App developers in Wānaka.

iOS, Android and web apps, built for businesses operating in Wānaka.

Knows the New Zealand rules.

Apps in New Zealand English that keep working on patchy rural coverage, with personal information handled under the Privacy Act 2020.

  • Serious breaches get reported
  • Personal data sent offshore
  • Payday filing, every payday

Wānaka businesses gear up for ski season from June, then summer visitors. We automate rostering, bookings and guest messages so small teams handle big weeks.

The shape of the result for Wānaka teams: You get a working build on your own phone early in the project, so decisions are made on the real app rather than on slides. Built on Expo, hardened with the rest of the stack as it scales. Kiwi Dynamics

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.

Built differently, on purpose.

We say when AI is not the answer

Production first, demo second

You keep the hours, the data and the system

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

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.*

Straight answers

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 app development?

Plenty. You get a working build on your own phone early in the project, so decisions are made on the real app rather than on slides. 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.

Can you work with our existing systems?

Yes. The default app development stack we reach for is Expo, React Native, Swift, Kotlin, Next.js, Postgres, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run - Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.

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.

Do you work with Xero?

Yes. Xero is one of the systems we build around, and we connect to the other tools you already run rather than asking you to switch.
