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

Book a demo

The version of semantic search (RAG) that works for a Tauranga business is rarely the version a national vendor would sell you. We build the one that fits how your team actually operates – usually with fewer parts than the off-the-shelf pitch.

What semantic search (RAG) actually does

Search that understands intent, not just keywords. Your team types what they mean – and gets the right document, ticket, or product from across every system, with citations.

  • 01 Indexes Drive, SharePoint, Notion, Slack, your CRM
  • 02 Returns answers with source links – no hallucinations
  • 03 Permissioned so staff only see what they should
  • 04 Re-indexes nightly so results stay fresh

Built on: Pinecone Claude Postgres pgvector Vercel AI SDK

Bay of Plenty

Where Tauranga operators actually lose hours.

  • Tauranga is one of NZ's fastest-growing cities – and with growth comes admin. AI here clears the backlog so teams can keep up.
  • Horticulture, marine, logistics through the Port of Tauranga, and a booming services scene. Local businesses want AI that scales with seasonal swing.

We work with teams across Tauranga: Mount Maunganui · Papamoa · Bethlehem · Greerton · Tauriko · Te Puke · Katikati.

How we build semantic search (RAG) 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 search over your data.

The outcome for Tauranga teams

We'd call the engagement a success when Tauranga teams are using the system without thinking about us. Average search time drops from 6 minutes to 12 seconds.

Not your typical AI agency.

*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.

How much is not automating costing you?

Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. With Kiwi Dynamics, that drops to about 52.

Questions

FAQ

How long does semantic search (RAG) 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.

How do you price semantic search (RAG) engagements?

Fixed-scope pilots first, then either project pricing or a small monthly retainer for the ongoing work. No long lock-ins, no 18-month black-box deals. Most Tauranga businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.

What's the realistic outcome for Tauranga businesses?

Average search time drops from 6 minutes to 12 seconds. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.

Who owns the code and the model setup?

You do, on delivery. We deploy semantic search (RAG) into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Pinecone sits in your account too – we don't operate it from ours.
