Data & Analytics

Data your business
can actually trust.

Dashboards, pipelines, cleansing, AI training data and document processing — human-in-the-loop data operations where AI handles the volume and a person checks the logic, signs off the numbers and stays accountable.

Data smartsourcing is dedicated analysts, BI developers and data engineers running your reporting, pipelines and data operations — human-in-the-loop by design. Automation handles the volume; people handle the judgment: edge cases, contradictions and everything your board will rely on.

Why Tandem

Numbers you can actually stand behind.

A human owns every output

AI does the crunching; a person checks the logic, signs off the numbers and is accountable for what your board sees.

Built on your stack

We work with the tools and data you already run — your CRM, ERP, spreadsheets and warehouse. No rip-and-replace. Your data can stay entirely in your environment.

Safe and governed

Privacy-first pipelines, least-privilege access and clear definitions so your data helps decisions without leaking or drifting.

Roles you can hire

Pick a specialist, or a whole pod.

Each one is augmented by AI and owned by a person who signs off your work.

How it works

From messy data to numbers you trust.

1

Define what counts

We agree definitions, sources and quality thresholds up front — so the output matches what your business actually measures.

2

Pilot & calibrate

A small batch runs end-to-end first. Only when it clears the quality bar does full production start.

3

AI runs, humans judge

Automation handles the volume; analysts handle the exceptions, contradictions and edge cases — and sign off every output.

4

Owned for the long run

Schemas evolve, data goes stale — the same team maintains it. Scale up or down month to month, no lock-in.

Cost a fraction of
a local hire.

The output of a data analyst or BI developer — without the salary, super, recruitment or downtime. Run the numbers for your exact role.

FAQ

Data & Analytics, answered.

Which tools do you work in?
Power BI, Looker, Tableau and Metabase for dashboards; BigQuery, Snowflake and Postgres for warehousing; dbt for modelling. We meet you on whatever you already run.
Our data is messy and spread across spreadsheets — can you still help?
That's the usual starting point. We clean, consolidate and pipe it into one place first, so the reporting on top is actually trustworthy.
Will AI decide what the numbers mean?
No. AI speeds up the crunching and drafting; a person checks the logic and owns every figure before it reaches your board or your customers.
Can you work inside our systems, without data leaving our environment?
Yes. We can operate entirely within your infrastructure — your warehouse, your BI tool, your CRM, your annotation platform — with least-privilege access and full audit trails.
Who owns the data, models and IP?
You do. Every dataset, dashboard, pipeline and derivative work product transfers to you — no residual claim, no licensing fees.
How much does data support cost?
A dedicated data analyst or BI developer starts from about NZ$3.2k/month — typically 60–80% less than a NZ$120k+/year local hire. Run your exact role through the cost calculator.
How fast can we start?
About two weeks, starting with a small scoped pilot batch so definitions and quality thresholds are calibrated before full production.
Is our data kept private?
Yes — privacy-first pipelines, encrypted transfer, least-privilege access and NDAs as standard, so your data stays yours and stays safe.
