consideration, and which enterprise organizations can rely on for the long term.
- Microsoft Solutions Partner since 2008
- Azure infrastructure and migration expertise
- Microsoft 365 & SharePoint development
- Power Platform (Apps, Automate, BI, Copilot Studio)
- Azure OpenAI and AI services implementation
- Trusted for enterprise-grade deployments
Canviz has been a certified Microsoft Solutions Partner for 17+ years — one of the longest-standing Microsoft partnerships in the Pacific Northwest. That longevity reflects real depth, not just a credential.
