We've worked with enough operators in Pukekohe 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 email triage project is sit with your team for a day before we propose anything.
For Pukekohe operators who want a working pilot in weeks, not a year-long programme.
Our goal is to give Pukekohe businesses a three-day weekend, so people can spend more time with their families and the people they love :)
What AI email triage actually does
Inbox gets the AI treatment - drafts replies, files quotes, escalates the urgent, and snoozes the noise. Your team starts the day at zero, not 200 unread.
- 01 Drafts replies in your tone, ready to send
- 02 Auto-files attachments to the right job folder
- 03 Detects complaints and pings the right person
- 04 Weekly digest of what was handled while you slept
Built on: Claude Gmail API Microsoft Graph Vercel

What you actually get
Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. This is what is in the box.
- A working pilot, in productionNot a prototype on someone's laptop. The first slice of AI email triage runs against real work within weeks.
- Your data stays yoursIt runs on your accounts and your tools. If we part ways you keep the system and everything in it.
- The workflow mapped before codeWe write down what good looks like for Pukekohe businesses first, so nobody is guessing at handover.
- Support after it landsThe people who built it stay reachable when the business changes shape around it.
How AI email triage compares
The two things most businesses do instead, and where each one runs out.
| Hiring for it | An off-the-shelf tool | Kiwi Dynamics | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fit to how you work | Fits perfectly, costs a salary | You bend your process to suit the tool | Built around the workflow you already run |
| Time to something useful | Immediate, and permanent | Quick to switch on, slow to make fit | A working slice in weeks, then hardened |
| Who owns the data | You do | The vendor, on the vendor's terms | You do, in your own accounts |
| When it breaks | That person sorts it, if they are in | A support queue and a ticket number | The people who built it |
| What it costs | A salary, every year, forever | Per seat, forever, used or not | Scoped and quoted up front |

How we build AI email triage for a Pukekohe team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Pukekohe business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI inbox manager.
Talk to usHow the work runs
- Find the one workflowWe look for the job costing Pukekohe businesses the most hours or the most leads, and deliberately ignore the rest for now.
- Ship a working sliceA narrow version goes into production in weeks, against real work, so the value shows up before the build is finished.
- Prove it, then widenWe measure it against what the work cost before. If it does not pay for itself, we say so rather than scaling it.
- Harden and hand overLogging, fallbacks and a real handover, so it keeps running when we are not in the room.

FAQ
When does AI email triage actually pay back?
Inside the first quarter, in our experience. We pick the first slice specifically because it's the highest-leverage workflow for a Pukekohe - so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.
How do you price AI email triage 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 Pukekohe businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
What's the realistic outcome for Pukekohe businesses?
Inbox time cut from 2 hours/day to under 30 minutes. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Will this run on our own infrastructure?
Yes, where it makes sense. AI email triage can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Claude, Gmail API, Microsoft Graph, Vercel but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
