AI demand forecasting in Waiheke Island.
AI sales + stock forecasting, built for businesses operating in Waiheke Island.
Waiheke fills up every summer with visitors heading for the vineyards and beaches. We automate bookings, enquiries and seasonal staff admin for the island's small teams.
On the tools or running at scale, the admin still eats the week :)
The questions a public sector buyer asks, answered up front: privacy impact, the NZISM, where the data lives and how an algorithm is held to account.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
How much is the admin really costing 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.
What AI demand forecasting actually does
Forecasts that account for school holidays, NZ weather, tourist seasons, and your own promo calendar. With the right workflow automated, nine hours of admin a week could drop to about one.*
*Illustrative example only, based on 9 hours a week of admin falling to about 1 hour a week. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
Built differently, on purpose.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
What Waiheke Island runs on.
Tourism is an important part of the Waiheke economy, with visitors drawn to its beaches and boutique vineyards, and up to a quarter of adult summer residents work in tourism-related jobs.
Waiheke is a 35-minute ferry ride from Auckland's city centre. The island's population swells every summer with visitors.

Questions Waiheke Island businesses ask
What's a typical engagement length for Waiheke Island 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.
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. Stockouts down 35%, overstock down 22% in the first season.
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.
Do you respond to government tenders?
Most large government contracts are advertised on GETS, the Government Electronic Tender Service, where suppliers register with RealMe.
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.
