Clarity

What Clarity does

Clarity (legal entity: Clarity Hosted Solutions) is a Toronto-based managed cloud, AI, and cybersecurity services provider founded in 1996, serving mid-sized enterprises and scaling organizations across North America. The company operates as a Premier Google Cloud Partner (since 2020) with complementary AWS expertise, delivering a portfolio that spans cloud modernization and migration, AI implementation (Gemini Enterprise, Vertex AI, agentic workflows), 24/7 managed SOC and NOC operations, DevOps-as-a-Service, and Canadian-hosted colocation and data center infrastructure. Its technology stack is built primarily on the Google Cloud ecosystem (BigQuery, Looker, Security Command Center, Mandiant threat intelligence) augmented with AWS capabilities, and the firm holds SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and ISO 27001 aligned certifications to serve regulated healthcare, financial services, and government buyers.

The business model combines recurring subscription managed services (per-device flat-fee IT support, managed cloud subscriptions, managed security), usage-based on-demand support blocks, professional services for migration and AI implementation, and hardware-led colocation revenue. Go-to-market is sales-led via direct enterprise field sales and consultation-driven discovery, with channel leverage through the Google Cloud Premier and AWS partner programs. Marketing emphasizes thought leadership through an active blog, readiness workshops, and 30-minute discovery calls rather than paid acquisition.

Clarity employs 11-50 people, names Raff Bisceglia (Partner & Head of Cybersecurity) as the sole disclosed executive, and references a customer base of 20,000+ scaling teams including FH Health, Longo's, Flipp, Gerrie Electric, Optionality, Pollin, and Wefollo. The company launched its six-step Clarity Cloud Process methodology in September 2025, signaling an effort to productize its delivery framework as it expands AI, AI-Native SecOps, and U.S. market presence alongside its Canadian core.
