How we’re different
Enterprise expertise, SME pricing.
Methodology refined at global consulting organisations, delivered at a fraction of the cost. No minimum $100K engagements or 6-month discovery phases.
We implement, not just advise.
Hands-on setup, configuration, and training. Working systems. Not 80-page strategy documents gathering dust.
Speed to value
Measurable results in a few weeks. We’ll prove ROI before committing further. Your time and budget are respected.

Avish Kapadia, Principal Consultant
After a decade delivering technology transformation for some of the largest organisations in Australia and New Zealand; IBM, EY, Fonterra, MinterEllison, Te Whatu Ora, and KiwiRail. Avish saw a consistent pattern: the tools and strategies that transformed enterprises were never reaching the businesses that needed them most.
Small and medium businesses. Here. In New Zealand.
68% of NZ SMEs have no plans to adopt AI. Not because they don’t want to, but because nobody has shown them how. (New Zealand's Strategy for Artificial Intelligence: Investing with Confidence, MBIE 2025)
Lovain was founded to close that gap. Enterprise-grade AI consulting and execution for SME businesses, at a price point that delivers return on investment from week one. We collaborate with delivery partners as required, so you can focus on running your business.
What We Deliver.
AI tools for your business. AI Insights. Competitive Edge. Lower Costs.
We don't sell bloated tools or software. We don't resell chatbots. We build rapid, bespoke AI solutions that fit the way your business actually operates - your spreadsheets, your workflows, your team.
Deployed in weeks, specific to your business.
The Lovain Difference.
Why not just buy software? Because your business isn't generic. Your tools shouldn't be either.
Large SaaS platforms promise AI in a box. What they deliver is a one-size-fits-all product with features you'll never use, pricing that scales whether you do or not, and months of configuration before you see a single result.
We take a different approach. We look at what your team does every day - the spreadsheets, the manual processes, the bottlenecks, and build targeted solutions that eliminate them. No bloated dashboards. No enterprise-based licensing. No six-month onboarding.
Our Offerings
Agentic AI Solutions
Intelligent agents that work for you. We build AI agents that don't just answer questions - they take action.
These aren't chatbots reading from a script. They're autonomous systems that can process incoming data, make decisions based on your business rules, and execute tasks without waiting for someone to click a button.
Workflow Automation & Custom Tools
Your processes, supercharged. Every business has workflows that eat hours - data entry, report generation, quote building, invoice chasing.
We take those exact processes and build lightweight, customised tools that automate them.
A perfect way to streamline costs and increase the bottom line.
AI-Powered Insights & Reporting
Your data, actually working for you. Not you working and pasting into an online AI tool for insights.
Most NZ businesses sit on valuable data they never use. Sales figures in spreadsheets. Customer feedback in inboxes.
Operational patterns in job logs. We build tools that consume this data automatically and surface the insights that matter
