AI consulting for government
VibeZero builds citizen portals and internal workflow automation for Australian local and state government organisations, meeting public sector compliance requirements. Replace email-driven workflows, manual handoffs and FOI backlogs with tools that work.
If service requests live in email inboxesand FOI is a manual backlog, there's a better way
Government organisations still run citizen services and internal processes through email chains, manual handoffs, and paper-based workflows. Service requests, FOI processing, procurement workflows and inter-departmental approvals are manual processes that stretch already-thin teams and frustrate citizens.
We build the replacement, compliant with public sector frameworks, in weeks, without the multi-year procurement cycle. Most engagements start with an AI readiness audit to see where the quick wins are.

What our clients say
Josh and the VibeZero team turned a mess of ideas into a working product faster than I thought possible. They actually listened to what we needed, didn't overcomplicate things, and delivered something our team could use straight away. Genuinely one of the best tech experiences I've had as a business owner.
