AI for log graders and scalers who want fewer tabs open, not more.
There's a version of "AI for log graders and scalers" that gets bought off a shelf and quietly stops getting used inside a month.
Small crew or big organisation, the busywork is the same :)
Quotes with GST, consent paperwork, LBP records and health and safety logs: the admin every New Zealand trade business carries.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
AI adoption in this role is still early - which is exactly where the edge is cheapest to win.
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.
An AI agency, minus the theatre.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.

Questions log graders and scalers ask
How fast could we have AI in production?
Eight to ten weeks for most Log Graders and Scalers. Faster if your data is in good shape and slower if we're untangling a legacy integration first. We'll give you a realistic number on the scoping call rather than the optimistic one.
Has this actually shipped for a real log graders and scalers team?
Yes. AI adoption in this role is still early - which is exactly where the edge is cheapest to win We'll share comparable engagements on the call.
What if our log graders and scalers team doesn't have any data ready?
Most don't. Getting the data into shape - ingestion, cleaning, the lightweight contracts you need before any model is useful - is part of the engagement. For AI specifically, we typically run that work on Turn field data into reports, Answer compliance questions, Draft records and summaries, Automate reminders and admin and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
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.
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.
