Most of our Tauranga engagements start the same way: a 20-minute call where the owner describes a workflow we've heard before in shape but never in detail. AI HR assistant is then designed against the detail, not the shape.

How we build AI HR assistant for a Tauranga team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Tauranga business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI HR and people ops.
Talk to usThe outcome for Tauranga teams
HR enquiries drop 65% in the first month – leaders get their week back. For Tauranga teams, that almost always shows up as fewer interruptions and a calmer week, not a dashboard chart.
Not your typical AI agency.
Honest about what AI can and cannot do
Ships the one workflow that pays for itself
Hours given back, never the size of the invoice
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Questions
FAQ
What's a typical engagement length for Tauranga businesses?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
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.
What's the realistic outcome for Tauranga businesses?
HR enquiries drop 65% in the first month – leaders get their week back. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default AI HR assistant stack we reach for is Claude, Employment Hero API, BambooHR, Vercel, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run – Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.
Worth a conversation?
Even if you don't end up working with us, you'll leave the call knowing what's worth building.
