Waikato · Applied AI

Built and supported here – the way a Taupō business would actually use it.

We've worked with enough operators in Taupō 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 HR assistant project is sit with your team for a day before we propose anything.

Where Taupō operators actually lose hours.

  • Taupō is tourism, geothermal, and a fast-growing retirement and lifestyle scene – businesses here juggle seasonal staff and high expectations.
  • Hospitality, accommodation, adventure tourism, and trades supporting a building boom. AI helps the small-team operators look big.

We work with teams across Taupō: CBD · Acacia Bay · Kinloch · Turangi · Whakatane.

How we build AI HR assistant for a Taupō team.

We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Taupō business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI HR and people ops.

Questions

FAQ

When does AI HR assistant 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 Taupō – so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.

Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?

Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call – fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.

Has this actually shipped for a real Taupō?

Yes. HR enquiries drop 65% in the first month – leaders get their week back. We'll share comparable engagements on the call.

Will this run on our own infrastructure?

Yes, where it makes sense. AI HR assistant can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Claude, Employment Hero API, BambooHR, Vercel but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.

Worth a conversation?

Even if you don't end up working with us, you'll leave the call knowing what's worth building.
