Start with an intro call.
A free 30-minute call about how your week runs. No prep needed. You leave knowing whether there's something worth building.
A call, a review, or a full build. Never anything you don't need.
Based in Christchurch and on site anywhere in Canterbury. More on working with me locally.
A 30-minute call about how your week runs. No prep needed, in person if you're in Canterbury, video otherwise. We work out whether there's something here worth building.
Most people don't know whether their problem is worth automating until they've talked it through. This call settles that, at no cost, before you spend anything on the next step.
A written plan for the one process worth automating first. I sit with your team, in person in Canterbury or over video elsewhere, map how the work actually happens, and set out what to build, what it saves, and what it costs.
Most businesses don't know which automation to build first. This makes that decision easy, and gives you something useful even if you never work with me again.
Want a rough number before you pay for one? The ROI calculator works out the payback on a build from the hours you'd stop doing by hand.
Book an intro call →Fixed scope, working software in production in 4–8 weeks. I build to an agreed plan, deploy it, and train your team until they're using it.
Already running something I've built? Ongoing support and new automations are available monthly, with same-day response included. No fixed weekly day count, just help as the business needs it. Get in touch →
Pick a slot on the calendar. Thirty minutes, free, and nothing to install or fill in beforehand.
I read whatever you put in the form. If you sent nothing, that is fine, we start from how your week runs instead.
You describe how the work runs now and where it breaks. If automating it is not worth the money, I will say so on the call rather than send a proposal.
If a build makes sense, the next step is a Workflow Review: a written plan you own whether or not I build it. If it does not, you have spent half an hour and nothing else.
Not every job needs a six-week build. These are the systems I set up most often, sized to the problem in front of you.
Answers the common questions, captures the job details, and knows when to hand off to a real person. Trained on your services and your pricing rules.
Invoices, forms and RFQs read automatically and entered into your systems. No more retyping PDFs into Xero.
Reads what comes in, sorts it, drafts the replies, routes the rest. Quote requests stop sitting unread for three days.
Site meetings and client calls transcribed and summarised with action points, then filed where your team will find them.
One screen pulling from Xero, your job system and your spreadsheets. The Monday-morning numbers, already there when you sit down.
New enquiries scored against your ideal job profile and followed up within minutes, not days.
Power Apps, automated flows and Copilot Studio agents built on the licence you already pay for. SharePoint as the backbone, no new software to buy. More on this →
A structured look at where AI fits your business, and where it doesn't. You get a report, not a sales pitch.
Usually 2–4 weeks from Workflow Review to first build day.
In Canterbury, yes, happy to spend a day with your team. Elsewhere, video and async.
First milestone is 50% on signing, 50% on acceptance. If you don't accept, you don't pay the second half.
See the work. Every tool there is one I built and run in my own business, which is proof of how I build. Client builds get the same standard, with proper scoping.
Rarely. Ongoing support works when there's already infrastructure to maintain.
No. You describe the problem in plain language. I handle everything technical and hand it back running.
I can build entirely local, air-gapped systems where nothing leaves your machine. No cloud APIs, no third-party data handling. Common requirement for healthcare and legal clients.
Straightforward single automations typically land between $4,000 and $8,000 + GST. Bigger builds like a custom CRM or job-tracking system run $10,000–$22,000. Moving a SQL Server or Access system into Microsoft 365 (SharePoint or Dataverse) is a fixed $8,000 to $18,000 + GST for a firm under 20 staff, migration included. The Workflow Review is $3,500 + GST and gets you an exact number before you commit to a build.
Four to eight weeks to working software, and smaller ones land at the short end. I'll give you a realistic timeline after scoping.
You get the source code, documentation, and a 60-day warranty: anything that breaks in the first 60 days, I fix at no charge. After that, retainer or ad hoc, your call.
