AI meeting notes in Napier-Hastings.

AI meeting notes designed around the way a Napier-Hastings team actually runs.

Hawke's Bay grows more apples, pears and stone fruit than anywhere else in New Zealand. We automate the packing schedules, export paperwork and staff admin behind it.

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.

What Napier-Hastings runs on.

Farming, horticulture, wine and tourism are Hawke's Bay's key industries, and the region is the country's largest producer of apples, pears and stone fruit, much of it exported through Napier Port.

Napier Port is the main export port for the east coast of the central North Island. Harvest season brings some of Napier Port's highest export volumes.

Built around how New Zealand works.

Straight answers

What if our Napier-Hastings doesn't have any data ready?

Most don't. Getting the data into shape - ingestion, cleaning, the lightweight contracts you need before any model is useful - is part of the engagement. For AI meeting notes specifically, we typically run that work on Whisper, Claude, Recall.ai, Vercel and assume messy starting conditions from day one.

What's the smallest engagement you'd take on?

A two-week paid discovery for Napier-Hastings businesses that aren't sure whether the build is worth doing at all. You get a one-page write-up of what we'd build, what we'd skip, and what it would cost. About 30% of those discoveries end with us recommending you don't proceed.

Anyone else in this space using AI meeting notes?

Plenty. Saves managers ~5 hours a week on follow-up admin. 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.

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.

Can AI help with payday filing?

It can prepare it. Employers file employment information every payday, within 2 working days when filing electronically, and automation can have it ready for a person to check.
