Common questions
Before you book the call.
How long does AI recruiting take to ship for Kaikōura businesses? +
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks – narrow scope, real Kaikōura 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 recruiting 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 Kaikōura businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
Has this actually shipped for a real Kaikōura? +
Yes. Time-to-shortlist drops from 3 weeks to 4 days. We'll share comparable engagements on the call.
Who owns the code and the model setup? +
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI recruiting 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.
The honest version of a sales call.
No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
