For NZ small business owners

Your accounting software watches the tax dates. Who’s watching the rest?

The lease notice window. The licence renewal. The insurance date you’d forgotten you had. Amplifai knows what to ask across 29 kinds of dates — it walks you through the dates your business is carrying, computes the ones that follow from your answers, and watches the lot with enough runway to act.

See it in action

The 2am jolt — waking up half-remembering something’s due.

A small business’s July — the dates it’s actually carrying.

A preview with sample data, live and interactive — open any entry for the determination and the record behind it. The wizard knows what to ask across 29 kinds of dates. Two states, and the difference is the whole point: muted is what your software already has covered, and accent is what it doesn’t — a date the wizard’s questions surfaced, or one a determination computed from your answers. The shape of your year depends on facts only you have.

What a tap looks like

Determination reminder

TPV window closes in 14 days — here’s what to do

Your 90-day trial determination has a dated window. Amplifai watches that deadline and taps you with runway — the rule cited, the record still in your workspace — so you act before the window closes.

Determination reminders (trial windows, GST re-checks, and the like) — and the dates you add yourself.

Curious?

The whole product — more than dates

Everything on your plate lands in one of four piles.

Some jobs are handled by software you already use. Some you’re not completely sure about. Some keep sliding to next week. And some need a professional.

I’ll deal with it later

AI-assisted

The big-picture calls you keep parking — pricing, the next hire, whether that plan’s actually worth it. Not urgent, so they wait. Amplifai gives you the consultant’s version: the framework, the numbers, the honest read — without the consultant.

Already sorted

These never make the worry list—your accounting and payroll software already takes care of them.

  • GST returns
  • PAYE & KiwiSaver
  • Income & provisional tax
  • Payroll & leave calcs
  • Tax invoices
  • Wage & time records

Need a pro

Some calls shouldn't be carried alone—but you don’t walk in cold. When Amplifai routes one out, you arrive at your accountant or lawyer already briefed: what the issue is, the questions worth asking, and which expert to ask them of. The meter starts with you already halfway there.

  • Serious health and safety events
  • Insolvency and solvency
  • Director liability
  • Contract drafting
  • Shareholder disputes
  • Representing you in an employment dispute

Not a dead end—a warm handoff. The right questions, for the right person.

What’s due when?

Runs under all four

Oh man — that’s due tomorrow.

The stuff you meant to get to — the lease, the licence, the notice window nothing else is watching — surfaced with enough runway that tomorrow never happens.

Why you can trust what it tells you

Amplifai started with one question.

Could AI be trusted to help small business owners apply legislation and business obligations correctly?

Turned out it couldn't.

Left to itself, it makes things up.

But it turned out AI was exceptionally good at a different job: compiling legislation, guidance and industry practice into something one person could actually verify.

We stopped asking AI to know the answer and used it to help build one instead.

That's the answer to the calls with a rule behind them — GST, trials, contractor or employee. The rule decides, and you can check it against the source.

The bigger calls don't have a rule to look up. What to charge. Whether the hire's worth it. Where the business is actually headed. There we don't pretend there's a verdict — AI lays out the framework, the numbers, the honest read, and shows its working. You make the call.

AI builds the knowledge. Amplifai applies the rules — and where there's no rule to apply, helps you decide without ever deciding for you.

Chasing unpaid invoicesRule-basedThey won't pay — what can I actually do?
A straightforward B2B debt — services delivered, invoices issued, no quality dispute, just non-payment. The Consumer Guarantees Act doesn’t apply; the question is which recovery lever to reach for, and in what order.What you tell it

“We are a plumber; commercial client owes $8,400 on three invoices over 90 days overdue. No dispute on work quality. What recovery steps does the source material support before court?”

Track: receivables · Operator side: supplier

What you getPosition assessment — claims

Straightforward B2B commercial debt recovery — $8,400, 90+ days overdue, no quality dispute. CGA does not apply. Primary forum: pre-court negotiation.

C7 · ESTABLISHEDA direct phone call to the client's decision-maker — not accounts payable — before any formal escalation, to establish whether non-payment is cashflow, an administrative failure, or a deliberate decision not to pay. That shapes which lever to reach for next.

C9 · FLAGGEDThe Construction Contracts Act 2002 may apply to the plumbing work, potentially providing access to a statutory payment claim regime — but whether the work constitutes ‘construction work’ under that Act has not been confirmed…

C14 · FLAGGEDThe client's legal structure has not been confirmed — a material gap: the statutory demand pathway is only available against a company…

Your next right move — escalate in order

Escalate in order: automated reminders at the due date, 7 days overdue, and 14 days → the phone call → written demand — never jumping a rung to legal tools. The phone call before the lawyer letter recovers more than the lawyer letter does. Jumping to a demand before a phone call is theatre.

A statutory demand is only for a debt that isn't genuinely disputed. If you have reason to doubt the debtor's solvency, take advice before escalating past the phone call.

Business caseAI-assistedCan the business carry its first hire?
A solo operator billing ~$180k wants to hire their first full-timer at ~$70k — so they can stop delivering and start selling.What you tell it

Revenue ~$180k, owner delivers all of it. The hire: ~$70k plus on-costs, to take over delivery. The upside: $60–90k of new revenue once ramped — but it depends on clients who aren't signed yet, while the salary is fixed from day one.

What you getInvestment case — options, not a verdict

It doesn't answer yes or no. It reframes the question: affordability isn't the gate — pipeline is. Then it lays out four real options.

Hire now, gated on pipeline — proceed only on ≥2 qualified prospects; contingency triggered by month 2 if it stalls.

Hire after validation — 4–8 weeks proving the pipeline first. De-risks it; costs a quarter of growth.

Hybrid / contractors — absorb overflow without fixed payroll. Flexible, higher unit cost, builds no team.

Hold and invest in sales — $15–25k into lead-gen; test conversion before committing to payroll. Preserves cash, owner stays the bottleneck.

The recommendation — and the gate

Hire now — but only subject to the pipeline gate. If the owner can name two credible prospects, the $80–85k all-in is manageable and the $60–90k upside justifies it. If they can't, waiting is safer.

The point isn't the answer. It's that the scaffold turns a binary bet into a gated, managed call — and leaves that call with the owner.

The case ends by handing you a prompt to attack its own conclusion:

Act as a sceptical CFO who does not want me to do this.

- Which numbers here are assumptions wearing the clothes of facts?
- What has this case not asked me that it should have?
- Where is the reasoning weakest?
- What would have to be true for the recommendation to be wrong?

Don't be balanced. Find the holes.
