New Zealand · Construction & engineering
Your crew is already using AI. Nobody is running it.
87% of New Zealand organisations use AI. 12% have actually scaled it. In building and engineering that gap is not a technology problem — it is a governance, record-keeping and ROI problem. We close it, one industry at a time.
Where the time actually goes
- 1 Rewriting the same client email for the tenth time this week
- 2 Re-typing a scope of works from a drawing set by hand
- 3 Chasing variation discussion that only exists in a recording
- 4 Building a tender pack the night before it is due
- 5 Finding out somebody pasted a client price into a free tool
The gap
Adoption is not the problem. Landing it is.
Every one of these numbers is published, and every one of them comes from a New Zealand source. We are not inventing a trend — we are reading the same reports your bank and your insurer have already read.
87% → 12%use AI vs scale it (embedAI, 2026)
Five sixths of firms stop at the experiment. The value is in the other 12% — the ones where AI sits inside a process with an owner.

What we build
Three layers. One vertical to start.
Tool layer
AI readiness score → dated report
Twelve questions covering what may go into a tool, where the data sits, who owns the accounts and whether anyone measures the return. You get a scored report with a reference number, not a certificate.
Document layer
Industry AI policy + PP12 path
One page people sign, plus the decision path for Privacy Act 2020 Principle 12: can this document leave the building, which country does it land in, do you need a DPA.
Content layer
Tool ledger with real NZD costs
15 tools priced in New Zealand dollars, with the data region and the PP12 risk of each one — updated, dated and versioned in public.
The record
Numbers we can show you the source of.

The score takes about twelve minutes. You will leave with a band, five dimension scores, the three things to fix first, and a dated report you can keep.
Free, no email required to see your score. If you want the stored copy and the PDF, that is where the email comes in — under our privacy policy, not a training set.
