Cromwell businesses don't need another generic AI pitch. AI data analytics only earns its keep when it's built around the workflow you actually run on a wet Tuesday, and that's how we scope every engagement we take on in Central Otago.

Central Otago
What Cromwell teams tell us when they get on a call.
- Central Otago is wine, horticulture, and a tourism corridor that connects Wānaka and Queenstown – AI here turns short seasons into solid years.
- Vineyards, cherry and stone-fruit orchards, and accommodation serving year-round tourist flows. AI tools that handle seasonal staffing earn keep fast.

Talk to us about this →How we build AI data analytics for a Cromwell team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Cromwell business, so value lands before the build is finished. Ask your data in English.

Questions
FAQ
How fast could we have AI data analytics in production?
Eight to ten weeks for most Cromwell businesses. Faster if your data is in good shape and slower if we're untangling a legacy integration first. We'll give you a realistic number on the scoping call rather than the optimistic one.
What's the smallest engagement you'd take on?
A two-week paid discovery for Cromwell 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. Owners check the business in 2 minutes instead of 2 hours.
What if our Cromwell doesn't have any data ready?
Most don't. Getting the data into shape – ingestion, cleaning, the lightweight contracts you need before any model is useful – is part of the engagement. For AI data analytics specifically, we typically run that work on DuckDB, Claude, Metabase, BigQuery, Vercel AI SDK and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
