MCP integrations in Motueka.
Built and supported here - the way a Motueka business would actually use it.
When picking starts, Motueka growers take on hundreds of seasonal workers. We automate onboarding, timesheets and payday filing so harvest is not buried in forms.
What Motueka runs on.
Motueka is a horticulture hub that hosts hundreds of seasonal workers at harvest, and horticulture and fruit growing is the Tasman District's biggest export industry.
Motueka is also the name of a hop variety grown in the district. Harvest brings hundreds of seasonal workers for fruit crops and hops.
What MCP integrations actually do
Wire Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini directly into your tools with the Model Context Protocol. With the right workflow automated, nine hours of admin a week could drop to about one.*
*Illustrative example only, based on 9 hours a week of admin falling to about 1 hour a week. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
From one-person trades to national organisations, we find the hours :)
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.

What changes for Motueka 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. Existing AI tools become 10x more useful with real business context. Kiwi Dynamics
How much is the admin really costing you?
Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. That could drop to about 52.*

Questions Motueka businesses ask
What's a typical engagement length for Motueka 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 work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default MCP integrations stack we reach for is MCP, Claude, TypeScript, 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.
Do you respond to government tenders?
Most large government contracts are advertised on GETS, the Government Electronic Tender Service, where suppliers register with RealMe.
What happens when the Holidays Act is replaced?
The Employment Leave Act 2026 replaces it on 6 August 2028. Until then payroll follows the current Holidays Act, so leave calculations need to handle today's rules and the changeover.
