AI and machine learning in Whangārei.
Most teams do not need a bigger model, they need one wired into the system where the work already happens.
Whangārei moves timber out and fuel in through Marsden Point. We automate the dispatch records, contractor paperwork and invoicing for the firms that keep it running.
Already buried in admin? We'll sort the first workflow for 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.
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.
Whangārei, up close.
Northport at Marsden Point is New Zealand's northernmost deep-water port and mostly exports logs, woodchip and timber, while Channel Infrastructure's Marsden Point terminal imports fuel for Auckland and Northland.
Auckland and Northland make up about 40 per cent of New Zealand's fuel demand, supplied through the Marsden Point terminal.
An AI agency, minus the theatre.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
What AI and machine learning means here
The core of what we build. Models that read your documents, answer in your own language and take the repetitive work off your team, running against your systems rather than a demo dataset.
- Agents that work inside your existing tools, not beside them
- Retrieval over your own documents, with the source cited on every answer
- Fine tuning and evaluation against tasks your team actually does
- Human review on anything that leaves the building
Good questions, answered
Do you actually work on AI and machine learning?
The core of what we build. Models that read your documents, answer in your own language and take the repetitive work off your team, running against your systems rather than a demo dataset.
What does this look like for a Whangārei business?
Northland is geographically wide and connectivity-thin - AI here means tools that work in a ute with patchy signal. We scope one workflow, ship it to production, and prove the return before expanding.
Where do you start?
With the workflow costing the most time or the most leads. Most teams do not need a bigger model, they need one wired into the system where the work already happens.
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.
Can it keep track of ACC levies?
Yes. ACC work levies are set by the classification unit your work falls under, and self-employed people are invoiced after filing their tax return.
