Founder, HQ Travel Group
Xavier helped us merge two legacy systems into one unified platform with zero downtime. The ROI was immediate: maintenance costs dropped, and now everything runs in one in-house software that we fully control.
When your tools don't talk to each other and the workarounds are piling up, we untangle it. We build the custom software, websites and integrations that get your business running the way it should — practical, reliable, and built to last.
Six ways we help businesses move faster — from quick MVPs to long-term builds, audits, and conversion work.

Our process
Most engagements move through the same rhythm. Discovery is paid but always refundable against the build if you decide to go ahead.
Week 0 · Discover
A working session with your team — we map the stack, the people, and the bottlenecks. You leave with a one-page plan, whether or not you hire us.
Week 1 · Shape
We agree what's in and — just as important — what's out. Wireframes for any UI, an architecture sketch for any system, and a fixed-fee proposal.
Weeks 2–5 · Build
Weekly demos in your environment. You see real product every Friday — no surprise reveals at the end, no 30-page status reports nobody reads.
Week 6 · Hand over
The code is yours. The credentials are yours. We document the build so your next hire can pick it up without a meeting — and we stay on retainer if you want us to.
How we work
Plain terms, relatable metaphors, and the occasional well-placed jab at duct-taped tech. We translate without dumbing down — no jargon, no overcomplicating.
Good enough isn't good enough. If we build it, we're proud of it. Duct tape doesn't ship from here.
We don't paper over symptoms. We strip back, find what's actually broken, and create a jumping board for the next level.
Every project is built for real life by real people. We listen, we understand, we design. Technology as a tool — not a takeover.
We're in the tech jungle with our clients, exploring the good, the bad, and the unknown. Solutions born from experience, not guesswork.
We help New Zealand businesses — and a few clients further afield — achieve measurable results.

Director, Done by Nine
We partner with XAVER for high-complexity projects, when custom applications or specialised integrations are needed, so our team can concentrate on strategy and creative work.
Founder, Brandkit
Xavier streamlined our deploy process so new features go live safely and more often. That means our platform evolves at a faster pace and we have more time to focus on customer needs.
