AI strategy for plumbers.
AI strategy that fits a plumbing business's week, not the other way around.
Built around how New Zealand works.
We map the recurring New Zealand admin in your week, like GST, payday filing and ACC levies, and pick the one to automate first.
- GST at 15 per cent
- Payday filing, every payday
- ACC levies set by industry
Quotes with GST shown correctly, job sheets and invoices done from the van, so evenings are not spent on paperwork.
Less admin.
More weekend.
No theatre.
What AI strategy covers
If we build the right slice first, plumbing businesses feel the difference inside the first month.
- On-site discovery with the people doing the work
- Ranked initiatives with ROI, effort, and risk
- Tool selection - not married to any vendor
- Phased 90-day plan you can execute or hand off
- No annual contracts
- No AI theatre
Not your typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
What we keep hearing from NZ plumbing businesses.
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 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.

Questions plumbing businesses ask
Will this run on our own infrastructure?
Yes, where it makes sense. AI strategy can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Claude, Notion, Miro, Linear but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
Has this actually shipped for a real plumbing business?
Yes. Most plans pay for themselves in the first build. We'll share comparable engagements on the call.
When does AI strategy actually pay back?
Inside the first quarter, in our experience. We pick the first slice specifically because it's the highest-leverage workflow for a plumbing business - so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.
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.
What does the Privacy Act 2020 mean for AI?
The same rules apply as for any system holding personal information. A breach that could cause serious harm must be reported to the Privacy Commissioner, who expects it within 72 hours.
