How It Works

Three steps to your refund.

01

Connect your tools

Link GitHub, Linear, Jira, Notion, Google Drive, and more. We sync the records you connect with scoped read access.

How Shreddit Is Different

Evidence-native from day one.

Continuous, not retroactive

Shreddit syncs with your tools as you work. By the time claim season arrives, your documentation is already done — built from real evidence, not reconstructed months later.

Technically deep

We analyze commit patterns, PR descriptions, ticket lifecycles, and project docs to identify technological uncertainty and systematic investigation — the same evidence a CRA reviewer looks for.

Forward-looking

Shreddit identifies when in-flight projects become SR&ED-eligible and suggests ways to strengthen your claim as you build. We also handle retroactive claim preparation.

Compare Your Options

Why not just use a consultant?

Traditional consultants spend a few hours interviewing your CTO, then write up narratives based on your memory. Shreddit works directly from the technical artifacts — the commits, PRs, tickets, docs, and meeting patterns that prove your R&D happened.

Do It Yourself

  • Complex T661 forms to complete
  • Research CRA requirements yourself
  • Weak documentation without SR&ED expertise
  • Weeks of engineering team time
  • Easy to miss eligible projects

Hire a Consultant

  • 30% of your claim amount
  • 4-hour CTO interviews
  • Retroactive documentation (guessing)
  • Months-long turnaround time
  • High cost, high friction

Use Shreddit

  • 5–10% of your claim
  • Zero developer interruption
  • Evidence-native documentation
  • Contemporaneous evidence, automatically
  • Continuous, not just annual
About SR&ED

Canada's largest R&D incentive.

The Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) program is the Canadian government's largest R&D tax incentive. It refunds businesses for qualifying research and development work performed in Canada.

If your company is a Canadian-Controlled Private Corporation (CCPC), you're eligible for an enhanced 35% refundable investment tax credit on up to $4.5 million of qualified expenditures annually. Refundable means you get cash back from the CRA even if you owe no tax. Most provinces add their own credits on top.

Software development is the single largest SR&ED category — 41% of all claims. If your team is building anything that involves technological uncertainty (which, if you're doing real engineering work, it almost certainly does), you likely qualify.

Why Trust Shreddit

Built for trust.

Minimal access. Purpose-built.

Most integrations use narrow read-only permissions. For GitHub, Shreddit can optionally post or update one PR comment in repos where commenting is enabled. We never touch code, force pushes, or repository settings.
