AI translation in Masterton.

AI translation that lives in your stack, not on a vendor's roadmap. Shipped from Wairarapa.

Knows the New Zealand rules.

Translates rosters, safety notices and customer messages for staff and customers who work in more than one language.

  • Health and safety sits with the business
  • What the Privacy Commissioner expects
  • KiwiSaver now 3.5 per cent

Farms, forestry crews and Martinborough vineyards all do business through Masterton. We automate the quoting, job tracking and invoicing that keeps them supplied.

Small crew or big organisation, the busywork is the same :)

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.

Built differently, on purpose.

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.

Already buried in admin? We'll sort the first workflow for you :)

Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. That could drop to about 52.*

*Illustrative, based on 9 hours a week of admin at a typical 80% automation rate. The calculator uses your own numbers.

Less admin.
More weekend.
No theatre.

What you get

If we build the right slice first, Masterton teams feel the difference inside the first month.

  • Te reo Māori with macron support and reviewed terminology
  • Voice translation for support calls in real time
  • Glossary-locked terms so brand language stays consistent
  • Human-reviewer workflow for high-stakes content
  • No AI theatre
  • No shelfware or licences you do not use

What Masterton runs on.

Agriculture and forestry are the Wairarapa's most important industries, and Masterton is the services and commercial hub for that farming and forestry economy.

Grape growing and winemaking around Martinborough is the core of the Wairarapa's horticulture.

Straight answers

What happens if we want to swap a vendor out later?

AI translation is built behind a small adapter layer specifically so swapping a model provider or a data source is a one-day job, not a re-architecture. Claude, DeepL, ElevenLabs, Vercel are our defaults, but the build is intentionally portable.

What does AI translation cost for a Masterton?

Pilots start from a fixed scope priced to land a measurable result inside 6 weeks. Pricing depends on data volume, integration complexity, and whether you need us on managed services afterwards. We'll quote precisely after a 30-minute scoping call.

Anyone else in this space using AI translation?

Plenty. Expanded customer reach by 22% with multilingual support live. The interesting question is rarely "does it work" - it's "is your team ready to use the output." That's what we'd scope on the call.

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.

Can it keep track of ACC levies?

Yes. ACC work levies are set by the classification unit your work falls under, and self-employed people are invoiced after filing their tax return.
