Nikau AI is a New Zealand-based AI agency that helps Kiwi businesses reduce repetitive work, improve efficiency and build practical AI tools that make everyday operations smoother.

Meet Darren
Darren brings over 25 years of experience in sales, tech and solution-driven businesses—from e-commerce to real-estate and property investment. Spotting early how AI could transform websites into 24/7 sales machines, he now creates AI-powered agents that deliver real, measurable results. Off the job you’ll find Darren near the sea—surfing, wake-boarding or snow-boarding his way through adventures.

Tech expertise without the jargon
We’re fully trained and experienced in today’s leading AI tools—but we keep things simple. We break down complex tech in plain, friendly language so your whole team can understand it. No jargon, no overwhelm—just clear guidance that makes AI feel easy and approachable.
