Where AI actually helps geophysical data technicians, and where it doesn't.

Most geophysical data technicians we talk to aren't short of software - they're short of an hour back in the day.

What changes for geophysical data technicians week to week

Geophysical Data Technicians sits within Science & Research, one of the sectors we build production AI for.

  • Summarise literature with citations
  • Clean and explore datasets
  • Draft methods and reports
  • Answer questions over your documents

0.01% of all Claude.ai conversations map to this kind of work (Anthropic Economic Index, March 2026).

How much is the admin really costing 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.

Small crew or big organisation, the busywork is the same :)

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.

*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.

By the numbers

Canada's overall AI usage sits at 4.37x its expected level, with Singapore leading at 5.53x.

Adoption is already well ahead of the curve, and the edge goes to whoever turns it into a concrete workflow first.

Built differently, on purpose.

Straight answers, even when the answer is no

One workflow live in weeks, not a programme

Measured in hours back, not slides

*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.

Questions geophysical data technicians ask

What's the realistic outcome for Geophysical Data Technicians?

0.01% of all Claude.ai conversations map to this kind of work (Anthropic Economic Index, March 2026) We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.

What tools do you build AI on?

For AI we usually reach for Summarise literature with citations, Clean and explore datasets, Draft methods and reports, Answer questions over your documents. We're tool-agnostic at heart - we pick what your geophysical data technicians team team can actually run after we hand the build over, not what looks good on a vendor sticker.

What's the smallest engagement you'd take on?

A two-week paid discovery for Geophysical Data Technicians that aren't sure whether the build is worth doing at all. You get a one-page write-up of what we'd build, what we'd skip, and what it would cost. About 30% of those discoveries end with us recommending you don't proceed.

Can it keep track of ACC levies?

Yes. ACC work levies are set by the classification unit your work falls under, and self-employed people are invoiced after filing their tax return.

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.
