AI Consulting · Brisbane, Australia
We build AI systems
that actually ship.
Not slide decks. Not proof-of-concepts that stall. Production systems solving real problems for Australian businesses — computer vision, intelligent agents, and automation that runs while you sleep.
“The people who understand the business don't understand the engineering. The people who understand the engineering treat every project like an academic exercise.”
— The gap Novastra exists to close
It ships.
It runs.
It works at 3am.
How we work
From problem to production.
You talk.
We listen.
You tell us what hurts. We ask hard questions and figure out if AI is actually the right tool — not every problem needs a neural network.
We prove it
in days.
A working proof with your real data, not synthetic demos. The smallest thing that shows the approach works — before anyone writes a proposal.
We build it
to last.
Production-grade engineering. Proper infrastructure, monitoring, error handling. The boring stuff that makes systems survive contact with reality.
We stay
until it runs.
We don't hand over a zip file and disappear. We deploy, monitor, and iterate. Most of our systems run 24/7 with autonomous agents handling edge cases.
What we do
Four ways we make AI useful.
Each engagement starts with your problem, not our technology. Here's where we tend to create the most value.
Computer Vision
See what humans miss
We build visual inspection systems that run in production — drone-based roof damage detection, manufacturing QC, agricultural monitoring. Real models deployed on real infrastructure, not notebooks that never leave the lab.
Our flagship product, Aris Detect, processes thousands of property inspections with ML-powered damage detection. We know what it takes to ship vision systems that work at scale.
Custom YOLO models, GPU inference on RunPod + AWS Lambda, real-time multi-user collaboration.
AI Agents
Autonomous systems that triage bugs, review code, process data, and make decisions — running without human intervention. Not chatbots. Real agents that take action.

From experiment to production
Custom model training and deployment on GPU infrastructure. YOLO, transformer models, MLOps pipelines — from experiment to production inference at scale.

“We had three people spending half their day copying data between systems. Now it just happens.”
Report generation, document processing, real-time collaboration, webhook pipelines — we eliminate the manual handoffs that eat your team's time.

In our delivery process
Not our first build
Proven in production.
Novastra isn't a consulting shop that hands you a PDF and disappears. We build and run production AI systems — including our own SaaS platform, Aris Detect, which processes drone-based property inspections for real inspectors across Australia.
That means we understand the full stack: model training on GPU infrastructure, serverless deployment on AWS, real-time collaboration via WebSockets, and autonomous AI agents that run 24/7. We've shipped it. We maintain it. We know where the hard parts are.
