Custom software development in Dunedin.
Business systems built for you, built for businesses operating in Dunedin.
Dunedin runs on health, education and professional services, where every hour lost to paperwork is an hour away from students, patients and clients. We give it back.
Knows the New Zealand rules.
Business systems wired into the tools New Zealand organisations already run, like Xero, so data is entered once and stays consistent.
- Xero, founded in New Zealand
- GST at 15 per cent
- An annual return every year
How Kiwi Dynamics works
We find the one workflow costing Dunedin businesses the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
One workflow.
In production.
In weeks.
What custom software development covers
If we build the right slice first, Dunedin teams feel the difference inside the first month.
- Internal systems for jobs, quotes, stock, rosters and reporting
- Client and supplier portals with proper logins and permissions
- Integrations with Xero, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace and the tools you already run
- Code, data and hosting accounts owned by you from day one
- No shelfware or licences you do not use
- No AI theatre
From one-person trades to national organisations, we find the hours :)
Quotes with GST, consent paperwork, LBP records and health and safety logs: the admin every New Zealand trade business carries.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
What Dunedin runs on.
Dunedin's economy is led by healthcare and social assistance, education and training, and professional, scientific and technical services, and the University of Otago contributes about 15 per cent of the city's GDP.
The University of Otago supports about 9 per cent of Dunedin's workforce. Otago Anniversary Day falls on on or near 23 March.
Definitely not a typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Questions Dunedin businesses ask
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 have proof this works for Dunedin businesses?
Direct case study: We map the process with the people who do the work first, then build the smallest system that replaces the spreadsheet. Happy to walk you through full numbers on a call.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default custom software development stack we reach for is TypeScript, Postgres, Next.js, Cloudflare, Xero API, 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.
Does scheduling handle public holidays?
It should. New Zealand has 11 national public holidays, including Matariki, plus a regional anniversary day that depends on where your business is.
Does it keep up with KiwiSaver changes?
It has to. The minimum employer contribution rose to 3.5 per cent on 1 April 2026 and rises to 4 per cent on 1 April 2028.
