Custom software development in Masterton.
Business systems built for you, built for businesses operating in Masterton.
Farms, forestry crews and Martinborough vineyards all do business through Masterton. We automate the quoting, job tracking and invoicing that keeps them supplied.
Made for New Zealand paperwork.
Business systems wired into the tools New Zealand organisations already run, like Xero, so data is entered once and stays consistent.
- Xero, founded in New Zealand
- GST at 15 per cent
- Payday filing, every payday
How the work runs
We find the one workflow costing Masterton businesses the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
Less admin.
More weekend.
No theatre.
What you get
We map the process with the people who do the work first, then build the smallest system that replaces the spreadsheet.
- Internal systems for jobs, quotes, stock, rosters and reporting
- Client and supplier portals with proper logins and permissions
- Integrations with Xero, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace and the tools you already run
- Code, data and hosting accounts owned by you from day one
- No AI theatre
- No shelfware or licences you do not use
Masterton, up close.
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.
On the tools or running at scale, the admin still eats the week :)
Quotes with GST, consent paperwork, LBP records and health and safety logs: the admin every New Zealand trade business carries.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
Built differently, on purpose.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Straight answers
Will this run on our own infrastructure?
Yes, where it makes sense. Custom software development can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to TypeScript, Postgres, Next.js, Cloudflare, Xero API but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
How do you price custom software development 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 Masterton businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
Do you have proof this works for Masterton businesses?
Direct case study: We map the process with the people who do the work first, then build the smallest system that replaces the spreadsheet. Happy to walk you through full numbers on a call.
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.
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.
