Background

Agency7 was co-founded by Anders Kitson and Salim Aden as a small studio focused on shipping production AI products — not consulting decks, not pitch slides, not white-label resold software. Every system Agency7 builds for clients draws on the same engineering work that produced StudyTree, Rizmataz, Qmsly, and other AI products live in market today.

Anders leads engineering across the stack: realtime voice over ElevenLabs and OpenAI, agentic workflows on Convex, edge-first apps on Cloudflare Workers, and conversion-engineered sites on Next.js. The work spans solo-founder MVPs and production systems serving real users in education, founder networks, regulated industries, and security.

Based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Agency7 serves Edmonton and the surrounding region — Sherwood Park, St. Albert, Leduc, Spruce Grove, Fort Saskatchewan — as well as Calgary and remote Canadian clients.

Areas of expertise

AI Voice Agents

End-to-end voice systems: ElevenLabs realtime, OpenAI realtime API, telephony integration (Twilio, SignalWire), PMS/CRM hookups for clinics, trades, and law firms in Alberta.

AI Software Products

PRD-to-launch builds on Next.js + Convex + OpenAI/Anthropic. Examples shipped to production: StudyTree, Rizmataz, Qmsly, Bookly. Engineering, not reselling.

AI SEO & Generative Engine Optimization

Schema architecture, llms.txt, Article + Person + Organization @id graphs, FAQ taxonomy designed for citation by ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity. Practical, measurable.

AI-Assisted Lead Generation

Conversion-engineered websites + smart forms + CRM automation (HubSpot, Pipedrive, GoHighLevel) + AI follow-up sequences. Built around the Edmonton SMB economic model.

Web Development

Modern Next.js 16 + React 19 + TypeScript + Tailwind. WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility, INP-aware performance, server components done correctly. Sites that load fast and rank.

Canadian Compliance Awareness

Build patterns aware of PIPEDA, Alberta PIPA, Alberta HIA (health), LSAPI (legal), RECA (real estate), and CASL (electronic comms). Compliance as a constraint, not an afterthought.

Position on AI ethics

Agency7 builds AI products that augment human work rather than replace it. Voice agents identify themselves as AI when they answer a phone. Client data stays on client-owned infrastructure wherever possible. PIPEDA, Alberta PIPA, and industry-specific privacy regimes (HIA, LSAPI, RECA, CASL) are treated as constraints to design around, not boxes to tick.

Engagements involving deceptive AI content, unauthorized data collection, or covert AI use are declined. The bar is honest software that makes Edmonton businesses better, not faster slop.
