Pilot Programme
The Aotea pilot programme is intended to evaluate practical implementation and community interest before any broader introduction of the service.
Let’s Get Started
Our Pilot
Current area installation
Curby is currently conducting a small pilot initiative in Aotea to test residential address visibility markings and understand community interest.
A limited number of homes will be selected during this pilot phase. Insights from participating households will help guide potential expansion to other neighbourhoods.
If you live in Aotea and would like to participate or learn more, please register your interest using the form.
About Curby
Curby is a dedicated service of Locate NZ, focused on community empowerment and accessibility. Our mission is to support easier navigation for local services, delivery teams, and emergency responders through clear, durable visibility solutions.
Our Why
Curby was born from a personal emergency where seconds truly mattered. We learned first-hand that a mere two-minute difference in finding an address can be life-altering for emergency responders. Sadly, in our case, help did not arrive in time for our loved one. We share this story because it drives our mission: ensuring that no home remains hidden in the dark when every moment counts.
