We've worked with enough operators in Invercargill 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 document processing project is sit with your team for a day before we propose anything.

Built and supported here – the way a Invercargill business would actually use it.
What AI document processing actually does
Scanned invoices, signed contracts, handwritten timesheets, PDF specs – extracted into clean data and routed where they belong. No more typing what someone already wrote.
- 01 Vision models read scans, photos, and handwriting
- 02 Pushes structured data into Xero, your CRM, or sheets
- 03 Confidence flags route low-certainty docs to a human
- 04 Handles te reo, bilingual forms, and old NZ templates
Built on: Claude Vision AWS Textract Mistral OCR Vercel

Why Invercargill businesses are a fit for this.
- Southland businesses are stoic, practical, and patient – AI gets traction when it shows up working, not promised.
- Dairy, aquaculture, manufacturing, and a tight services market. AI in Southland needs to install once and run quietly for years.
We work with teams across Invercargill: CBD · Hawthorndale · Waikiwi · Bluff · Gore · Riverton.
Talk to us about this →How we build AI document processing for a Invercargill team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Invercargill business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI for paperwork.

Not your typical AI agency.
Honest about what AI can and cannot do
Ships the one workflow that pays for itself
Hours given back, never the size of the invoice
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Questions
FAQ
What's a typical engagement length for Invercargill 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.
Anyone else in this space using AI document processing?
Plenty. Cuts data-entry labour by 80% on invoices, POs, and timesheets. The interesting question is rarely "does it work" – it's "is your team ready to use the output." That's what we'd scope on the call.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default AI document processing stack we reach for is Claude Vision, AWS Textract, Mistral OCR, Vercel, 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.
Worth a conversation?
Even if you don't end up working with us, you'll leave the call knowing what's worth building.
