The Cohorts

The Cohorts is a New Zealand-based digital partner that helps organisations plan, build, and evolve digital platforms and products that deliver long-term value. Founded in 2000, the business works alongside internal teams to translate strategy into practical, well-governed digital solutions that support growth, improve performance, and build operational confidence.

Rather than operating as a traditional agency, The Cohorts focuses on partnership and clarity. The team works closely with senior stakeholders to understand organisational goals, constraints, and capability, helping prioritise investment and reduce delivery risk. Their approach combines strategic thinking with hands-on delivery, ensuring digital initiatives are not only well designed but executable and sustainable over time.

The Cohorts specialises in bespoke digital platforms, product development, and performance optimisation across sectors including infrastructure, property, membership organisations, education, and commercial enterprises. With deep experience across design, technology, and digital strategy, the team creates scalable platforms aligned with governance requirements, internal ownership, and long-term organisational needs. AI capabilities are integrated thoughtfully and responsibly, supporting better decision-making and continuous improvement rather than short-term experimentation.

Over more than two decades, The Cohorts has built long-standing relationships with organisations seeking a pragmatic partner who understands both strategic ambition and operational reality. Their work is guided by a commitment to clarity, partnership, and outcomes, helping organisations invest in digital and AI with confidence and evolve their platforms as technology and expectations continue to change.
