Services

A practical path from diagnosis to a working pilot

The strongest first project is usually a bounded workflow with a clear operational outcome, not a broad transformation brief.

From NZD 2,500

AI Opportunity Sprint

A structured diagnostic to find the highest-value workflow improvements before you commit to a build.

Usually 1 to 2 weeks

Small firms that know there is friction but want a clear recommendation, rough ROI, and a low-risk first step.

  • Discovery session with Shan
  • Workflow mapping and bottleneck review
  • Priority opportunities ranked by effort and payoff
  • Data and privacy considerations
  • 90-day action plan with recommended next pilot

Workflow Pilot Build

A fixed-scope build that removes one painful manual process and proves value quickly.

Usually 3 to 6 weeks

Teams ready to fix a specific workflow such as document chasing, reporting prep, quoting admin, or internal approvals.

  • Discovery and scope confirmation
  • One production-ready workflow or internal tool
  • Integration with the systems already in use
  • Testing, documentation, and staff walkthrough
  • 30 days of post-launch support

Operations Copilot Platform

A broader internal platform connecting multiple workflows, dashboards, and AI-assisted operations support.

Usually 6 to 12 weeks

Growing firms that have already proven one workflow and now need a more durable operations layer.

  • Multi-workflow process design
  • Custom internal tools and role-based access
  • Reporting views and operational dashboards
  • Governance, rollout, and enablement support
  • 60 days of optimisation after launch

Approach

Understand the workflow first, then decide where AI actually helps

That means understanding the process, the systems involved, and where human review should still sit before anything is deployed.

01

20-minute intro

We start with a short conversation about the workflow, the systems involved, and what would make the project worth doing.

02

Discovery and recommendation

I review the process, identify the real bottlenecks, and recommend the smallest useful scope that will prove value.

03

Fixed-scope build

Once scope is agreed, I build the workflow, document it clearly, and keep communication direct and practical.

04

Support and next steps

After launch, I stay close enough to fix issues, refine the workflow, and advise on the next improvement when needed.

Trust

Useful AI work still needs proper access, privacy, and review boundaries

That matters for internal operations, financial workflows, and any process where the cost of a sloppy implementation is higher than the cost of waiting.

  • Client-approved tools only. No surprise software in the stack.
  • Access is kept to the minimum needed to complete the work.
  • Client data is not used for model training unless explicitly agreed in writing.
  • Every build includes a clear handover, support expectations, and named accountability.

Need an AI consultant in Invercargill who will also build the work?

Start with the workflow problem and the systems involved. That is enough for a first conversation.
