What we do

Our services.

We work at the intersection of AI, automation and digital marketing.

AI and automation do the heavy lifting: taking the processes, systems and customer conversations that currently run through you and making them run without you. Brand and online reputation work then makes sure the business a buyer investigates looks as strong as it performs.

*We help with one aspect of the business succession plan, however we are not a substitute for business or financial advice.

Our process

We can complete automation and readiness work in as little as six to eight weeks.

You choose how far we go. We can stop at the quick wins and keep it light touch, or work through the whole business. Either way you see the shortlist first and decide from there.

About us
Matt Poland
Matt Poland
Co-Founder

Matt started Project Communications, a PR and marketing agency, in 2013, building a decade-long background across marketing, PR, business systems and customer experience. The studio took a new direction in 2025, after he saw first-hand in his own business what AI and automation could do — and how much easier it made a business to hand over.

Alongside client work we run a venture studio, building and operating our own AI products — heyvo.ai, an AI phone and enquiry handling platform, and piki.study, an AI study platform for New Zealand students.
