When historians ask us what AI actually changes, the first question we put back is the same one every time: which part of your week, if it disappeared, would change how you feel on a Friday? We start from that answer.
AI by role · New Zealand & Australia
AI that gives historians their time back, not another dashboard.
By the numbers
0.43% of all Claude.ai conversations map to this kind of work (Anthropic Economic Index, March 2026). For context, Australia's overall AI usage sits at 4.11× its expected level and Canada at 4.37× (with Singapore leading at 5.53×) — adoption is already well ahead of the curve, so the edge goes to whoever turns it into a concrete workflow first.
Historians sits within Science & Research, one of the sectors we build production AI for.

How we build AI for historians.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your team, so value lands before the build is finished. The durable wins augment a person rather than replace them — a human approves anything that matters.

Questions
FAQ
When does AI actually pay back?
Inside the first quarter, in our experience. We pick the first slice specifically because it's the highest-leverage workflow for a historians team – so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.
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.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes – on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. 0.43% of all Claude.ai conversations map to this kind of work (Anthropic Economic Index, March 2026)
Will this run on our own infrastructure?
Yes, where it makes sense. AI can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Summarise literature with citations, Clean and explore datasets, Draft methods and reports, Answer questions over your documents but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
