Zero-Cost Intelligence · Auckland

Local AI for NZ business.
On your hardware.
Tailored to how you work.

Liveclaw deploys private AI that runs on your own hardware — models, memory and automation configured to your business, not rented per query from someone else's cloud. Once it's running, using it costs you nothing. That's zero-cost intelligence. Staged delivery, a fixed price per stage before we start, monitored after launch.

Client work

Delivered and managed for NZ clients

Every engagement starts where the client needs it most. For Parked Up that was a website and booking automation — the next phase is their marketing engine, powered by our first content engine. All sites below are live in production.

AI applied: enquiries route straight into the venue's management dashboard, monitored weekly so none are silently lost. 11 enquiries in the first 6 days live. Next phase: their marketing engine.

What we deploy

AI that lives in your business, not in someone else's cloud

Every deployment runs the stack we operate in production ourselves — Ollama, Open WebUI and Qdrant — sized to your hardware and configured to the way your operation actually runs.

01
Local AI deployment
Private models running on your own hardware, with a chat interface your whole team uses on your network. Your documents, prices, processes and history loaded into private memory — an assistant that actually knows your business, with nothing leaving the building and nothing billed per query.
Any NZ business ready to stop renting AI
02
Business automation & agents
Workflows tailored to your operation, running on that same local stack: enquiry handling and routing, research briefs waiting for you in the morning, reporting, reconciliation — autonomous, monitored, 24/7.

03
Marketing & content engines
An AI content engine trained on your voice and your business, generating and scheduling the marketing you never have time for — socials, campaigns, updates — from your own data. In build now for our first venue client.

04
Websites & booking automation
Often the first stage of an engagement: a site that wins enquiries, forms feeding straight into the systems you already use, dual-path delivery so nothing gets lost, and weekly monitoring so we notice problems before you do.

How it works

Staged. Priced up front. Monitored after.

01
We talk about your actual problems
Not your IT stack. Where are you losing time? Which enquiries never come back? What information is stuck in the wrong place? That's what we scope and build for — and we'll tell you straight if AI isn't the answer.
02
We deploy in stages, priced before each one starts
Every stage is a fixed quote you approve before work begins — whether that's local AI on your hardware, an automation, or the website that feeds it. Stage one is usually small and fast: a working improvement inside a week. Nothing goes live without your sign-off.
03
We keep watching after launch
Launch isn't the finish line. We reconcile your enquiry counts weekly and get alerted the moment something doesn't add up — which is how a delivery fault on a client's booking integration was caught and fixed within days, before a single enquiry was lost to the business.
Why work with us

The case for doing it this way

Your data stays yours
Your AI runs on your own hardware, in your building. Your strategy, clients, pricing and IP never leave the room, are never logged by a cloud provider, and never train someone else's model.
Zero-cost intelligence
Cloud AI charges you every time you think. Local AI has one deployment cost, then using it is free — ask it a thousand questions a day and the power bill barely notices. Fixed stage prices, agreed before we start.
Tailored, not generic
Not a chatbot with your logo on it. Models sized to your hardware, memory loaded with your documents and processes, automations built around the way your operation actually runs.
It runs itself — and we watch it
These aren't tools you have to remember to open. Systems run on schedule, deliver results, and alert us when something needs attention. The return is time.
The operators

Built by people running it live today

The infrastructure behind LIVECLAW is handling real projects right now — client websites, booking automation, music intelligence, venue operations. This is not a proof of concept.

We keep the client list short

Every engagement gets the same monitoring and attention as the work above. If your business is ready for AI that runs on your own hardware and actually knows your operation, the right next step is a direct conversation.
