A chatbot is a software application designed to simulate human conversation. It can interact with users through text (like a livechat window or message app) or voice (like virtual assistants such as Siri or Alexa). It can answer questions, guide users through tasks, provide support or recommendations and automate routine interactions (like booking appointments or checking account balances).

Why use our Chatbot?

Not all Chatbots are created equal

  • Why Choose Hinewai?

    Because it’s not just smart—it’s human-smart.

    Most chatbots can answer questions. Some can even automate tasks. But Hinewai’s chatbot goes further—it’s built to understand your business, reflect your values, and connect with your customers in a way that feels personal, natural, and distinctly Kiwi.

  • Here’s what makes us different:

    🌿 Culturally Grounded, Uniquely Kiwi

    Hinewai’s chatbot is designed with the values of Aotearoa at its core—manaakitanga (care), whanaungatanga (connection), and kaitiakitanga (guardianship). That means every interaction with your customers feels respectful, thoughtful, and grounded in trust.

    Your brand voice, your way—no generic scripts.

    🤖 AI That’s Easy to Use (No Geek-Speak)

    Let’s be honest—some bots feel like you need a PhD to get them running. Not ours.

    With Hinewai, there’s no complex setup, no technical jargon, and no hidden costs. Just a friendly interface, seamless onboarding, and tools that work right out of the box.

    We’ve done the hard work, so you don’t have to.

    đź’¬ Conversational, Not Robotic

    Your customers deserve better than robotic replies. Hinewai’s chatbot speaks in a way that’s natural, clear, and conversational—and it’s fully customisable to sound like you.

    Whether you're running a bakery in Blenheim or a law firm in Hamilton, our chatbot sounds like it belongs in your team.

    đź”’ Data You Can Trust

    We take privacy seriously. Your data stays in your hands—secure, private, and never sold. We’re a local team, operating with full transparency and a deep respect for your customers’ trust.

    ⚡ Built for Busy Business Owners

    Running a business is hard enough. Hinewai’s chatbot takes care of the repetitive stuff—answering FAQs, capturing leads, handling bookings—24/7. So you can focus on what you do best.

They work by using artificial intelligence to understand and respond to inquiries, making it easier for small business owners like you to connect with customers efficiently.
