How it works

Live in 14 days. Then we keep it running.

You don't need to be good with computers. We set it all up remotely, test it properly, and nothing goes live until you've said yes.

The setup

From signing up to going live.

  1. Kickoff call, about an hour

    We talk through your services, the areas you cover, the prices you're happy to give out, what counts as urgent and who gets the call.

  2. We build it

    We connect your phone, website form and the apps you already use, and write a short summary of your business for you to check.

  3. 20+ test calls

    We ring it like a customer would: easy jobs, odd questions, emergencies. We fix and retest until every one passes.

  4. You approve it, it goes live

    We hand it over with a one-page "how it works" sheet for you and your crew.

  5. We watch it and tune it

    Daily checks at first, then weekly. If something's off, we fix it.

  6. Your results report

    What came in, what got chased and what got paid, in dollars.

How it fits together

Your customers get in touch the way they always have.

We sit in the middle and make sure every enquiry ends up in the right place.

Where the AI stops

Clear rules, agreed with you before go-live.

The AI does the routine work. Anything it shouldn't handle comes to you. We set these rules together on the kickoff call.

Emergency

Goes straight to your mobile.

Wants a person

Gets a callback promise, and you get a text.

Prices

It never quotes a price you haven't given us.

Bookings

It only books times that are free in your calendar.

Honest

It says it's an AI assistant at the start of every call, and that calls may be recorded.

Your data

Your customers' details stay yours.

You own your data. Logins are kept in a password manager, never in emails or texts.

Texts include your business name and an easy way to opt out.

Questions

What tradies ask us.

Will my customers know it's an AI?

Yes. It tells every caller it's an AI assistant at the start of the call. If they'd rather talk to a person, it takes their details and you get a text.

Do I have to change my job app?

No. We connect to what you already use. We start with Fergus, Xero and HubSpot. Using something else? Ask us on your audit call.

What if it gets something wrong?

That's why we run 20 or more test calls before go-live and check the logs daily early on. Anything it isn't sure about goes to you, and we fix and tune it as we go.

Do I need to be good with computers?

No. We do the setup remotely. You'll do one call with us, approve a few connections and say yes before it goes live.

How long am I locked in?

Three months minimum, then month to month.

What does the free audit involve?

A 20-minute call about how calls, quotes and invoices move through your business now. Afterwards you get a short written report of where work is slipping through. No obligation.

Ready to see where you're losing work?
