Most of our Whakatāne 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 data analytics is then designed against the detail, not the shape.

How we build AI data analytics for a Whakatāne team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Whakatāne business, so value lands before the build is finished. Ask your data in English.
Talk to usThe outcome for Whakatāne teams
Owners check the business in 2 minutes instead of 2 hours. For Whakatāne teams, that almost always shows up as fewer interruptions and a calmer week, not a dashboard chart.
Not your typical AI agency.
Honest about what AI can and cannot do
Ships the one workflow that pays for itself
Hours given back, never the size of the invoice
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Questions
FAQ
What's a typical engagement length for Whakatāne 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.
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 data analytics?
Plenty. Owners check the business in 2 minutes instead of 2 hours. 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 AI data analytics stack we reach for is DuckDB, Claude, Metabase, BigQuery, Vercel AI SDK, 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.
Worth a conversation?
Even if you don't end up working with us, you'll leave the call knowing what's worth building.
