Cadenora Bridge is purpose-built for the governed space between professional services firms and their external clients.
Bridge connects your internal workspace to your clients' portal — with the compliance layer in between.
Your firm manages documents, sets permissions, and organizes projects in a private workspace built for your industry.
Permissions, audit trails, messaging, and compliance controls — the governed layer that connects your firm to your clients.
Clients view, download, search, and communicate — seeing only what you've explicitly shared with them.
Six core capabilities that cover the full lifecycle of the firm-to-client relationship.
Upload, organize, and version every document your clients will ever need. Categories are fully configurable per industry — from offering memorandums to lease agreements to engagement letters. Automatic processing via Temporal workflows handles extraction, indexing, and notification as soon as a document lands.
This is not email. Cadenora Bridge messaging is append-only, threaded, and compliance-ready. Every message is timestamped, attributed, and permanently recorded. Your clients communicate with you through a governed channel that your compliance officer can review — without forwarding chains or lost context.
Control exactly who sees exactly what — at the document level, not just the folder level. Bridge enforces four visibility levels across every document in your workspace, and clients will only ever see what you've explicitly shared with them. No accidental disclosures. No catch-all folders.
Firm staff only. Never visible to any client.
All clients on this tenant can view.
Only clients in this specific project.
One named client — nobody else.
Search inside the actual content of PDFs, Word documents, and spreadsheets — not just filenames. Powered by Quickwit, a high-performance search engine built for document-heavy workloads. Your clients search only within documents you've shared with them. Your team searches across everything.

Cadenora Bridge installs on any device — iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows, macOS — directly from the browser. No App Store approval. No enterprise MDM enrolment. Your clients add it to their home screen once and it behaves like a native app. You maintain full control of updates without waiting for a review cycle.
Five industry configurations out of the box. When a tenant onboards, they select their industry and Bridge adapts — terminology changes (Investor vs. Resident vs. Client), document categories populate for that practice, and the visual theme shifts to match. No configuration required. No generic labels.
| Industry | Container | Client |
|---|---|---|
| Financial Services | Project | Investor |
| Real Estate Dev. | Development | Investor |
| Property Mgmt. | Property | Resident |
| Legal Services | Matter | Client |
| General | Project | Client |
Labels change across the entire platform — from "Investor" to "Resident" to "Client" — with no custom code.
Five visual themes (Executive, Ember, Horizon, Corporate, Minimal) are applied at onboarding and align with your industry.
Default document categories (Tax, Lease, Pleadings, etc.) are seeded for your industry on day one.
Five independent defensive layers. Regional data residency. Regulatory-ready audit trails. Your compliance officer will have answers — before they're asked.
Platform, workspace, and client portal run in distinct namespaces with separate auth scopes.
Every request is scope-validated at the middleware layer before reaching application code.
tenantId validation, Zod schema enforcement, and write-access guards on every mutation.
Row-level security via PostgreSQL set_config and composite primary keys per tenant.
SeaweedFS object storage with tenantId path prefixes — cross-tenant reads are structurally impossible.
TOTP step-up authentication required for 14 privileged actions. 5-minute token window.
Every access, download, and change is logged with user, timestamp, and context. Immutable records.
All data stored in Canada (Toronto region). No data crosses the border. PIPEDA-compliant by default. SOC 2 Type II on our roadmap.
Architected for Canadian privacy law and securities regulation from day one — not bolted on. GDPR data subject rights supported.
Generic file-sharing tools and CRM portals were not built for the governed relationship between a regulated firm and its clients. Bridge was.
