Hearth & Bloom
Cinematic coffee storytelling with layered motion, reusable product cards, and web-optimized drink reels.
Websites that bring in work, apps that run it, and AI that takes the busywork off your team.
Models and platforms we build with
Most businesses end up juggling a web designer, an app developer and an “AI person”. We do all three, so the pieces actually talk to each other.
Digital staff that work inside your tools. An agent can answer customer questions from your own information, sort the inbox, qualify leads and hand anything tricky to a person.
The copy-paste jobs between your email, spreadsheets, accounts and CRM, done automatically and checked where it matters.
Fast, modern websites built with AI-assisted workflows, set up to be found on Google and understood by ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity.
Client portals, dashboards, booking systems and internal tools shaped around how your business actually runs, instead of bending your process to fit an off-the-shelf app.
Add AI to the systems you already use: search your documents, summarise jobs, draft quotes and classify requests, with clear rules about what data goes where.
Shopify and WooCommerce stores for New Zealand retailers, with AI help for product descriptions, collections and the admin work behind the checkout.
AI is most useful on the repetitive work nobody enjoys. These are examples of what we build, and several already run inside our own business every day.
Every email lands in one pile
Mail is labelled, routed and drafted for reply before anyone opens the inbox.
Enquiries wait until morning
A website assistant answers from your own service info at 11pm and books a callback.
Quotes take an evening each
Job notes become a draft quote in your template, ready for you to check and send.
Social media keeps slipping
One article or product becomes a week of posts, queued for your approval.
Leads go cold in a spreadsheet
New leads are scored, followed up and put in front of the right person.
New stock takes days to list
Product photos and specs become listings, descriptions and SEO fields.
A person stays in charge. Anything that sends, pays or publishes waits for your approval until you decide otherwise.
Start small with a website or go straight to a custom system. We confirm the scope and timeline with you before work begins.
One-page to multi-page responsive sites with hero, offer section, contact form, and SEO.
24/7 AI chat trained on your services, automated lead sequences, and Xero sync.
Shopify stores, client portals, and custom web applications with full code ownership.
Explore concept websites for cafes, salons, trades and other small businesses. These are design demonstrations, not client case studies. Booking, checkout and form features in a demo may be illustrative.
The same four stages whether it is a website, an app or an AI agent.
We look at where your time and money go, and pick the work that is worth building or automating first.
You see an early working version, click through it and tell us what is wrong before the full build.
Production code on modern platforms, tested on real devices and wired into the tools you already use.
We launch, watch how it is used and keep improving it. Care plans keep it updated and secure.
If a spreadsheet or a simple form solves it, we will say so. AI goes where it saves real time.
Accounts, domains and data stay in your business's name, and there are no lock-in contracts.
No jargon and no black boxes. You will know what the system does, what it costs to run and who to call.
We are based in Palmerston North and work with businesses across New Zealand, on video calls or in person when it helps.

Compare packages and pricingIt is a modern website built with AI-assisted design and development, and set up so search engines and AI assistants like ChatGPT can understand and recommend your business. It can also include AI features, such as an assistant that answers customer questions.
Common starting points are answering enquiries, sorting and drafting email replies, following up leads, drafting quotes and writing product or social content. We begin with one job, check it saves time, then expand.
We agree up front what data a system can see and which AI provider processes it, and we avoid sending anything it does not need. Sensitive actions keep a human approval step.
No. Tell us how the work happens today. We handle the technical side and show you how to use and adjust what we build.
Yes. Websites, redesigns and Shopify and WooCommerce stores are a big part of what we do, and they are often where an AI project starts.
No. We are based in Palmerston North and work with businesses across New Zealand, and we welcome international enquiries for remote work.
