Why we exist
Close the strategy-to-delivery gap
Many teams have strong strategy and strong engineering, but weak connection between the two. We were built to bridge that gap with one operating model.
About DataNAI
Engineering-first delivery for organisations that need outcomes, not demos.
DataNAI is a New Zealand-based Data and AI engineering and consulting partner. We work with leadership, product, data, and engineering teams to move from fragmented initiatives to reliable delivery systems.
How we work
Co-delivery with your internal teams
We embed with product, platform, and domain teams to ship measurable increments while transferring capability and ownership.
Where we focus
Regulated and operationally complex environments
Finance, retail, education, and public services where governance, integration, and reliability are non-negotiable.
Operating principles
Three principles that shape every engagement.
Business outcomes first
Every architecture and model decision maps to a clear operational or financial KPI.
Execution over theatre
We optimise for shippable increments, not presentation volume.
Capability transfer
We leave teams with playbooks, controls, and ownership structures that can run independently.
Location and support model
Auckland, New Zealand · Delivery support aligned to New Zealand business hours.
We support NZ and AU delivery teams, with architecture patterns designed for local compliance and data residency requirements.
