AI receptionist in Dunedin.

Questions Dunedin businesses ask
How quickly can we see something running?
Week three for a clickable internal demo against real data. Week six for a slice your team can actually use. We hold ourselves to those numbers because they're what stops a project drifting into "endless discovery".
Do you have proof this works for Dunedin businesses?
Direct case study: Captures the 30-40% of enquiries that used to go to voicemail. Happy to walk you through full numbers on a call.
What tools do you build AI receptionist on?
For AI receptionist we usually reach for Vapi, Twilio, Claude, Cal.com, Stripe. We're tool-agnostic at heart - we pick what your Dunedin team can actually run after we hand the build over, not what looks good on a vendor sticker.
Will it work alongside Fergus or Tradify?
We build around the tools you already run instead of replacing them. Fergus and Tradify are both job management tools built in New Zealand for trades.
Can it help with health and safety records?
It can keep them organised. A business must notify WorkSafe of notifiable events and keep those records for at least five years.
