What Kaikōura runs on.
Tourism, directly and indirectly, is the major contributor to Kaikōura's GDP, built on whales, the coastline and crayfish, alongside the district's fishing and farming heritage.
A deep undersea canyon brings Giant Sperm Whales close to the coast, and Whale Watch has run since 1987.
Questions Kaikōura businesses ask
When does AI HR assistant 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 Kaikōura - so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.
What's the realistic outcome for Kaikōura businesses?
HR enquiries drop 65% in the first month - leaders get their week back. 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 HR assistant can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Claude, Employment Hero API, BambooHR, Vercel but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
Do you work with Xero?
Yes. Xero is one of the systems we build around, and we connect to the other tools you already run rather than asking you to switch.
What does the Privacy Act 2020 mean for AI?
The same rules apply as for any system holding personal information. A breach that could cause serious harm must be reported to the Privacy Commissioner, who expects it within 72 hours.
