AI knowledge base in Gisborne.
Internal AI knowledge base, built for businesses operating in Gisborne.
Cyclone Gabrielle hit about half of Tairāwhiti's horticulture land. As businesses rebuild, we automate the quoting, reporting and scheduling that eats the week.
An AI agency, minus the theatre.

Business in Gisborne.
Tairāwhiti's economy is dominated by the primary sector, with agriculture, horticulture and forestry around 20 per cent of direct GDP, and more than a quarter of the regional economy depends directly on Eastland Port.
More than one in four households in the region has someone whose job depends on forestry.
Made for New Zealand paperwork.
Policies, job manuals and compliance records in one place staff can ask, including Records of Building Work for restricted work.
- Restricted work needs an LBP
- Payday filing, every payday
- The Algorithm Charter
Small crew or big organisation, the busywork is the same :)
The questions a public sector buyer asks, answered up front: privacy impact, the NZISM, where the data lives and how an algorithm is held to account.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
The shape of the result for Gisborne teams: New staff get to productive 3x faster - less senior-team interruption. Built on Claude, hardened with the rest of the stack as it scales. Kiwi Dynamics
How the work runs
We find the one workflow costing Gisborne businesses the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
Questions Gisborne businesses ask
What's a typical engagement length for Gisborne 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.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default AI knowledge base stack we reach for is Claude, Pinecone, Vercel AI SDK, Postgres, MCP, 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.
Can it keep track of ACC levies?
Yes. ACC work levies are set by the classification unit your work falls under, and self-employed people are invoiced after filing their tax return.
What happens when the Holidays Act is replaced?
The Employment Leave Act 2026 replaces it on 6 August 2028. Until then payroll follows the current Holidays Act, so leave calculations need to handle today's rules and the changeover.
