AI knowledge base in Kaikōura.
For Kaikōura operators who want a working pilot in weeks, not a year-long programme.
Kaikōura welcomes around a million visitors a year. We automate bookings, enquiries and reviews so small teams keep up with big seasons.
Not your typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
How Kiwi Dynamics works
We find the one workflow costing Kaikōura businesses the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
From one-person trades to national organisations, we find the hours :)
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.
Business in Kaikōura.
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.
Knows the New Zealand rules.
Policies, job manuals and compliance records in one place staff can ask, including Records of Building Work for restricted work.
- Restricted work needs an LBP
- An annual return every year
- Data that stays in New Zealand
If we build the right slice first, Kaikōura teams feel the difference inside the first month. New staff get to productive 3x faster - less senior-team interruption. Kiwi Dynamics
Straight answers
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI knowledge base into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude sits in your account too - we don't operate it from ours.
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. New staff get to productive 3x faster - less senior-team interruption.
Can AI help with payday filing?
It can prepare it. Employers file employment information every payday, within 2 working days when filing electronically, and automation can have it ready for a person to check.
Does scheduling handle public holidays?
It should. New Zealand has 11 national public holidays, including Matariki, plus a regional anniversary day that depends on where your business is.
