What Boostalab does

Boostalab (legal entity Solutions Boosta Inc.) is a Quebec-based corporate learning company that has specialized in soft skills training for B2B organizations for over a decade. The company delivers a multi-format training portfolio that includes facilitated group workshops, a proprietary online learning platform called Le Lab, LMS-ready content packages (Kit prêt-à-former), and custom training development services. Training topics span leadership, communication, collaboration, efficiency, and more recently AI adoption, with content produced bilingually in French and English for the Quebec and broader Canadian market.

The company's core technology infrastructure consists of its proprietary Le Lab platform, which sits alongside Talent LMS as the underlying learning management system. Le Lab provides 24/7 access to more than 30 bilingual courses, personalized learner portals, and progress tracking, while complementary tools include the Heatmap Survey diagnostic and the Confessionnal IA engagement platform. Back-office systems include Zoho CRM, Stripe for payment processing, and QuickBooks Online. A distinctive quality evaluation process — a 44-criterion grid applied to every training — underpins content development.

Boostalab monetizes through five primary streams: recurring corporate subscriptions providing unlimited access to the full course library; one-time individual course purchases on the Le Lab storefront starting at approximately $90 per course; fee-for-service group workshops and training boosts; one-time licenses for LMS-ready content; and custom/bespoke training development. Distribution operates via consultative direct sales for enterprise accounts, inside sales for mid-market corporate subscriptions, a self-serve e-commerce storefront for individual learners, and LMS content distribution for organizations with existing learning infrastructure. Named enterprise customers include Cirque du Soleil, Énergir, LOU-TEC, Couche-Tard, Ubisoft, Loto-Québec, Groupe St-Hubert, STM, exo, Croix Bleue, and Beauce Atlas.
