Otago · Applied AI

For Dunedin operators who want a working pilot in weeks, not a year-long programme.

Most of our Dunedin engagements start the same way: a 20-minute call where the owner describes a workflow we've heard before in shape but never in detail. AI staff training is then designed against the detail, not the shape.

What AI staff training actually does

Turn your senior team's brain into interactive training. AI-generated lessons, practice scenarios, and on-the-job coaching that scales without burning out your best people.

  • 01 Auto-generates training modules from your SOPs
  • 02 Voice-based roleplay scenarios for sales and service teams
  • 03 Tracks competency and flags refresher needs
  • 04 Works offline on site or in the truck

Built on: Claude ElevenLabs Vercel AI SDK Mux Postgres

Otago

The Dunedin context, plainly.

  • 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 staff training 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 training tools.

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

What's a typical engagement length for Dunedin 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.

Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?

Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call – fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.

What's the realistic outcome for Dunedin businesses?

New-hire ramp-up cut from 12 weeks to 5 – measurable competency, not just attendance. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.

Can you work with our existing systems?

Yes. The default AI staff training stack we reach for is Claude, ElevenLabs, Vercel AI SDK, Mux, Postgres, 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.

The honest version of a sales call.

No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
