We've built this in the real world

We've built and deployed a GenAI system using GPT-4.1 and RAG architecture into a health research system — a real production deployment serving real users, not a trial. That experience is what we bring to smaller projects.

Why Arohiko
Research-backed, practically delivered

Active PhD research in Agentic AI at the University of Auckland — combined with hands-on deployment experience across real organisations. Not theory. Not demos.

Local, accountable, and in the room

Auckland-based. You can meet us at your office. We understand NZ business context, compliance, and culture — including Te Tiriti obligations for organisations working with Māori communities.

An affordable, low-risk starting point

Start with a $500 assessment before committing to anything larger. We'll tell you honestly whether AI is the right move for your business right now.

Who we work with

A good fit if

  • You have between 3 and 50 people
  • You already pay for tools like Copilot or ChatGPT and nobody's really using them
  • Your team repeats the same manual task every week
  • You want to start small and see something working before committing further

Probably not yet if

  • You're after a customer-facing product or app build
  • Your processes change week to week and nothing is written down
  • You need your data or core systems sorted out first
  • You want AI because it's AI, rather than to solve a specific problem

Not sure which side you're on? That's exactly what the first conversation is for.

The first conversation
1
You talk, we listen

What takes too long, what keeps getting repeated, where things get stuck.

2
We tell you straight

Where AI would genuinely help, and where it wouldn't. Sometimes the answer is a better process, not a new tool.

3
You leave with something useful

Two or three things you could act on yourself, whether or not you work with us.

No slides, no pitch, no obligation. If we're not the right fit, we'll say so and point you somewhere better.
