Dog groomers are some of the most efficient operators in New Zealand – which means the easy wins from voice AI agents are usually already taken. The brief we accept is the one focused on the workflow you've tried to fix twice and given up on.

Questions
FAQ
How fast could we have voice AI agents in production?
Eight to ten weeks for most dog groomers. Faster if your data is in good shape and slower if we're untangling a legacy integration first. We'll give you a realistic number on the scoping call rather than the optimistic one.
What does voice AI agents cost for a dog groomer?
Pilots start from a fixed scope priced to land a measurable result inside 6 weeks. Pricing depends on data volume, integration complexity, and whether you need us on managed services afterwards. We'll quote precisely after a 30-minute scoping call.
Has this actually shipped for a real dog groomer?
Yes. 42% of after-hours calls now booked without human input. We'll share comparable engagements on the call.
What if our dog groomer doesn't have any data ready?
Most don't. Getting the data into shape – ingestion, cleaning, the lightweight contracts you need before any model is useful – is part of the engagement. For voice AI agents specifically, we typically run that work on Vapi, Retell, Twilio, OpenAI Realtime and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
