A True Canadian Success Story

Shift was founded in 2016 in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, as a side project under Redbrick, a leading Canadian tech company. What started as an idea quickly turned into a full-fledged tool used by professionals worldwide. And while we’ve expanded globally, our heart and headquarters remain proud to be in Canada.

Yes, Shift has users worldwide, but we’ve never lost sight of where we came from. Our team—made up of 98% Canadians—continues to push the boundaries of what a browser can do, all from our home base in Victoria, BC. And we’re not just making waves in Canada; Shift is currently ranked #1 as the top Canadian browser on SourceForge and SlashDot.
