The Problem

88% of enterprise AI pilots never reach production.

All consulting, no shipping

Firms tried AI and failed. They’re tired of slide decks and want a product that actually works.

Flashy pilots to gritty reality

Scaling means moving from isolated pilots to robust architecture, real data quality, and legacy integration.

Tools that don’t know NZ

ChatGPT doesn’t know how NZ professionals and business owners think. Generic AI fails on specifics.

What we do

We build the AI agents. You use them to stay ahead.

NZ-specific from the ground up

Architected around NZ-specific frameworks and your domain knowledge. In the architecture, not a post-build config. Not adapted from a US model.

Production-ready delivery

We don’t deliver proofs of concept and leave. Every engagement is scoped to run in real business operations.

Strong harness engineering

Orchestration, QA, guardrails, monitoring, human-review, error handling. Most NZ AI projects skip the harness. We build the whole thing.

How it works

Four steps. Problem to production.

Step 01

Discovery call

30 minutes. We map your workflow and the pain point. No slide deck.

Step 02

Scope or POC

A fixed-price proposal, or a $3K proof of concept we can evaluate together.

Step 03

Build

We engineer the system or take the POC into production. 8–12 weeks depending on complexity.

Step 04

Handover

Production system. All yours. Or we run it as a containerised service on your behalf.

What we build

Three categories of AI agent system.

Service 01

Automated Document Production

Structured inputs in. NZ-compliant reports out. Your expert reviews and signs off.

Built for
  • Integrated Transport Assessments
  • Business cases
  • Tender documents
  • Resource consent submissions
  • Environmental assessments
  • NZIV-compliant valuations
Service 02

Professional Service Agents

An agent trained on your company's specific context and domain knowledge. Not just chat — it carries out tasks.

Built for
  • Healthcare
  • Sales with deep product knowledge
  • Financial services
  • Quantity Surveyor estimation
  • Accounting
  • Legal
Service 03

Personal Assistant Agents

Off-the-shelf PA agents carry security risks or take forever to train. Customise your own, on your terms.

Built for
  • Anyone who uses a VA
Our approach

Harness engineering — not off-the-shelf.

The LLM is the brain. Without arms and legs it does nothing. We engineer the arms and legs — harness-grade — around state-of-the-art intelligence.

  • Workflow first. Code second.

  • Structured NZ knowledge layer.

  • QA by design. Uncertainty surfaces.

  • Integrates with your existing tools.

  • Open architecture. No black boxes. No lock-in.

Built for

NZ professional services firms.

Questions

Fair questions. Direct answers.

Generic AI tools don't understand NZ regulatory frameworks. They don't know what an ITA requires under the Auckland Transport guidelines, or how a resource consent submission needs to be structured under your district plan. We build specifically for your document types and compliance requirements. The domain-specific engineering is the entire point.

Our project pricing starts at $8K. The average professional service bills at $100–250/hr. Taking automated document production as an example, if a standard report takes 40–60 hours, automating it recovers $6,000–$15,000 in billable time — per report. The question isn't whether the economics work. It's whether your volume is high enough to make a dedicated system worthwhile. That's what the discovery call establishes.

You can. Here's what that realistically involves: 4–6 weeks building the NZ regulatory knowledge layer (district plan variability, RMA section mapping, AT ITA guideline compliance) before you've written a line of workflow logic. Then the orchestration layer. Then QA and error handling. Then integration with your existing tools. Then maintenance every time something updates. A senior AI engineer in NZ costs $120–180K/yr. A fixed-price Lumora AI project costs $8–30K, delivered in 8–12 weeks, and you own everything. The maths usually favour hiring us.

Your data stays in NZ-hosted infrastructure. We sign NDAs before any engagement begins and work within your firm's security and confidentiality requirements. Professional services confidentiality is non-negotiable — we build for it from day one.
