AI efficiency audit for accountants.
Built for the accounting firm who's already tried the off-the-shelf option and bounced off it.
The pattern across most accounting firms we work with.
Accounting firms carry seasonal peaks where document chasing and data entry crowd out the advisory work that actually pays.
Client document requests, reconciliations, and deadline reminders are the repetitive load behind every busy season.
Client documents collected, coded and matched to GST periods, monthly, two-monthly or six-monthly, ready for review.
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.
Not your typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Built around how New Zealand works.
We find the admin that repeats every week, like payday filing and GST returns, and automate that first so the hours come back fastest.
- Payday filing, every payday
- GST at 15 per cent
- Xero, founded in New Zealand
Less admin.
More weekend.
No theatre.

Questions accounting firms ask
What does AI efficiency audit cost for an accounting firm?
Pilots start from a fixed scope priced to land a measurable result inside 6 weeks. Pricing depends on data volume, integration complexity, and whether you need us on managed services afterwards. We'll quote precisely after a 30-minute scoping call.
What if our accounting firm 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 efficiency audit specifically, we typically run that work on Claude, Notion, Loom, Linear, Vercel and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
How fast could we have AI efficiency audit in production?
Eight to ten weeks for most accounting firms. Faster if your data is in good shape and slower if we're untangling a legacy integration first. We'll give you a realistic number on the scoping call rather than the optimistic one.
Does it keep up with KiwiSaver changes?
It has to. The minimum employer contribution rose to 3.5 per cent on 1 April 2026 and rises to 4 per cent on 1 April 2028.
Do you work with Xero?
Yes. Xero is one of the systems we build around, and we connect to the other tools you already run rather than asking you to switch.
