AI fraud detection in Invercargill.
AI fraud detection designed around the way an Invercargill team actually runs.
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.
From Tiwai Point to the dairy sheds, Southland businesses run lean crews. We automate rosters, reporting and invoicing so fewer hours go to the office.
Business in Invercargill.
Southland's economy rests on agriculture and processing, and the New Zealand Aluminium Smelter at Tiwai Point, across the harbour from Bluff, is the country's only aluminium smelter.
Tiwai Point has secured its energy supply to at least 2044. Most New Zealand dairy herds calve in spring, July to September.
Knows the New Zealand rules.
Checks invoices and changed bank details against the supplier you actually deal with, and flags anything that does not match before it is paid.

How much is the admin really costing you?
Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. That could drop to about 52.*

Good questions, answered
What if our Invercargill doesn't have any data ready?
Most don't. Getting the data into shape - ingestion, cleaning, the lightweight contracts you need before any model is useful - is part of the engagement. For AI fraud detection specifically, we typically run that work on Claude, DuckDB, Postgres, Vercel and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
What's the smallest engagement you'd take on?
A two-week paid discovery for Invercargill businesses that aren't sure whether the build is worth doing at all. You get a one-page write-up of what we'd build, what we'd skip, and what it would cost. About 30% of those discoveries end with us recommending you don't proceed.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes - on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. Recovers 3-5x its cost in caught fraud within 6 months.
Can it remind us about the annual return?
Yes. Every company must file an annual return with the Companies Office each year, separate from its tax return.
Do you respond to government tenders?
Most large government contracts are advertised on GETS, the Government Electronic Tender Service, where suppliers register with RealMe.
