Up the coast. Sydney businesses, same map, same rig. One call finds where the hours go, a fixed price takes the first one off your plate, and the phone's being answered in an Australian voice inside a fortnight. We're in Melbourne; the work is in your tools.
The work's in your tools, not in the room.
An AI consultancy that needs to be in your office is selling you the meeting. The thing that saves the hours is a receptionist on your number, an inbox that sorts itself and an invoice that goes out the day the job's done, and all of that gets built on a call and lives in the accounts you already have.
So a Sydney business gets exactly what a Melbourne one does: a one-page map of where the hours go, a fixed price to take the first one, and a build that's live inside a fortnight. The consulting is the map. The agency is the rig. We're up a few times a year, and the coffee's on us.
What Sydney businesses start with.
The phone
Trades and clinics first. Every call answered, booked, confirmed by text, while you're on the tools or in the water. The receptionist.
The money
Invoices out the day the job's done, chased when they're late, reconciled in Xero. The invoicing.
The van
Everything a tradie's office does, without the office. AI for tradies.
The inbox
Read, sorted, answered where it can be. Supplier delays move the calendar on their own.
The roster
Someone calls in sick at 6am, the shift's covered by 6:15 and you find out at 7.
The week
One page on Friday: what came in, what went out, who's overdue, what needs you. The whole picture.
How to start.
Book the call. Forty minutes on the phone. We walk through how a job moves from first call to money in the bank, and mark where a person is retyping, chasing or waiting. Inside a week you have the map, priced.
Say yes to the first thing on it and it's running inside a fortnight. Then we keep it running and add the next thing when you're ready. If you're in Melbourne instead, that one's home water.
Questions people ask.
Are you based in Sydney?
Melbourne, and we work with businesses in Sydney over the phone and inside your tools, which is where the work happens anyway. We're up a few times a year; if a coffee matters to you, we'll line one up.
Does it matter that you're not local?
For this, no. The receptionist answers in an Australian voice and knows your suburbs and your hours. The invoices go out from your Xero. The map is built from a call. What matters is that someone builds it and keeps it running, and we do both.
What does an AI consultancy in Sydney cost?
A fixed price for the map and a fixed monthly price for anything we build, agreed before we start. No hourly billing, and the map's price comes off the first month if you go ahead.
Which Sydney businesses is this for?
Ones with a phone that rings and invoices to send. Trades from Liverpool to Hornsby, clinics, cafes, studios, agencies, cleaners. One to fifty people, and an owner who's doing the admin at night.
Which tools does it work with?
Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, ServiceM8, Tradify, Simpro, Cliniko, Fresha, Square, Shopify, HubSpot, most phone systems and your actual phone number. If you use something odd, ask.
How fast can something be running?
The map inside a week of the first call. The first build, usually the phone, live inside a fortnight after that. Time zones aren't a problem; we're on the same one.
