We've worked with enough operators in Nelson to know that the brief that arrives in our inbox is rarely the brief that ends up shipped. The first thing we do on any AI recruiting project is sit with your team for a day before we propose anything.

Nelson-Tasman

The Nelson context, plainly.

  • Nelson is creative, outdoorsy, and full of clever small businesses – AI here is about giving owner-operators their evenings back.
  • Aquaculture, hops, tourism, and a deep creative sector. Nelson teams want tools that fit a smaller crew without enterprise overhead.

We work with teams across Nelson: CBD · Stoke · Tahunanui · Richmond · Motueka · Brightwater.

How we build AI recruiting for a Nelson team.

We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Nelson business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI candidate screening.

The outcome for Nelson teams

Time-to-shortlist drops from 3 weeks to 4 days. For Nelson teams, that almost always shows up as fewer interruptions and a calmer week, not a dashboard chart.

Not your typical AI agency.

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

How much is not automating costing you?

Questions

FAQ

How long does AI recruiting take to ship for Nelson businesses?

We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks – narrow scope, real Nelson businesses data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.

How do you price AI recruiting 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 Nelson businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.

What's the realistic outcome for Nelson businesses?

Time-to-shortlist drops from 3 weeks to 4 days. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.

Who owns the code and the model setup?

You do, on delivery. We deploy AI recruiting into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude sits in your account too – we don't operate it from ours.

The honest version of a sales call.

No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
