What is an AI agent for a tradie?

An AI agent for a tradie is a small autonomous worker that picks up the phone, replies to SMS, follows up quotes and chases invoices on your behalf. It runs on your existing tools — ServiceM8, Tradify, Xero, your number — and only does what you've told it it can do.

How long does it take to build an AI agent?

Two weeks from signed quote to live agent. Day 1 we scope the workflow, Days 2–9 we build it on your real customer data, Day 10 it goes live.

How much does an AI agent cost in Australia?

Most agentyard builds land between $4,000 and $12,000 AUD for the build, plus a small monthly hosting fee (typically $80–$300/month depending on call volume). Quoted up front, fixed price.

Will the AI phone agent sound like a robot?

No. Modern voice AI sounds natural, handles Australian accents, and copes with interruptions. We let you listen to a sample of your agent's voice before it goes live.

What happens if the AI agent makes a mistake?

Every action the agent takes is logged. Anything risky — quoting a price, sending a contract, taking a deposit — goes through human approval first. You always hold the keys.

Do you only work with Sydney businesses?

We're based in Sydney but build for tradies, agents and small businesses Australia-wide — Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Newcastle, Wollongong, Gold Coast, regional. Everything is set up remotely after the first call.

Which job-management tools do you integrate with?
