AI guesses at local rules. Aroai gives ChatGPT, Claude and Copilot checked tools for official records, 1000s of local datasets and bespoke tools, so the answer is right the first time.

In blind tests Aroai won 95.8% of supplier checks against plain AI. Every tool on the board earned its place the same way.
“What will our first employee on $68,000 really cost us?”
$70,380 a year, before ACC levies.
Plain AI answers from memory and whatever web search turns up. Aroai’s tools reach what search rarely does: official and industry registers, published datasets, legal information, licensed and proprietary data, and public records behind a login. Flip the switch to compare.
“Before our rent review: what do three-bedroom houses rent for in Riccarton South, Christchurch?”
Without Aroai: Tax and payroll rules change, and plain AI can answer from last year’s information.
With Aroai: Check payroll deductions, employer levies, provisional tax and GST against current source material.
Open this boardBefore a tool goes on the board, we test it against plain AI on real local questions, judged blind.
46 generic skills on the rack.
| Supplier and counterparty checks | 95.8% |
|---|---|
| Employer and professional registers | 94%+ |
| Generic skills turned down in testing | 40 of 46 |
| Real business questions in the test | 350+ |
Each question was answered twice, by plain AI with web search and by the same AI with Aroai, then judged blind with the order swapped.

Aroai is a curated local intelligence and workflow layer for the AI you already use. It gives assistants checked tools for business records, pay rates, tax rules, tenders and public information, with sources and dates so you can review where an answer came from.
Aroai connects with Claude, ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot, as well as other supported AI and workflow clients. Choose your assistant on the connect page for its setup steps. In a company workspace, an administrator may switch the connection on for everyone.
Researcher is an ongoing free plan with 1,000 monthly credits shared across workspaces under the account. Paid plans have larger allowances and exact prices shown in five currencies on the pricing page. On supported connections you can use your own provider key, which can lower credit use; the provider may bill you directly.
Aroai currently provides tools and local context for New Zealand and Australia. Each country has its own registers, pay rules and tax rules, and Aroai keeps them distinct, so name the country in your request. More countries are on the way.
Web search finds pages for an AI to read and guess from. Aroai’s tools go to sources search rarely reaches: official and industry registers, published datasets and spreadsheets, legal information, licensed and proprietary data, and public records that sit behind a login or request form. Each answer comes back with its source and the date it was checked.
Yes, where a source supports it. Add your own key or login for that source to your Aroai workspace. Those requests then use fewer Aroai credits, the provider bills you directly, and they run under your own account, which keeps them more private still. The provider keys guide in the Library lists the supported sources.
No. Aroai is a read-only data source. Your AI decides when to use a tool and sends only that request, such as a business name to check. Aroai returns the answer and changes nothing. It has no view of your conversations, files, email or business systems.
Aroai tools read official records and other public information. Every answer comes with its source and the date it was checked, so you and your AI can open the material behind it before you act. Records and rules stay separate for each country, and every tool page in the Library shows what that tool reads.
No. Aroai prepares sourced information and workflows for you and your advisers to review. Legal, tax, financial, health, engineering and safety decisions stay with you and a qualified professional, and Aroai works alongside your accounting, CRM, commerce and other business systems.
Ask us for it. Tell us what the tool, connector or skill should do and the source or system it needs. We confirm the scope with you, build it for free within 5 days, test it against plain AI like every tool on the board, and add it to your workspace when it is ready.
Create a free Aroai workspace, choose your AI assistant on the connect page and follow its three steps. Each guide ends with a first request you can copy, so you can paste it into your AI and see a sourced answer in a few minutes.
