Questions
FAQ
How quickly can we see something running?
Week three for a clickable internal demo against real data. Week six for a slice your team can actually use. We hold ourselves to those numbers because they're what stops a project drifting into "endless discovery".
What's the smallest engagement you'd take on?
A two-week paid discovery for Ashburton businesses that aren't sure whether the build is worth doing at all. You get a one-page write-up of what we'd build, what we'd skip, and what it would cost. About 30% of those discoveries end with us recommending you don't proceed.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes – on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. Handles 60-70% of routine enquiries without human input.
What tools do you build AI chatbots on?
For AI chatbots we usually reach for Claude, OpenAI, Custom RAG pipelines. We're tool-agnostic at heart – we pick what your Ashburton team can actually run after we hand the build over, not what looks good on a vendor sticker.
