About Us
Welcome to Kōwhai, your partnership in the age of intelligence: Bridging minds, empowering futures
At Kōwhai, we draw inspiration from the natural world, where trees communicate through an intricate underground network of connections that resembles the neural networks in the brain.
Our mission is to bridge the world of artificial intelligence with these natural principles, harnessing the power of AI in its ability to connect, learn and adapt – ultimately helping New Zealand businesses discover the possibilities of AI and importantly thrive!
Our journey is rooted in the pursuit of a singular vision: to augment human intelligence and propel businesses where the potential knows no bounds. Evolving technology to not just support human intellect, but to amplify it.
Kōwhai's name pays homage to the resilient Kōwhai tree, which flourishes in the diverse landscapes of New Zealand. Similarly, we thrive in the ever-changing landscape of technology, always branching out to new horizons.

Our Values
We take Ownership
Taking ownership is about driving execution and not assuming that it will get done by someone else.
We don’t wait for others to deliver it. We take initiative, even with imperfect information and do our best to execute to the highest possible level.
Operate with sense of Urgency
The only guarantee at any time, or anywhere in business, is change. To have a sense of urgency is to act promptly and with intention and purpose to make things happen. A sense of urgency means we are proactive, constantly looking at the present, deciding what actions to take today to ensure the future that we envisage.
Communication at our heart
Operate with honesty, transparency, and open communication – authentic and straight-up. Through collaboration and bringing the teamwork mentality to our everyday language we see the value shift from the individual hero to the team as a whole.
