Middleware & API Integrations for Connected Systems
Far North Coastal Real Estate – PropertySuite Integration
Far North Coastal Real Estate is a boutique agency offering personalised services with a focus on technology-driven solutions for buying and selling properties. As part of their digital transformation, they partnered with us to rebuild their website and improve how property data was managed and displayed through PropertySuite integration.
The Challenges
Limited control over data – Far North Coastal relied on PropertySuite’s monthly subscription to manage property listings. This made it difficult to control how listings appeared on their website and added recurring third-party costs.
Performance and flexibility issues – Using external systems created slower load times and limited flexibility in updating content or filtering listings.
The Solution
We developed a custom middleware and API integration that connects PropertySuite directly to their new CMS.
This setup enables:
Real-time live property data and instant updates
Smart search and filtering for a better user experience
Faster load times and smoother performance
A user-friendly CMS so the team can manage everything in-house
By combining a modern website design with a powerful API connection, Far North Coastal gained full ownership of their listings and improved both site speed and customer experience.
John Minn / McGrath Nicol — Custom LinkedIn Data Integration
A litigation support specialist needed a simple way to visualise engagement data from his professional LinkedIn activity as traditional web-tracking and analytics were not possible.
We developed a lightweight integration that automatically connects his LinkedIn profile metrics to a Looker Studio dashboard - giving him ongoing visibility of content reach, impressions, and audience trends without relying on a website.
The Challenges
No dedicated website or landing page – we wanted performance data similar to Google Analytics. Without a site, there was no way to track or visualise post reach, profile visits, or interaction patterns in one place.
Limited access to analytics – Operating as a sub-brand, we could not install external tags or tracking scripts, which made standard reporting tools unavailable.
Manual monitoring – LinkedIn Analytics offers useful insights but requires logging in, exporting data, and combining metrics manually — a time-consuming task for a busy professional.
The Solution
We created a custom data connector that automatically pulls performance data from LinkedIn into Looker Studio.
The integration runs through a secure middleware API that extracts profile and post-level engagement data — such as impressions, reactions, and follower growth — then transforms it into a format compatible with Google’s Data API.
This setup provides:
Automated data syncs between LinkedIn and Looker Studio (updated daily).
Visual dashboards showing post performance, audience demographics, and follower trends.
No manual exports or spreadsheets needed — can now view all metrics in real time.
Xtreme Zero Waste – Collections Platform Integration
Xtreme Zero Waste operates a kerbside pickup program for local businesses. Their systems were manual and outdated, resulting in unnecessary truck trips, time-consuming paperwork, and inefficiencies in scheduling and invoicing. They needed a digital solution to automate their operations and improve service delivery.
The Challenges
Inefficient resource allocation – Trucks were often visiting empty bins with no way for businesses to schedule pickups on demand.
Manual systems – Invoices and registrations were processed using paper run sheets, increasing admin time and the risk of errors.
The Solution
We built a custom web application powered by a middleware API that connects businesses, drivers, and admin staff in real time.
This integration introduced:
On-demand pickup scheduling and automated notifications
Live route updates for drivers to improve efficiency
Automated invoicing and data syncing across systems
Centralised management through a single dashboard
The new platform reduced on-road time by 50%, cut staff admin hours by 80%, and led to 12% less waste going to landfill — helping Xtreme Zero Waste move closer to their goal of a cleaner, more efficient circular economy.
Raglan Holiday Park — Website Redesign & System Integration
Raglan Holiday Park is an iconic coastal holiday destination, offering accommodation and camping just steps from the ocean.
The park’s original website was hosted on a third-party platform tied to its booking provider, limiting flexibility and control over design, SEO, and updates. The team wanted a new, fully owned site that reflected the park’s laid-back charm while improving online visibility and user experience.
The Challenges
Restricted management control – The existing site was hosted on Newbook’s closed platform, meaning all edits, tracking, and SEO changes had to go through external support. This created delays and limited the park’s ability to optimise content or manage updates in-house.
Outdated design & UX – The website didn’t reflect the park’s fun, family-friendly identity and lacked the flexibility needed for modern marketing campaigns.
Technical limitations – Because of the platform setup, integrations such as analytics, Google Ads tracking, and SEO tools were restricted or unavailable.
The Solution
We rebuilt the website on a client-owned WordPress platform, designed around usability and performance. The new site retained Newbook’s booking engine integration while removing all unnecessary dependencies, giving the park complete autonomy over its content and marketing.
This setup provides:
- Faster performance: Reduced load times and improved Core Web Vitals.
- Increased control: The park can now manage content, imagery, and promotions internally.
- Improved visibility: Optimised metadata and structured content have strengthened SEO.
- Stronger brand presence: The new design reflects Raglan’s vibrant, welcoming coastal identity.
