Our manifesto
Building enterprise-grade tools for the teams that keep Aotearoa moving.
Knowd exists so New Zealand's SMEs can access the calibre of technology usually reserved for large enterprises. We stand beside the people who repair, create, grow, and serve—designing tooling, automations, and customer experiences that keep them ahead without burning cash or time.
We see the load SMEs carry
Keeping up with modern digital demands can feel like spinning twenty plates—websites, payments, content, marketing, analytics, CRM, AI, automation. That's on top of the real work you signed up for: serving customers and refining your craft.
Our job is to remove that burden. Every engagement starts with understanding how you operate today, the systems you trust, and the growth signals that matter. Then we only build what moves the needle.
Tailored, not templated
Your workflows, customers, and goals guide everything we ship—no generic blueprints, no upsells for features you'll never use.
Buy once, own it
Transparent scopes and pricing. You pay for outcomes, not endless licences or confusing retainers.
Human-first support
Need an ongoing partner? Our light retainers give you thinkers and builders, not a ticket queue.
What working with Knowd feels like
Clear conversation, rigorous build quality, and a shared appetite for impact. We split our work so you can choose the lane that fits.

The internet moved on from monolithic platforms. By building on the JAMstack—Astro, edge compute, serverless functions, and headless services—we deliver blazing fast performance, world-class security, and connections to every tool you rely on.
Compared to traditional WordPress builds, you get faster page loads, fewer plugin headaches, and freedom to plug in the systems you already pay for—Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Supabase, Stripe, you name it. If the tool doesn't exist yet, we can build it.
Near-instant load speeds, even on rural connections. Better SEO, happier customers.
Best-of-breed integrations instead of bloated suites. Keep the tools your team already loves.
No plugin update roulette. Secure pipelines built to scale as your business grows.
What you can expect from us
We're builders with a bias for clarity. You'll always know what we're doing, why it matters, and what it costs.
Transparent scopes
Diagnostics first, fixed scopes next. No vague "starting at" ranges, no surprise invoices.
Delivery in days & weeks
We ship in tight sprints. The sooner you see value, the sooner we can iterate or tackle the next challenge.
Local & invested
We live where you live. That means context, accessibility, and a partnership built on long-term outcomes.
Ready when you are
Scale Smarter. Build Faster.
Give us the context—what's slowing you down, what you've tried, and what "done" looks like. We'll map the leanest route and ship the work so you can focus on customers, product, and growth.
