Smallburg builds the municipal services infrastructure that rural Ontario has never had — software that connects local inspectors, adjusters, planners, lenders, and communities around the data that matters most: what's on the land, and what's in the buildings.
Find your workspace →Small municipalities have always needed the same things big cities have — asset inspection records, land use history, claims dispatch, workforce credentialing, property compliance data. They just never had the density to justify a city hall that does all of it.
Smallburg is that city hall. A suite of connected applications built on two core datasets — what's in the building, and what the land allows — speaking to each other through a single shared key: the civic address.
Every Smallburg application runs on the same four-step engine. A trigger event occurs. Records are matched to an address. The right information surfaces for the professional who needs to make a decision. The decision becomes a record that feeds the next application downstream.
Smallburg isn't just sold to municipalities. It's designed so that the municipality pays for the platform, and the platform creates work for the people who live there.
Retired planners. Local tradespeople. Young people who would otherwise leave. People who know the community and have had no economic vehicle for that knowledge — until now.
The Commons is Smallburg's knowledge work marketplace. Municipalities post work — digitizing variance applications, capturing inspection records, maintaining dataset currency. Local workers claim that work, complete it, and get paid. The data they produce makes the platform more valuable for everyone.
Every municipality in the Smallburg network has a pre-built workspace. The community profile is already populated. The compliance baseline is ready to be started. All it takes is someone with a municipal email address or local postal code to claim it.
Search by municipality name, county, or postal code prefix.
Smallburg is early. TapLog is live. Farpost is live. The integration between them is running. The rest is being built — carefully, in sequence, from the ground up.
