For trade businesses
AI for Australian trade businesses.
You're on the tools. The phone rings. Voicemail catches it. The lead's gone. We build the AI receptionist that answers in your voice, qualifies the job, books the quote slot, and texts you the address. Saturday quoting becomes optional, not mandatory.

What you're doing now · What we'd ship instead
The before/after, in plain numbers.
You, today
Missed calls = lost $2,000 jobs
Every call you miss while quoting another job is revenue walking. Voicemail callback rates are dropping every year.
Quoting eats your Saturdays
Photos in WhatsApp, supplier prices in your head, sit-down at the kitchen table on the weekend. Family time is the price.
Scheduling is a permanent juggling act
Sparkies want their day locked. Customers want flexibility. You broker between them on the phone, mid-job, with grease on your hands.
Tech advice for tradies is mostly LinkedIn-bro nonsense
You've seen the AI receptionist pitches. Most of them are SaaS resellers who've never been on a roof. You want a fixed price, an Australian on the other end, and a working system in 14 days.
You, with us
AI receptionist that sounds like you
Answers in your voice, gets the address, the job type, the urgency, the contact name. Books an inspection slot against your diary. Texts you with everything you need before you arrive.
Quote-from-photo agent
Customer sends a photo of the job. AI estimates the scope, calls out missing info, drafts a ballpark for your review. You approve in 2 minutes from your phone instead of 2 hours at the kitchen table.
ServiceM8 + Xero booking sync
Every booked job lands in ServiceM8 with the right job type, materials checklist, customer details. Xero invoice generates on completion. You touch nothing.
Saturdays back
No more weekend quoting. No more "I'll call them back tomorrow". Your phone rings, the AI handles it, you get on with the job.

Still weighing it up?
Honest comparisons vs the alternatives.
Most trade businesses we talk to are also looking at one of these paths. We've written a fair comparison for each.
Real questions trade businesses ask
Common before-you-book questions.
Will my customers know it's AI?
It introduces itself as your booking assistant — most customers don't care, they care about getting a quote booked. If a customer specifically asks to speak to you, the AI takes a message, books a callback slot in your diary, and SMSes you immediately. You stay in control of the calls that matter.
Does this work with ServiceM8 / simPRO / Tradify?
Yes. Every job booked by the AI lands in your existing job-management tool with the right tags, materials checklist and customer details. We do not migrate you off your current stack — we plug into it.
What about emergencies / after-hours?
The AI is trained to triage. Emergency keywords (gas leak, no power, sewage backup, electrical hazard) trigger an immediate SMS to you with the customer's number and address. Non-emergencies get booked into business hours. You define the emergency list on the audit call.
If you're a trade businesse, book the 30-minute audit.
