About

We’ve been around the block for a few years, creating meaningful digital products, experiences and ideas along the way.

Our software projects are built around a simple idea: useful tools should also be easy to use. Clear interfaces, thoughtful interactions and less friction between people and the work they need to get done.

Our products

01 Live operations

Orbytal

Real-time coordination for complex operations — people, incidents and information in one live picture.

Orbytal tracks staff, manages incidents and keeps control rooms and field teams working from the same information — on a festival site, in a stadium or alongside an event medical team. Every deployment is configured around how that operation actually runs: its site, its teams, its hardware.

For
Live events, stadiums and arenas, event medical
Runs on
iOS and Android, plus a live command centre

Plan of an event site with a stage, crowd area, bar, medical post, control room and two gates. Teams are spread across the site; an incident in the crowd is marked and the nearest team is heading to it. Stage Bar Medical Control Gate 1 P2

02 Warehouse management

WolfPak

Warehouse software that makes picking, packing and dispatch simpler.

Orders flow in from Shopify or WooCommerce. Staff scan-pick along optimised routes, every order is double-checked at packing, and freight is booked with New Zealand carriers without switching systems. Fewer steps between an order arriving and a parcel leaving.

For
E-commerce warehouses and 3PLs
Works with
Shopify, WooCommerce, NZ Post, NZ Couriers, Mainfreight

What we do

Product design, software development and a good deal of operational thinking — understanding how a warehouse or a control room actually works before deciding what to build. The years we spent on websites, video and marketing still show up, mostly in how things look, read and feel to use.

Design.
Interfaces that hold up when things get busy — on a warehouse floor or in a control room.
Software.
Web and mobile apps, integrations and the infrastructure that keeps them running.
Digital systems.
Hardware, networks and process — the parts around the software that make it hold up on the day.
