The Lemana Whānau

The Family Behind It All

WedgewoodAI is a single father and his four children, building simple AI tools for the problems in our own lives — and a way for our kids to work in a world that fits them. Three of our four children are on the autism spectrum, and that different way of seeing the world is woven through everything we make.

The Fur Family

Six Cats and a Dog

No Lemana whānau page would be complete without the fur family — the six cats and one very good dog who keep the home office company.
