Why Aotearoa Labs
Personal problems.
Practical software.
Aotearoa Labs is an independent New Zealand software and technology studio. Our work spans children's learning, gaming utilities, industrial tools, AI-assisted CAD, and hands-on prototyping, but every project follows the same idea: make something genuinely useful.
AOTEAURORA is our first app published on Google Play, turning complex space weather and local viewing conditions into a clear forecast for New Zealand. Our next release is AddVenture, followed by a visual science app for ages 9–12.
