What’s in the name?

Able to induce fascination and horror at the same time, the weta is a pre-historic insect endemic to New Zealand.

We adopted the weta as our name and symbol because it is uniquely Kiwi and because, despite its inherently docile nature, it terrifies much bigger creatures.

Recognizing that a simpler, lower-cost alternative wouldn’t come from vendors with a vested interest in network complexity, they developed solutions.
