We draft with your builders
Short technical interviews. Uncertainty, failed approaches, iterations. Translated into CRA's language, not marketing speak.
Compare
My Tech Passport vs other SRED firms
Same program. Very different work. We charge 20%. Many firms charge 25-30% for a one-page filing. Here is what you actually get.
Side-by-side comparison
| Dimension | My Tech Passport | Typical other SRED firm |
|---|---|---|
| Success fee | 20% of recovered credits | 25-30% common on similar work |
| What the filing looks like | High-touch technical narrative built from interviews, repos, and real uncertainty | Often one piece of paper. Template language. Same project recycled next year |
| Documentation help | We reorganize how you gather evidence so future claims get stronger | Usually none. You are on your own until next year's invoice |
| Who they serve | Agencies, consultants, software shops, automation firms. Niche owners | "Every industry." Agencies get the five-second no |
| Honesty on what does not qualify | We say it first. Campaigns and creative are out. That builds a defensible claim | Some shops inflate. That is how agencies get burned in review |
| Audit defense | Included in the 20% | Sometimes included. Sometimes a surprise hourly bill |
| Origin story | We were told agencies don't qualify. We filed ourselves and got funded | Built for manufacturers and "real" tech companies first |
Generalizations based on market patterns and client experience. Individual firms vary. CRA decides every claim.
The stakes
Paying more for less is expensive twice
A higher fee on a thinner claim costs you on the invoice and on the credit you never maximized. Blue Collar Marketing's prior firm charged 25%, filed on one page, and planned to do it again. We opened payroll, rebuilt the narrative, and roughly doubled what they could claim.

What "high touch" actually means
We fix the evidence habit
Reorganize documentation so next year's claim is not a forensic dig. One-hour-a-month habits beat annual panic.
We stay for the review
When CRA asks questions, we answer. Defense is inside the fee because a narrative we will not defend is a narrative we should not file.
Vs a generalist SRED firm
They serve everyone. That is the problem.
An agency owner who says "we do marketing" is a five-second disqualification in a volume shop. We look at repos, failed builds, and integrations first.
Vs DIY
Claims fail on framing
Eligibility is often there. The narrative is not. "We built a dashboard" gets denied. Documented uncertainty and experiments get approved. That drafting is the job.
20% for real work. Or keep paying more for a page.
