Canterbury · Applied AI

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

Most of our Timaru 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 email triage is then designed against the detail, not the shape.

What AI email triage actually does

Inbox gets the AI treatment – drafts replies, files quotes, escalates the urgent, and snoozes the noise. Your team starts the day at zero, not 200 unread.

  • 01 Drafts replies in your tone, ready to send
  • 02 Auto-files attachments to the right job folder
  • 03 Detects complaints and pings the right person
  • 04 Weekly digest of what was handled while you slept

Built on: Claude Gmail API Microsoft Graph Vercel

Canterbury

The Timaru context, plainly.

  • South Canterbury runs on port logistics, food processing, and dairy – AI here is about coordinating shifts and shipments with fewer phone calls.
  • Port of Timaru, food processors, dairy, and a wide trades sector. AI tools that integrate with existing ERP and POS land best.

We work with teams across Timaru: Timaru CBD · Marchwiel · Highfield · Geraldine · Temuka · Pleasant Point.

How we build AI email triage for a Timaru team.

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

Questions

FAQ

When does AI email triage 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 Timaru – 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.

Anyone else in this space using AI email triage?

Plenty. Inbox time cut from 2 hours/day to under 30 minutes. The interesting question is rarely "does it work" – it's "is your team ready to use the output." That's what we'd scope on the call.

Will this run on our own infrastructure?

Yes, where it makes sense. AI email triage can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Claude, Gmail API, Microsoft Graph, Vercel but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.

The honest version of a sales call.

No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
