How it helps your Christchurch team
What you actually get.
- Combines your sales history with weather, calendar, and event data
- Per-SKU and per-store forecasts, not whole-business averages
- Re-forecasts weekly as new data comes in

The version of AI demand forecasting that works for a Christchurch business is rarely the version a national vendor would sell you. We build the one that fits how your team actually operates – usually with fewer parts than the off-the-shelf pitch.
If we build the right slice first, Christchurch teams feel the difference inside the first month. Stockouts down 35%, overstock down 22% in the first season.
What's different about doing this work in Christchurch.

Common questions
Before you book the call.
How long does AI demand forecasting take to ship for Christchurch businesses? +
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks – narrow scope, real Christchurch 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.
How do you price AI demand forecasting engagements? +
Fixed-scope pilots first, then either project pricing or a small monthly retainer for the ongoing work. No long lock-ins, no 18-month black-box deals. Most Christchurch businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
Has this actually shipped for a real Christchurch? +
Yes. Stockouts down 35%, overstock down 22% in the first season. We'll share comparable engagements on the call.
Who owns the code and the model setup? +
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI demand forecasting into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Prophet sits in your account too – we don't operate it from ours.
The honest version of a sales call.
No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
