QVT Technology is a Christchurch-based AI automation company that builds custom workflow systems for New Zealand small businesses. We identify your highest-friction pain point — the thing costing you the most time every week — build an automation that solves it completely, and hand it over to you with a guided handoff. You own the system outright. We work with trades, health professionals, mortgage brokers, accountants, and service businesses across NZ.

Sound Familiar?

"You're spending more time on admin than on the work that actually makes you money."

"A good lead came in on Friday. You replied Monday. They'd already gone elsewhere."

"You've looked at the software options. They're either too complex, too expensive, or another subscription you'll barely use."

"You know automation could help. You just don't know where to start — or who to trust with it."

How the Guided Handoff Works

1

We find your biggest time drain together

2

We build the automation — custom, not templated

3

We test it until it works exactly right

4

We walk you through everything in a guided handoff

5

You own it outright — we're available if you need us

Built on n8n and Claude AI. Every system is custom-built for your business, tested until it works, and handed over with a guided walkthrough. Then it's yours — the accounts, the workflows, the data. All of it.

What You Get — and What You Keep

Built for your exact problem

We don't sell a product and fit your business around it. We start with your actual workflow and build something that fits.

Let's build this Built for Your Exact Problem

One friction point. Solved completely.

We don't try to automate everything at once. We find the single thing costing you the most time and solve it properly — then hand it over.

Let's build this One Friction Point. Solved Completely.

Guided handoff — not a dump and run

When the build is done, we walk you through how it works, answer every question, and make sure you're confident before we step back.

Let's build this Guided Handoff

You own everything. Full stop.

The workflow, the accounts, the API keys, the data. Nothing lives on our servers. You could fire us tomorrow and it would keep running.

Let's build this You Own Everything

No subscriptions to us — ever

You pay for the build once. The only ongoing costs are the tools you own directly — typically $40–70/month total, paid straight to the providers.

Let's build this No Subscriptions Ever

Ready to grow when you are

Let's build this Ready to Grow

One Build. Yours Forever.

Your Questions, Our Straight Answers

Do I need to be technical to use this?

+
Not at all. We handle the entire build and walk you through how it works at handoff. You don't need to understand n8n or AI — you just need to know what problem you want solved.

How is this different from just buying software?

+
Off-the-shelf software is built for the average business. We build for yours specifically — your workflow, your voice, your data. And unlike SaaS, you own it outright when we're done. No ongoing subscription to us, ever.

What if I want to change something after handoff?

+
The system is yours and you can adjust it however you like. If you want our help making changes, we're available — but you're never locked into a support contract. Most clients find they don't need us after the handoff.

How long does a build take?

+
Most builds are live within 5 business days from the discovery session. Simpler automations can be done in 2–3 days. We won't start the build until we've agreed on exactly what we're solving and what done looks like.

Can I start with one automation and add more later?

+
That's exactly how most clients work with us. Email automation is the most common starting point. Once that's running and you've seen what's possible, most clients come back within 3–6 months to tackle the next thing. There's no pressure and no package to commit to.
