There is a version of AI document processing that plumbing businesses buy off a shelf and quietly stop using inside a month. Then there's the version that's wired into your real workflow, owned by a person on your team, and still in use a year later. We only build the second one.
AI for paperwork, built around how a plumbing business actually works.
Our goal is to give plumbing businesses a three-day weekend, so people can spend more time with their families and the people they love :)
What AI document processing actually does
Scanned invoices, signed contracts, handwritten timesheets, PDF specs - extracted into clean data and routed where they belong. No more typing what someone already wrote.
- 01 Vision models read scans, photos, and handwriting
- 02 Pushes structured data into Xero, your CRM, or sheets
- 03 Confidence flags route low-certainty docs to a human
- 04 Handles te reo, bilingual forms, and old NZ templates
Built on: Claude Vision AWS Textract Mistral OCR Vercel

What you actually get
Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. This is what is in the box.
- A working pilot, in productionNot a prototype on someone's laptop. The first slice of AI document processing runs against real work within weeks.
- Your data stays yoursIt runs on your accounts and your tools. If we part ways you keep the system and everything in it.
- The workflow mapped before codeWe write down what good looks like for plumbing businesses first, so nobody is guessing at handover.
- Support after it landsThe people who built it stay reachable when the business changes shape around it.
How AI document processing compares
The two things most businesses do instead, and where each one runs out.
| Hiring for it | An off-the-shelf tool | Kiwi Dynamics | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fit to how you work | Fits perfectly, costs a salary | You bend your process to suit the tool | Built around the workflow you already run |
| Time to something useful | Immediate, and permanent | Quick to switch on, slow to make fit | A working slice in weeks, then hardened |
| Who owns the data | You do | The vendor, on the vendor's terms | You do, in your own accounts |
| When it breaks | That person sorts it, if they are in | A support queue and a ticket number | The people who built it |
| What it costs | A salary, every year, forever | Per seat, forever, used or not | Scoped and quoted up front |
Plumbing businesses need software built around their week, not against it.
- Plumbers lose jobs to whoever answers the phone first, and most calls come in while they're already under a sink.
- Missed calls, slow quotes, and unchased invoices are the three leaks that cost plumbing businesses the most money.
How we build AI document processing for plumbing businesses.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for a plumbing business business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI for paperwork.
Talk to usHow the work runs
- Find the one workflowWe look for the job costing plumbing businesses the most hours or the most leads, and deliberately ignore the rest for now.
- Ship a working sliceA narrow version goes into production in weeks, against real work, so the value shows up before the build is finished.
- Prove it, then widenWe measure it against what the work cost before. If it does not pay for itself, we say so rather than scaling it.
- Harden and hand overLogging, fallbacks and a real handover, so it keeps running when we are not in the room.
The outcome for plumbing businesses
Cuts data-entry labour by 80% on invoices, POs, and timesheets. For plumbing businesses, that almost always shows up as fewer interruptions and a calmer week, not a dashboard chart.

FAQ
How long does AI document processing take to ship for plumbing businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks - narrow scope, real plumbing businesses data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
How do you price AI document processing engagements?
Fixed-scope pilots first, then either project pricing or a small monthly retainer for the ongoing work. No long lock-ins, no 18-month black-box deals. Most plumbing businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
Do you have proof this works for plumbing businesses?
Direct case study: Cuts data-entry labour by 80% on invoices, POs, and timesheets. Happy to walk you through full numbers on a call.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI document processing into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude Vision sits in your account too - we don't operate it from ours.
