A software and AI studio in Hamilton, New Zealand

Longcloud was born under the long white cloud, Aotearoa, from a simple belief: New Zealand businesses deserve world-class software and AI built by people who understand how they actually work. Both founders were raised on farms, and they bring that practical, number eight wire thinking to every build.

Paul Singh leads the commercial and sales side. He has spent more than 25 years in procurement, supply chain and commercial leadership, leading global procurement portfolios at Fonterra and reshaping national supply chain and procurement operations at Southern Cross Healthcare, and he founded the consultancy HMK Services in 2019.

Nick Foley leads the build: the architecture, the code and the AI that speeds it up, which he has been putting to work in production since 2018. He came to software from finance and supply chain leadership, and alongside Longcloud he owns Foley & Co, his Hamilton business advisory practice, and chairs Connect Waikato.

Between them the founders bring more than 40 years across technology, finance, procurement and supply chain, at organisations including Fonterra, KPMG and Southern Cross Healthcare. Longcloud is deliberately small, so you deal with the people doing the work from the first conversation to launch and beyond.

Our mission is to help New Zealand businesses compete on the global stage with intelligent, scalable technology, built with kaitiakitanga: guardianship and care for what we build.
