AI compliance monitoring for auto mechanics.
Built for the auto repair shop who's already tried the off-the-shelf option and bounced off it.
Reminders timed to each car's WoF, which from 1 November 2026 moves to every two years for many 4 to 14 year old vehicles.
How much is the admin really costing you?
Nine hours a week of admin is 468 hours a year. That could drop to about 52.*
*Illustrative, based on 9 hours a week of admin at a typical 80% automation rate. The calculator uses your own numbers.
Not your typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
What AI compliance monitoring actually does
AI that watches your forms, calls, contracts, and emails for compliance risk - Health & Safety, Privacy Act, Fair Trading, FMA. 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.
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.

The pattern across most auto repair shops we work with.
Mechanics quote from underneath a car and answer the phone from underneath a car, and one of those always loses.
Booking, quoting, and parts follow-up are the admin layer that decides how many cars a workshop can turn over in a week.
One workflow.
In production.
In weeks.

Questions auto repair shops ask
What's the smallest engagement you'd take on?
A two-week paid discovery for auto repair shops that aren't sure whether the build is worth doing at all. You get a one-page write-up of what we'd build, what we'd skip, and what it would cost. About 30% of those discoveries end with us recommending you don't proceed.
What's the realistic outcome for auto repair shops?
Compliance review effort cut 70% with fewer escalations. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
What if our auto repair shop doesn't have any data ready?
Most don't. Getting the data into shape - ingestion, cleaning, the lightweight contracts you need before any model is useful - is part of the engagement. For AI compliance monitoring specifically, we typically run that work on Claude, Vercel, Postgres, AWS S3 and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
Is our data kept in New Zealand?
Kiwi Dynamics hosts its own infrastructure in New Zealand, under New Zealand governance. If personal information ever has to go offshore, privacy principle 12 requires comparable protection.
Will it work alongside Fergus or Tradify?
We build around the tools you already run instead of replacing them. Fergus and Tradify are both job management tools built in New Zealand for trades.
