Natural language and speech recognition in Blenheim.
Speech recognition trained on American English mangles New Zealand place names, which is exactly the field a booking depends on.
Business in Blenheim.
Marlborough is New Zealand's largest wine region, with almost 31,000 hectares of vines, around two thirds of the national total.
Marlborough put New Zealand on the international wine stage with its Sauvignon Blanc in the 1980s. Grape harvest runs to mid-April and peaks in March, with seasonal wine work from late January to May.
When harvest peaks in March, rosters, contractor invoices and compliance records all land at once. We automate that paperwork so vintage gets your full attention.
Small crew or big organisation, the busywork is the same :)

Is this a talk or a build?
Both, depending on what you need. We speak on natural language and speech recognition, and we build the systems behind it. The advice is the same either way, and it is free of charge until there is a scope to quote.
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.
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.
