AI in Timaru.
Our goal is to give Timaru businesses a three-day weekend, so people can spend more time with their families and the people they love :)
Timaru processes dairy, meat, vegetables and beer for export through PrimePort. We automate the shift rosters, supplier paperwork and reporting those plants run on.
Not your typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Business in Timaru.
Food and fibre drive South Canterbury, and PrimePort handled $1.1 billion of exports in 2021, 99 per cent of them food and fibre products.
Fonterra's Clandeboye dairy factory and McCain's food processing plant are both in the district. Dominion Day (South Canterbury Anniversary) falls on the fourth Monday in September.
Already buried in admin? We'll sort the first workflow for you :)
Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. That could drop to about 52.*
*Illustrative, based on 9 hours a week of admin at a typical 80% automation rate. The calculator uses your own numbers.

Straight answers
What do you actually build?
AI agents, automation, custom apps, knowledge systems and voice AI, grounded in your own data and wired into how your team already operates.
How do we get started?
Book a short call. Tell us the workflow costing your Timaru business the most time or leads, and we come back with how we would fix it inside one working day.
Do you work with businesses in Timaru?
Yes. Kiwi Dynamics builds and supports AI for Timaru businesses, from the first scoping call through to a system running in production.
Can it remind us about the annual return?
Yes. Every company must file an annual return with the Companies Office each year, separate from its tax return.
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.
