Expert help, on demand.

Chrono gets every claim filing-ready on its own. Add a specialist at any step, always at a flat rate shown upfront.

Narrative & Compliance Review

$2,500

Before you file, a Chrono SR&ED expert pressure-tests your narratives against CRA's current criteria, sharpening the language of technological uncertainty and systematic investigation, and applying the latest policy shifts so you don't have to track them.

Fiscal Optimization

$3,000

A specialist reviews your numbers to maximize the credit: proxy versus traditional method, every eligible salary, subcontractor, and material cost, plus the failed experiments and incremental work companies routinely leave off. You claim the full amount you're entitled to, not a conservative fraction of it.

Strategic Project Structuring

$1,500

A strategist reviews your raw data and shapes your projects into the structure CRA reviews best, neither fragmented into too many thin projects nor collapsed into too few vague ones, reducing red flags before they exist.

CRA Audit & Review Defense

$2,500pre-purchased at filing

Total peace of mind. Roughly 1 in 5 claims gets a closer look from CRA. If yours does, Chrono defense experts step in with your complete evidence file already in hand, managing the review, preparing responses, and defending the technical and financial merits of your claim directly with CRA. Available as a pre-purchased option at filing or on demand when a letter arrives.

Pricing, answered

How much does Chrono R&D cost?

SR&ED claim prep with Chrono R&D starts at a flat $2,000 per claim, no matter the size of your claim or your team. There are no pricing tiers, no success fees, and we never take a percentage of your refund. If you want expert support, you can add it anytime with simple flat-rate pricing.

What's included in the flat fee?

The whole platform, end to end: automated evidence collection, AI-powered technical summaries, CRA audit-ready documentation, 8+ dev-tool integrations, provincial credit calculations, an iFirm-ready CSV export, expert support via chat and email, and white-glove onboarding.

Do I have to buy the expert add-ons?

No. Chrono gets every claim filing-ready on its own. The expert add-ons are there if you want an extra set of eyes. Pricing is always flat and shown upfront, so you're in control of if and when you use them.

How does this compare to a consultant?

Consultants usually take 15% to 25% of your refund. If your claim is worth $200,000, that could mean paying $30,000 to $50,000. Chrono starts at a flat $2,000, and expert add-ons are always a flat fee too. No percentages, no surprises.

Do you support Quebec and provincial credits?

Yes. Provincial credits are included in the flat fee, and the entire product works in French.
