We've worked with enough operators in Gisborne to know that the brief that arrives in our inbox is rarely the brief that ends up shipped. The first thing we do on any AI lead qualification project is sit with your team for a day before we propose anything.

Questions
FAQ
When does AI lead qualification actually pay back?
Inside the first quarter, in our experience. We pick the first slice specifically because it's the highest-leverage workflow for a Gisborne – so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.
How do you price AI lead qualification engagements?
Fixed-scope pilots first, then either project pricing or a small monthly retainer for the ongoing work. No long lock-ins, no 18-month black-box deals. Most Gisborne businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
What's the realistic outcome for Gisborne businesses?
Sales reps spend 70% less time on dead-end conversations. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Will this run on our own infrastructure?
Yes, where it makes sense. AI lead qualification can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Claude, HubSpot, NZBN API, Twilio, Vercel but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
The honest version of a sales call.
No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
