About Us
Innovation That Serves. Technology That Cares.
At Hinewai.AI, we believe technology should do more than just work—it should serve. That’s why we’ve built our AI tools with one simple goal: to make life easier for small and medium-sized Kiwi businesses, without losing the personal touch that makes them special.
Born in Aotearoa and grounded in its values, Hinewai.AI is more than just a tech company—we're a trusted partner. We understand the late nights, the long to-do lists, and the passion behind every small business. And we’re here to help you focus on what matters most.
Our Mission
To empower businesses with smart, ethical AI tools that save time, reduce stress, and strengthen human connection—guided by the values of manaakitanga, whanaungatanga, kaitiakitanga, and tikanga.
Our Vision
A future where technology supports people—not replaces them. We envision a world where even the smallest business can access powerful AI that feels intuitive, empowering, and deeply human.
What Makes Us Different?
🌀 Culturally Rooted
We’re proudly built on the values of Aotearoa, infusing care, connection, and guardianship into everything we do.
🤝 Human-Centred
Our tools are designed to support your mahi, not take it over. No jargon. No overwhelm. Just helpful, honest tech.
🔒 Ethical by Design
We believe in transparency and trust. Your data is yours. Always.
💡 Purposeful Automation
AI isn’t about flashy tech—it’s about solving real problems. We help you automate what doesn’t need your attention, so you can focus on what does.
Our Name, Our Heart
Hinewai—a name inspired by the wisdom of nature and the strength of wāhine. It reflects our commitment to care, growth, and guardianship. Just like the Hinewai Reserve on Banks Peninsula, we believe in nurturing ecosystems that thrive—both natural and digital.
Let’s Build a Better Future, Together
We’re here to walk alongside you as you navigate the world of automation. Whether you’re just starting out or ready to grow, Hinewai.AI offers AI solutions that feel right—not just technically, but culturally too.
Because when technology honours people, everybody wins
