About us

Swerve is a responsive, 100% Kiwi-owned technology business.

We are headquartered in Auckland and service clients across New Zealand.

Our customers are diverse, from the engineering firms that build the infrastructure of the nation, to the Hobbiton team in Middle-earth that warm the hearts of countless international (and local) visitors.

No matter their business, each client enjoys big team capability, delivered with small team agility - and the simplicity of one responsive IT partner for everything.

We believe IT matters


Our purpose: To put people at the heart of technology, as we design, deliver, and support exceptional IT experiences that keep business humming.

Swerve was founded in 1999 and for over 25 years we've taken care of technology because we know IT matters.

IT matters because it powers the engine rooms of the Kiwi economy. Businesses like yours, that is.

IT matters because it protects IP, data, and the lifeblood of livelihoods in an age of sophisticated cyber crime. IT matters for productivity, for communication, for healthy communities, and for everything that keeps New Zealand humming in a digital world.
