Android app development for builders.
The version of android app development that building companies still use a year after launch.
Records of Building Work, photos and variations organised as the job runs, ready for the code compliance certificate.
Knows the New Zealand rules.
Apps for crews on the move that keep working when coverage drops out and sync when the signal comes back.
- Restricted work needs an LBP
- Consent first, sign-off after
- The Master Build 10-Year Guarantee
What years of building for building companies taught us.
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.
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.
An AI agency, minus the theatre.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
Less admin.
More weekend.
No theatre.
What android app development covers
The shape of the result for building companies: Built and tested against real mid-range devices, not just the newest phone in the office.
- Runs on the mid-range handsets your team really uses, not just flagships
- Google Play submission, staged rollout and release management handled
- Offline first, so a dead zone does not lose a job
- Play Store listing and screenshots done, not left half finished
- No AI theatre
- No annual contracts
On the tools or running at scale, the admin still eats the week :)
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.
Straight answers
Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?
Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call - fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.
Do you have proof this works for building companies?
Direct case study: Built and tested against real mid-range devices, not just the newest phone in the office. Happy to walk you through full numbers on a call.
When does android app development 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 building company - so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.
Can AI help with payday filing?
It can prepare it. Employers file employment information every payday, within 2 working days when filing electronically, and automation can have it ready for a person to check.
Can it remind us about the annual return?
Yes. Every company must file an annual return with the Companies Office each year, separate from its tax return.
