We've worked with enough operators in Blenheim to know that the brief that arrives in our inbox is rarely the brief that ends up shipped. The first thing we do on any AI strategy project is sit with your team for a day before we propose anything.

What AI strategy actually does
A clear-eyed AI roadmap built for your business – not a generic deck. We sit with your team, map the high-value plays, and write the build order. You leave with a plan you could actually start tomorrow.
- 01 On-site discovery with the people doing the work
- 02 Ranked initiatives with ROI, effort, and risk

Marlborough
Where Blenheim operators actually lose hours.
- Marlborough is wine, aquaculture, and tourism – three industries running on tight margins where AI quickly pays for itself.
- Vineyards, cellar doors, mussel farms, and a thriving cycle-trail tourism economy. AI here means forecasting the season and never missing a booking.
We work with teams across Blenheim: CBD · Renwick · Picton · Havelock · Seddon.

How we build AI strategy for a Blenheim team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Blenheim business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI roadmap + plan.
Talk to usThe outcome for Blenheim teams
We'd call the engagement a success when Blenheim teams are using the system without thinking about us. Most plans pay for themselves in the first build.
Not your typical AI agency.
Honest about what AI can and cannot do
Ships the one workflow that pays for itself
Hours given back, never the size of the invoice
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Questions
FAQ
How long does AI strategy take to ship for Blenheim businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks – narrow scope, real Blenheim businesses data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
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.
Do you have proof this works for Blenheim businesses?
Direct case study: Most plans pay for themselves in the first build. Happy to walk you through full numbers on a call.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI strategy into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude sits in your account too – we don't operate it from ours.
