Most of our Hamilton 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 demand forecasting is then designed against the detail, not the shape.

The Hamilton context, plainly.
- Hamilton sits at the centre of NZ's biggest agri-economy. AI here is about turning farm and supply-chain data into action – fast.
- Dairy, agritech, transport, and a growing professional services sector. Hamilton businesses want AI that works in the ute and on the farm – not just in the office.

How we build AI demand forecasting for a Hamilton team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Hamilton business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI sales + stock forecasting.

Questions
FAQ
How long does AI demand forecasting take to ship for Hamilton businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks – narrow scope, real Hamilton businesses data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
How do you price AI demand forecasting 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 Hamilton businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
What's the realistic outcome for Hamilton businesses?
Stockouts down 35%, overstock down 22% in the first season. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI demand forecasting into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Prophet sits in your account too – we don't operate it from ours.
The honest version of a sales call.
No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
