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.
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.
Napier-Hastings, up close.
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.
Made for New Zealand paperwork.
Apps built around how your staff and customers actually work, with personal information handled under the Privacy Act 2020.

Straight answers
What's the realistic timeline for iOS app development with a Napier-Hastings?
Most Napier-Hastings businesses have their first usable slice in week 5 or 6. We'd rather ship narrow and real than broad and aspirational - your team gets to use the thing well before the engagement is "done".
What's the realistic outcome for Napier-Hastings businesses?
We ship to TestFlight in the first fortnight, so you hold the app before you commit to the build. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
What happens if we want to swap a vendor out later?
iOS app development 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. Swift, SwiftUI, Expo, TestFlight, App Store Connect are our defaults, but the build is intentionally portable.
What does the Privacy Act 2020 mean for AI?
The same rules apply as for any system holding personal information. A breach that could cause serious harm must be reported to the Privacy Commissioner, who expects it within 72 hours.
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.
