Every accounting firm business we've worked with has a different definition of "broken". AI translation only earns its keep when it solves the specific definition you'd give it on a bad day - which is why our first call is mostly listening.
Built for the accounting firm who's already tried the off-the-shelf option and bounced off it.
Our goal is to give accounting firms a three-day weekend, so people can spend more time with their families and the people they love :)
What AI translation actually does
Reach more of Aotearoa. AI translation for te reo Māori, Samoan, Tongan, Mandarin, Hindi, and more - with cultural nuance, not Google-Translate stiffness.
- 01 Te reo Māori with macron support and reviewed terminology
- 02 Voice translation for support calls in real time

- 04 Human-reviewer workflow for high-stakes content
Built on: Claude DeepL ElevenLabs 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 translation 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 accounting firms 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 translation 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 |
The shape of every accounting firm brief we've seen.
- 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.
How we build AI translation for accounting firms.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for an accounting firm business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI multilingual + te reo.
Talk to usHow the work runs
- Find the one workflowWe look for the job costing accounting firms 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 accounting firms
Expanded customer reach by 22% with multilingual support live. For accounting firms, that almost always shows up as fewer interruptions and a calmer week, not a dashboard chart.

FAQ
What's the realistic timeline for AI translation with an accounting firm?
Most accounting firms have their first usable slice in week 5 or 6. We'd rather ship narrow and real than broad and aspirational - your team gets to use the thing well before the engagement is "done".
Is AI translation worth it for a smaller accounting firm?
Often, yes - and counterintuitively the ROI is sometimes faster than for the big end of town because there's less integration overhead. We'll tell you honestly on the scoping call if it isn't.
What's the realistic outcome for accounting firms?
Expanded customer reach by 22% with multilingual support live. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
What happens if we want to swap a vendor out later?
AI translation is built behind a small adapter layer specifically so swapping a model provider or a data source is a one-day job, not a re-architecture. Claude, DeepL, ElevenLabs, Vercel are our defaults, but the build is intentionally portable.
