Otago · Applied AI

AI document processing that lives in your stack, not on a vendor's roadmap. Shipped from Otago.

The reason we take on work in Dunedin is that the businesses here tend to be sharper about what they want than the brief lets on. AI document processing for a Dunedin team almost always ends up looking different to AI document processing for a downtown Auckland one.

What AI document processing actually does

Scanned invoices, signed contracts, handwritten timesheets, PDF specs – extracted into clean data and routed where they belong. No more typing what someone already wrote.

  • 01 Vision models read scans, photos, and handwriting
  • 02 Pushes structured data into Xero, your CRM, or sheets
  • 03 Confidence flags route low-certainty docs to a human
  • 04 Handles te reo, bilingual forms, and old NZ templates

Built on: Claude Vision AWS Textract Mistral OCR Vercel

What we keep seeing in Dunedin.

  • Dunedin pairs a strong university research culture with practical southern businesses. AI here means proven tools, not hype.
  • Education, health, tech, and a tourism shoulder season that hits hard. AI helps Dunedin teams smooth the peaks and protect the people.

We work with teams across Dunedin: CBD · North Dunedin · South Dunedin · Mosgiel · Port Chalmers · Green Island.

How we build AI document processing for a Dunedin team.

We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Dunedin business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI for paperwork.

The outcome for Dunedin teams

Cuts data-entry labour by 80% on invoices, POs, and timesheets. For Dunedin teams, that almost always shows up as fewer interruptions and a calmer week, not a dashboard chart.

Not your typical AI agency.

How much is not automating costing you?

Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. With Kiwi Dynamics, that drops to about 52.

Questions

FAQ

How fast could we have AI document processing in production?

Eight to ten weeks for most Dunedin 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 does AI document processing cost for a Dunedin?

Pilots start from a fixed scope priced to land a measurable result inside 6 weeks. Pricing depends on data volume, integration complexity, and whether you need us on managed services afterwards. We'll quote precisely after a 30-minute scoping call.

Do you have proof this works for Dunedin businesses?

Direct case study: Cuts data-entry labour by 80% on invoices, POs, and timesheets. Happy to walk you through full numbers on a call.

What if our Dunedin 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 document processing specifically, we typically run that work on Claude Vision, AWS Textract, Mistral OCR, Vercel and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
