Why us in New Zealand

Local where it counts.

Presence

Trans-Tasman, remote-first

We are headquartered in Sydney and work trans-Tasman with New Zealand teams, remote-first in NZ time, with on-site visits for kickoff and key milestones when needed.

Remote-firstOn site when needed
Timezone

Two hours from Sydney

New Zealand runs two hours ahead of our Sydney base, so our working days overlap almost completely. A flight across the Tasman is a morning, not a week.

Compliance

Built for New Zealand rules

We design for the NZ Privacy Act 2020, and for the Algorithm Charter and NZISM in public sector work.

Questions

What New Zealand teams ask.

Straight answers to what New Zealand teams ask before they book.

Are you based in New Zealand?

We are headquartered in Sydney and work trans-Tasman, remote-first in NZ time, with on-site visits for kickoff and key milestones.

Do you price in NZD?

Yes. We contract and invoice in NZD, and every engagement opens with a fixed-fee diagnostic.

Do you design for the NZ Privacy Act 2020?

Yes, and for the Algorithm Charter and NZISM where public sector work is involved.

How fast can you start?

A two-week diagnostic can start the Monday after the scoping call. Larger engagements usually begin one to two weeks out.

We are model-agnostic: Claude, GPT and open-weight models, routed on cost and capability, including self-hosted models for sovereign work.
