Data-driven decision making in Gisborne.

A dashboard is where a decision goes to wait. The useful version reaches the person while they can still act.

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.

Cyclone Gabrielle hit about half of Tairāwhiti's horticulture land. As businesses rebuild, we automate the quoting, reporting and scheduling that eats the week.

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.

What data-driven decision making means here

Most businesses do not have a data problem, they have an action problem: the number exists, nobody sees it in time, and nothing happens. We close the gap between the number and the decision.

  • One number per decision, in front of the person who makes it
  • Alerts on the change, not a dashboard nobody opens
  • Ask the database in plain English and get a sourced answer
  • Decisions logged, so you can tell later whether the call was right
