Top Tech Startups in Auckland, New Zealand in 2027

Partly is UK-based, with an early team in the US, and our core engineering team in Christchurch, New Zealand. Partly's mission is to connect the world's parts and we're doing that by building the first global platform for replacement parts, starting with auto parts. Our big vision is to accelerate the world towards a sustainable future where waste is eliminated and all replacement parts are universally searchable, accessible and available to all. We've more than tripled our team over the last 12 months and expect to double in size again over the coming 12 months. We're a global team spanning both Europe and Australasia. Founded by ex-Rocket Lab engineers, we utilise bleeding-edge technology to solve challenging but exciting problems that make a huge impact in a $1.9 trillion industry. We provide a scalable digital infrastructure solution to some of the world's largest businesses and the most exciting startups. Partly's solutions are integrated across hundreds of companies globally, providing the backbone for cataloguing and managing parts online. Blackbird Ventures (Canva, CultureAmp etc.) led both our Pre-Seed and Seed rounds, alongside I2BF (NYC), Hillfarrance, Icehouse, Peter Beck (Rocket Lab), Akshay Kothari (Notion Co-Founder) and Dylan Field (Figma Co-Founder). We're continuing to build a world-class team and ensuring Partly is a place where people can do the best work of their lives. We're proud of the culture we've built at Partly, and our values are lived throughout every experience.

DBL Freight is a growing, New Zealand-owned freight-forwarding company based in Auckland. We help businesses move goods internationally through reliable sea freight, air freight, customs clearance, local transport, warehousing and 3PL solutions. We founded DBL Freight to solve a common problem in the logistics industry: many businesses receive impersonal service, slow responses and limited visibility when working with large freight providers. Our approach combines the capabilities of an international forwarder with the responsiveness and personal attention of a local business. Customers receive a dedicated point of contact supported by an online portal where they can track shipments, access invoices, upload and download documents, review quotations and communicate with our team. We specialise in supporting small and medium-sized importers and exporters, including businesses requiring LCL shipments, air freight and time-sensitive cargo movements. Our focus is simple: competitive solutions, clear communication, proactive shipment management and dependable service from origin to final delivery. We are building a modern, customer-focused freight business where technology supports relationships rather than replacing them. As a growing company, every team member has a genuine opportunity to influence our development, contribute ideas and see the direct results of their work. Our culture values ownership, honesty, initiative, responsiveness and continuous improvement. We look for people who communicate confidently, enjoy building business relationships and want to grow alongside an ambitious international logistics company.

Parents don't struggle to find options. They struggle to know what will actually work for their family. Every day, parents make decisions around activities, outings, holidays, and experiences using fragmented information, generic recommendations, and guesswork. We're building KiBi to change that. KiBi is building the decision intelligence layer for families: helping parents move from uncertainty to confident decisions. Travel is our entry point. The bigger opportunity is becoming the trusted system families rely on when decisions matter. We're early, focused, and building for the long term.
