AI translation in Paraparaumu.
AI multilingual + te reo - wired into a Paraparaumu workflow, not bolted on the side.

Built around how New Zealand works.
Translates rosters, safety notices and customer messages for staff and customers who work in more than one language.
- Health and safety sits with the business
- Data that stays in New Zealand

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.
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.

Good questions, answered
What's the realistic timeline for AI translation with a Paraparaumu?
Most Paraparaumu 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".
Is AI translation worth it for a smaller Paraparaumu?
Often, yes - and counterintuitively the ROI is sometimes faster than for the big end of town because there's less integration overhead. We'll tell you honestly on the scoping call if it isn't.
What happens if we want to swap a vendor out later?
AI translation 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. Claude, DeepL, ElevenLabs, Vercel are our defaults, but the build is intentionally portable.
What does the Privacy Commissioner expect before we use AI?
Senior leadership sign-off, a check that the tool is necessary and proportionate, and a privacy impact assessment before it goes live.
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.
