Mobile app development in Tauranga.
Built and supported here - the way a Tauranga business would actually use it.
Knows the New Zealand rules.
Mobile apps that keep working with patchy coverage and sync later, built for crews working outside the main centres.
- Serious breaches get reported
- 11 public holidays, plus yours
- GST at 15 per cent
Tauranga ships the forestry, kiwifruit and dairy that fill New Zealand's export vessels. We automate the logistics paperwork, packhouse rosters and invoicing behind every container.
From one-person trades to national organisations, we find the hours :)
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.
How the work runs
We find the one workflow costing Tauranga businesses the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
One workflow.
In production.
In weeks.
What you get
We'd call the engagement a success when Tauranga teams are using the system without thinking about us.

- We handle App Store and Google Play submission and review
- Works offline in the ute, syncs when the signal comes back
- Push notifications your team will actually read, not noise
- No annual contracts
- No shelfware or licences you do not use
What Tauranga runs on.
The Port of Tauranga is New Zealand's largest export port, and forestry, kiwifruit and dairy make up almost 75 per cent of its exports.
Most of New Zealand's kiwifruit crop is exported through the Port of Tauranga. Kiwifruit picking and packhouse work run from about March to mid-June.
Not your typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Good questions, answered
How long does mobile apps take to ship for Tauranga businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks - narrow scope, real Tauranga businesses data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
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 first releases are in the stores inside 8 weeks, not 8 months.
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.
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.
What does the Privacy Act 2020 mean for AI?
The same rules apply as for any system holding personal information. A breach that could cause serious harm must be reported to the Privacy Commissioner, who expects it within 72 hours.
