What web design and build covers
If we build the right slice first, Auckland teams feel the difference inside the first month.

- Build on a stack you can host cheaply and edit safely
- Analytics and lead routing wired in from day one

Quotes with GST, consent paperwork, LBP records and health and safety logs: the admin every New Zealand trade business carries.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
How much is the admin really costing you?
Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. That could drop to about 52.*

Straight answers
What's a typical engagement length for Auckland businesses?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default web design and build stack we reach for is Astro, Cloudflare Pages, Figma, Claude, Plausible, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run - Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
Can AI help with payday filing?
It can prepare it. Employers file employment information every payday, within 2 working days when filing electronically, and automation can have it ready for a person to check.
What happens when the Holidays Act is replaced?
The Employment Leave Act 2026 replaces it on 6 August 2028. Until then payroll follows the current Holidays Act, so leave calculations need to handle today's rules and the changeover.
