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.
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.

What AI recruiting actually does
Job ads written for SEEK, Trade Me, and LinkedIn. With the right workflow automated, nine hours of admin a week could drop to about one.*

Where building companies actually lose hours and dollars.
Builders run multiple sites at once, and the paperwork behind each one grows faster than anyone has time to manage.
Variations, supplier orders, and client updates are the admin layer that determines whether a build stays on schedule.
Less admin.
More weekend.
No theatre.

Questions building companies ask
What's the smallest engagement you'd take on?
A two-week paid discovery for building companies 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 tools do you build AI recruiting on?
For AI recruiting we usually reach for Claude, Vapi, Workable, SEEK API, Vercel. We're tool-agnostic at heart - we pick what your building company team can actually run after we hand the build over, not what looks good on a vendor sticker.
Anyone else in this space using AI recruiting?
Plenty. Time-to-shortlist drops from 3 weeks to 4 days. 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.
Will quotes and invoices show GST properly?
Yes. GST is 15 per cent on most goods and services in New Zealand, and anything we build that prices work shows it the way your accounts need.
Can it keep our building records in order?
Yes. Restricted building work must be done or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner, who provides a Record of Building Work, and AI can keep those filed per job.
