Responsible innovation in Wellington.
A system nobody can explain is a system nobody can defend when it gets something wrong.
What Wellington runs on.
Wellington is home to New Zealand's public sector, which makes up 17 per cent of the city's workforce, alongside tech and fintech, gaming, screen, and food and beverage.
Wellington is a UNESCO City of Film, known for its post-production work. Wellington Anniversary Day falls on on or near 22 January.
Wellington runs on government, tech and screen, and most of that work runs on documents. We build AI that reads, drafts and files them, on New Zealand infrastructure.
Not your typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
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.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
What responsible innovation means here
Shipping AI you can explain, audit and switch off. Evaluation before deployment, a human in the loop on anything sensitive, and an honest account of what the system cannot do.
- Evaluate against your tasks before it goes anywhere near a customer
- A human decides anything that carries consequence
- Full audit trail of what the system did and why
- Say plainly where the model is unreliable rather than hiding it
How it works in Wellington
We find the one workflow costing Wellington businesses the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
Straight answers
Where do you start?
With the workflow costing the most time or the most leads. A system nobody can explain is a system nobody can defend when it gets something wrong.
Is this a talk or a build?
Both, depending on what you need. We speak on responsible innovation, 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.
What does this look like for a Wellington business?
Wellington runs on policy, tech, and tight talent pools. AI here is about scaling expertise - not replacing it. We scope one workflow, ship it to production, and prove the return before expanding.
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.
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.
