Semantic search (RAG) for dog groomers.
AI search over your data, built around how a dog groomer actually works.
What years of building for dog groomers taught us.
Groomers run tight appointment slots where a single no-show leaves an expensive gap in the day.
Booking confirmations and reminder texts are the simplest lever for cutting no-shows in a grooming business.
Appointments, reminders and pet notes handled automatically, so nobody has to put the clippers down for the phone.

Ask questions across your manuals, contracts and records and get answers with the source attached, not a guess.

- Data that stays in New Zealand
From one-person trades to national organisations, we find the hours :)
The questions a public sector buyer asks, answered up front: privacy impact, the NZISM, where the data lives and how an algorithm is held to account.

What changes for dog groomers after this lands: the work that used to need a person stays done, the work that needs a person gets done with their attention undivided. Average search time drops from 6 minutes to 12 seconds. Kiwi Dynamics
How Kiwi Dynamics works
We find the one workflow costing dog groomers the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
Questions dog groomers ask
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default semantic search (RAG) stack we reach for is Pinecone, Claude, Postgres pgvector, Vercel AI SDK, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run - Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.
What's a typical engagement length for dog groomers?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
Does scheduling handle public holidays?
It should. New Zealand has 11 national public holidays, including Matariki, plus a regional anniversary day that depends on where your business is.
What happens when the Holidays Act is replaced?
The Employment Leave Act 2026 replaces it on 6 August 2028. Until then payroll follows the current Holidays Act, so leave calculations need to handle today's rules and the changeover.
