AI demand forecasting in Pukekohe.
Built and supported here - the way a Pukekohe business would actually use it.
What AI demand forecasting actually does
Forecasts that account for school holidays, NZ weather, tourist seasons, and your own promo calendar. With the right workflow automated, nine hours of admin a week could drop to about one.*
*Illustrative example only, based on 9 hours a week of admin falling to about 1 hour a week. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
Pukekohe growers supply vegetables to New Zealand's biggest market all year. We automate orders, packhouse rosters and grower compliance so the trucks leave on time.
How Kiwi Dynamics works
We find the one workflow costing Pukekohe businesses the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
What changes for Pukekohe teams after this lands: the work that used to need a person stays done, the work that needs a person gets done with their attention undivided. Stockouts down 35%, overstock down 22% in the first season. Kiwi Dynamics

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.

Questions Pukekohe businesses ask
How do you price AI demand forecasting 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.
How long does AI demand forecasting take to ship for Pukekohe businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks - narrow scope, real Pukekohe 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.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI demand forecasting into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Prophet sits in your account too - we don't operate it from ours.
Do you respond to government tenders?
Most large government contracts are advertised on GETS, the Government Electronic Tender Service, where suppliers register with RealMe.
Do you work with Xero?
Yes. Xero is one of the systems we build around, and we connect to the other tools you already run rather than asking you to switch.
