Try it on your numberHear a sample call

One closed quote pays for the year.

Free for 30 days. No credit card.

Your phone is your sales channel. And it's leaking.

On a roof.

Two missed calls. Voicemail picks up. The first caller leaves a number; the second hangs up.

After hours.

A burst pipe, 9pm Sunday. Your customer rings the next plumber on Google.

Quote sent Tuesday.

It's now Friday. They didn't reply. You forgot to chase. The job goes cold.

It's an AI office. Not an AI receptionist.

It answers when you can't, books when it should, follows up when you forget — and writes everything back to ServiceM8 so you don't repeat yourself.

1

Connect ServiceM8

One click. We pull your customers, services, jobs, and staff so the AI knows your business from the first call.

2

Pick your number

Get a new Australian number in 30 seconds, or forward your existing line. Your call.

3

Tune and test

Name your AI, pick a voice, make a test call. The AI runs through a real-feeling scenario and we tell you what to adjust.

Five more steps after that — confirming hours, picking when the AI takes calls, signing off the disclosure script. All explained in the onboarding guide.

When something goes wrong, you stay in control.

Pause it in five seconds. Approve every booking for the first 30 days. Compliance built in, not retrofitted.

Instant kill switch.

Master toggle. SMS keyword from your phone. Per-channel, per-workflow, scheduled blackout. You're never locked in.

Approval mode for the first 30 days.

Every booking the AI proposes comes to you as an SMS first. You tap yes or no. After 30 days and 20+ approved bookings, you graduate to direct booking — or stay in approval mode forever if you prefer.

Mandatory disclosure on every call.

"Hi, you've reached [your business] — this is [Sarah], the AI assistant. Calls are recorded for our records." Verbatim. Every call. No exceptions.

Audit log for every AI decision.

Every booking, transfer, message — logged with the prompt version and the conversation it came from.

DNCR check on every outbound call.

We check the Do Not Call Register before dialling — every time, not on a sample.

Outbound time-of-day rules.

Mon–Fri 9am–8pm, Sat 9am–5pm, no Sundays. In your customer's timezone, not ours.

Encrypted recordings.

Stored encrypted, retention you control, deletable on customer request (APP 13).

When the AI isn't sure, it warm-transfers to you with the context — not "press 1 for sales", but a real handoff with a brief on where the conversation got to.

One missed call pays for the month.

30 days free, no card. After that, two plans designed around how busy your phone gets. First 50 sign-ups lock in founder pricing for the life of their account.

Questions you should be asking.

What if it gets it wrong?
The AI starts in Approval Required mode for the first 30 days. Every booking it proposes comes to you as an SMS — you tap yes or no before it confirms anything to the customer. If you reject, it rings the customer back to reschedule. After 30 days (and 20+ approved bookings, low rejection rate, no quality issues), you graduate to Monitored mode where it books directly. You can also pause it instantly any time.
Will it sound like a robot?
You pick from four Australian voices. You write your AI's persona prompt — formal, casual, no-nonsense, however you want it. You set banned phrases (no "great question," no "absolutely") and preferred phrases (yeah, no worries, too easy). Listen to a sample call before you sign up.
Does it work with my existing phone number?
Yes. Two paths: forward your existing number to a voice-office Twilio number (full forward, or only when you don't pick up — carrier codes provided for Telstra, Optus, Vodafone, AAPT/TPG), or get a new Australian number from us and use it on Google/business cards going forward. Number porting is coming, not v1.
What if I want to turn it off?
Five ways:
  • Master toggle in the dashboard (effects in <5 seconds)
  • SMS the word PAUSE to your control number from your mobile
  • Per-channel toggles (voice on, SMS off, etc.)
  • Scheduled blackouts (off Sundays, off lunch 12–1)
  • Auto-pause if quality regresses (we pause ourselves if 3 consecutive calls flag high-severity)

Currently onboarding our first 50 founding customers across plumbing, electrical, HVAC and locksmith. Founder pricing locks in for the life of your account.
