Most of our Kerikeri engagements start the same way: a 20-minute call where the owner describes a workflow we've heard before in shape but never in detail. AI quoting is then designed against the detail, not the shape.

Built and supported here – the way a Kerikeri business would actually use it.
What AI quoting actually does
Customers send a photo, a brief, or a voicemail – AI drafts a structured quote in your pricing format. You review, tweak, send. Quotes go out the same day, not next week.
- 01 Reads photos, voice notes, emails, and PDFs
- 02 Uses your pricing rules and current material costs
- 03 Drafts in your branded template, ready to send
- 04 Tracks win/loss to make the next quote sharper

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 quoting 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-generated quotes.
Talk to usThe outcome for Kerikeri teams
What changes for Kerikeri teams after this lands: the work that used to need a person stays done, the work that needs a person gets done with their attention undivided. Quote turnaround drops from days to under an hour.
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
What's a typical engagement length for Kerikeri businesses?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
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.
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. Quote turnaround drops from days to under an hour.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default AI quoting stack we reach for is Claude Vision, Whisper, Xero, Vercel, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run – Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.
