AI strategy in Rotorua.
Built and supported here - the way a Rotorua business would actually use it.
Rotorua runs on forestry, wood processing and one of the country's busiest visitor economies. We build AI that handles bookings, timber orders and the reporting behind both.
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.

How it works in Rotorua
We find the one workflow costing Rotorua 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 AI strategy actually does
A clear-eyed AI roadmap built for your business - not a generic deck. 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.

An AI agency, minus the theatre.

Questions Rotorua businesses ask
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes - on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. Most plans pay for themselves in the first build.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI strategy into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude sits in your account too - we don't operate it from ours.
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
Do you respond to government tenders?
Most large government contracts are advertised on GETS, the Government Electronic Tender Service, where suppliers register with RealMe.
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.
