AI receptionist in Whanganui.
Built and supported here - the way a Whanganui business would actually use it.
Whanganui's makers, growers and health providers keep the district steady. We automate quoting, production reporting and staff admin so skilled people spend less time on forms.
Small crew or big organisation, the busywork is the same :)
Quotes with GST, consent paperwork, LBP records and health and safety logs: the admin every New Zealand trade business carries.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual 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.*

Business in Whanganui.
Whanganui's biggest industries include manufacturing, healthcare and social assistance, agriculture, forestry and fishing, public administration and retail, and its diverse base leaves it little reliant on tourism.
Whanganui's economic strategy targets transport and freight, training, agriculture, tourism and events, and food and innovation. Wellington Anniversary Day falls on on or near 22 January.
Not your typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
What AI receptionist actually does
A 24/7 AI receptionist that answers calls and chats, books appointments, takes deposits, and routes urgent issues to a real human. 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.

More weekend.
No theatre.

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.
What's a typical engagement length for Whanganui 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.
Anyone else in this space using AI receptionist?
Plenty. Captures the 30-40% of enquiries that used to go to voicemail. 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.
Can it help with health and safety records?
It can keep them organised. A business must notify WorkSafe of notifiable events and keep those records for at least five years.
