We've worked with enough operators in Kerikeri 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.

For Kerikeri operators who want a working pilot in weeks, not a year-long programme.

What's different about doing this work in Kerikeri.
- Kerikeri is horticulture, tourism, and a fast-growing lifestyle community – AI here is about connecting orchard, paddock, and storefront.
- Kiwifruit, citrus, and a steady hospitality scene serving the Bay of Islands. AI tools that work in low-signal areas land best.

How we build AI document processing for a Kerikeri team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Kerikeri business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI for paperwork.
Talk to usThe outcome for Kerikeri teams
We'd call the engagement a success when Kerikeri teams are using the system without thinking about us. Cuts data-entry labour by 80% on invoices, POs, and timesheets.
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
How long does AI document processing take to ship for Kerikeri businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks – narrow scope, real Kerikeri 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.
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.
What's the realistic outcome for Kerikeri businesses?
Cuts data-entry labour by 80% on invoices, POs, and timesheets. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI document processing into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude Vision 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.
