Kōhanga reo, kura kaupapa and wharekura

Small administrative teams carrying enrolment, attendance, funding returns and Ministry reporting, on top of running the kura.

Where the time goes

  • Enrolment and attendance records that feed funding, entered more than once into more than one system.
  • Ministry of Education returns and audit requirements on a fixed calendar regardless of who is available.
  • Whānau communication in two languages, going out to a list that is never quite current.
  • Board of trustees reporting assembled by hand each cycle.

What we build

  • Attendance and enrolment reconciled once, feeding both the funding return and the board report.
  • Return preparation that assembles the figures and shows its working, for a person to sign off.
  • Bilingual whānau communication drafted for a fluent speaker to correct, never published unreviewed.
  • An archive of the kura’s own documents that can actually be searched.

Te reo Māori is a taonga, not a training corpus. We do not send reo content to a model that trains on it, and anything published in reo is checked by a fluent speaker first.

Tell us what your week actually looks like

We would rather see the real workload than guess at it. The first conversation costs nothing.

Start a conversation

Other organisations we work with

This is a plain description of what these frameworks ask for and how we build to them. It is not legal advice, and it is not a claim of endorsement, accreditation or partnership. Where a framework governs your organisation, take your own advice on it.

Inference that answers to tikanga, not just to a benchmark.

We build and run inference against the six principles of Māori data sovereignty set out by Te Mana Raraunga. For an organisation holding data about its own people, that is not a line at the bottom of a page. It decides where the model runs, what it is allowed to see, and who can switch it off.

Māori data stays Māori owned. Running a model over it does not transfer it, licence it, or turn it into training data.

  • Rangatiratanga

    Authority

    You decide what the model may see and what it may do with it. Access is yours to grant and yours to withdraw, and a withdrawal takes effect at the next inference, not at the next contract review.

  • Whakapapa

    Relationships

    Every output can be traced back to the documents, the records and the rules that produced it. Nothing arrives without a provenance you can follow.

  • Whanaungatanga

    Obligations

    Data gathered for one purpose is not quietly turned to another. A new use is a new conversation with you, not a schema change on our side.

  • Kotahitanga

    Collective benefit

    The gain comes back to the people the data came from, as hours returned to their staff and services that work better for their whānau.

  • Manaakitanga

    Reciprocity

    We leave you able to run it without us. Documentation, handover and the right to take the system elsewhere are part of the build, never an exit fee.

  • Kaitiakitanga

    Guardianship

    We hold your data in trust and never take ownership of it. It does not train our models or anyone else’s, it is returned or destroyed on request, and inference runs somewhere you can point at, on-shore or inside your own tenancy.

The six principles are those of Te Mana Raraunga, the Māori Data Sovereignty Network. The commitments beside them are ours.

Built on three things we don’t bend on.

Honesty

We tell you what AI can and cannot do, then we ship the part that pays for itself.

Speed

Find the one workflow costing the most, ship it to production, prove the return.

Care

Success is hours given back to people and dollars saved. Never the size of the invoice.
