Free preliminary check

A free preliminary check for payroll, AI, cloud security and access control

Answer a few questions about one check, or all four. You see a reading on this page, with the public New Zealand sources behind it, and we email you a copy.

A preliminary check is not an audit. The audit reads every pay line and every setting; this reads your answers.

What this check is, and is not

Free, with no login. Each check takes a few minutes, and every question has a "Not sure" answer.
Based on your answers and on public sources, each one named and dated.
Not an audit, not legal advice, and never a verdict on your organisation.

A short call to scope it. A fixed fee before we start. Big Four experience, without the junior team or the Big Four fee, in days not months.
