Cogcentric Labs

What Cogcentric Labs does

Cogcentric Labs is a privately held Canadian software company founded in 2009 and operating under the brand name Fabric LMS. The company sells a cloud-based Learning Management System (LMS) to businesses across four primary verticals — Restaurant, Sport/Athletics, Hospitality, and Retail — enabling them to create, deliver, and track employee training programs. Fabric LMS supports multi-modal course content (text, images, video, simulations, SCORM packages, downloadable resources) and provides role-based personalization, automated reminders, progress tracking, and competency reporting. The platform is delivered via a web-based responsive interface compatible across devices.

The product architecture centers on three workflows — Create, Train, Manage — and bundles course authoring, delivery across multiple modes (e-learning, assessments, in-person evaluations, live events), and administrative analytics. Cogcentric positions the platform's differentiation around human support and guided setup rather than pure self-service, though it also offers a free trial onboarding path. Notable customers disclosed on the company website include Boston Pizza, Century 21, White Spot, USSSA, BC Tech Association, and the US Swim School Association, with testimonials emphasizing responsive service and custom programming.

The business model is subscription-based SaaS with non-publicly-disclosed pricing; prospects are directed to a dedicated pricing page for quotes, consistent with mid-market sales-assisted contracts. The go-to-market combines content marketing (blog, case studies, LinkedIn community), self-serve free trials, and demo-driven sales conversations. The company operates with 1-10 employees out of Surrey, Canada, and has no disclosed funding rounds, institutional investors, M&A activity, or patent portfolio in the input data.
