What's different about doing this work in Armidale.
- Armidale is a university town on the New England tablelands, so its business base swings hard with the academic calendar.
- The University of New England, agriculture, health and education dominate. A large share of local demand arrives and disappears with semester dates, which makes fixed staffing expensive and automation genuinely useful.

FAQ
How long does AI HR assistant take to ship for Armidale businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks - narrow scope, real Armidale businesses data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
How do you price AI HR assistant engagements?
Fixed-scope pilots first, then either project pricing or a small monthly retainer for the ongoing work. No long lock-ins, no 18-month black-box deals. Most Armidale businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
What's the realistic outcome for Armidale businesses?
HR enquiries drop 65% in the first month - leaders get their week back. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI HR assistant into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude sits in your account too - we don't operate it from ours.
