The version of semantic search (RAG) that works for a Bunbury business is rarely the version a national vendor would sell you. We build the one that fits how your team actually operates - usually with fewer parts than the off-the-shelf pitch.
Built and supported here - the way a Bunbury business would actually use it.
What semantic search (RAG) actually does
Search that understands intent, not just keywords. Your team types what they mean - and gets the right document, ticket, or product from across every system, with citations.
- 01 Indexes Drive, SharePoint, Notion, Slack, your CRM
- 02 Returns answers with source links - no hallucinations
- 03 Permissioned so staff only see what they should
- 04 Re-indexes nightly so results stay fresh
Built on: Pinecone Claude Postgres pgvector Vercel AI SDK

The Bunbury context, plainly.
- Bunbury is WA's second city - a working port with alumina, mineral sands and agriculture behind it.
- Port operations, alumina refining, mineral sands, dairy and a growing services sector. Industrial clients bring prequalification paperwork, and most local suppliers handle it manually.

How we build semantic search (RAG) for a Bunbury team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Bunbury business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI search over your data.

FAQ
What's a typical engagement length for Bunbury businesses?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?
Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call - fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.
Has this actually shipped for a real Bunbury?
Yes. Average search time drops from 6 minutes to 12 seconds. We'll share comparable engagements on the call.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default semantic search (RAG) stack we reach for is Pinecone, Claude, Postgres pgvector, Vercel AI SDK, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run - Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.
