AI knowledge base in Wellington.
Built and supported here - the way a Wellington business would actually use it.
What Wellington runs on.
Wellington is home to New Zealand's public sector, which makes up 17 per cent of the city's workforce, alongside tech and fintech, gaming, screen, and food and beverage.
Wellington is a UNESCO City of Film, known for its post-production work. Wellington Anniversary Day falls on on or near 22 January.
Wellington runs on government, tech and screen, and most of that work runs on documents. We build AI that reads, drafts and files them, on New Zealand infrastructure.
How it works in Wellington
We find the one workflow costing Wellington businesses the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
What AI knowledge base actually does
Your team's tribal knowledge, finally searchable. 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.
Definitely not a typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
We'd call the engagement a success when Wellington teams are using the system without thinking about us. New staff get to productive 3x faster - less senior-team interruption. Kiwi Dynamics
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.

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.
Will this run on our own infrastructure?
Yes, where it makes sense. AI knowledge base can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Claude, Pinecone, Vercel AI SDK, Postgres, MCP but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
Anyone else in this space using AI knowledge base?
Plenty. New staff get to productive 3x faster - less senior-team interruption. 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 AI help with payday filing?
It can prepare it. Employers file employment information every payday, within 2 working days when filing electronically, and automation can have it ready for a person to check.
How does this fit the Public Service AI Framework?
The framework, led by the Government Chief Digital Officer, asks for safe, transparent and accountable AI. Agencies that sign the Algorithm Charter also commit to transparency in how they use algorithms.
