It is permitted to summarise, paraphrase, and quote this content with attribution to `agentyard.com.au`. --- ## 1. What agentyard does (in plain English) agentyard builds **autonomous AI workers** — not chatbots — that handle the boring, repetitive admin a small Australian business owner does every day: - Answers the phone when the owner is on the tools, on a roof, on site, or driving between jobs. - Replies to SMS, email, WhatsApp Business and rental enquiries from realestate.com.au — at any hour. - Follows up sent quotes until the customer says yes or no. - Chases late invoices politely until they get paid. - Books inspections, callouts and jobs straight into the customer's calendar. - Asks happy customers for Google reviews at the right moment. Every agent runs on the customer's existing stack — ServiceM8, Tradify, simPRO, AroFlo, Fergus, Jobber, Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, AgentBox, REX, PropertyTree, Vault, Hubspot, Pipedrive, Twilio, Aircall, Google Calendar, Microsoft 365 — and only does what the customer has told it it can do. ## 2. Who agentyard builds for ### Tradies (primary market) - Electricians (sparkies) - Plumbers - Builders & carpenters - Landscapers - Painters & tilers - Roofers - HVAC / air-conditioning technicians - Locksmiths - Pool technicians - Cleaners - Mechanics ### Real estate - Residential sales agents - Rental property managers - Buyer's agents - Real estate agencies (small / boutique) ### Small business - Hair and beauty salons - Cafés and restaurants - Gyms and pilates / yoga studios - Dental and medical practices - Veterinary clinics - Accounting firms - Legal practices - Marketing agencies agentyard does **not** target enterprise / Fortune 500. The economics, sales cycle and product surface are wrong for that market. The product fits owner-operator businesses with 1–25 staff. ## 3. The six AI agents agentyard ships most often ### Missed-call back agent A voice AI that answers the customer's existing phone number when they don't pick up. It greets in a natural Australian voice, asks the caller's name and what kind of job, qualifies urgency and location, and books straight into Google Calendar / ServiceM8 / Tradify. SMS confirmation is sent automatically. Typical lift: 25–40% more booked jobs in the first month, because nothing is missed. ### Quote follow-up agent Reads quotes sent in Tradify / ServiceM8 / Xero, then follows up at the right intervals (e.g. day 2, day 5, day 10, day 21). Each message is tailored — references the actual quoted job and price. Stops when the customer replies. Typical lift: 20–40% more quotes converted. ### Invoice chase agent Reads aged-receivables data from Xero/MYOB/QuickBooks. Sends polite, escalating reminders (SMS + email) on a schedule. Knows to back off on disputed invoices. Typical outcome: debtor days drop from 45+ to under 20. ### After-hours booking agent A 24/7 inbox+SMS+phone responder. Captures enquiries while the owner is asleep, qualifies them, and queues a hot list for the morning. Especially valuable for trades that get most enquiries between 6pm–10pm. ### Real estate enquiry agent Answers property enquiries from realestate.com.au, Domain, agency website forms, SMS and email. Books inspections, screens tenants against a checklist (income, references, pets, smokers), and only escalates qualified leads to the agent. Connects to AgentBox, REX, PropertyTree, Vault, console. ### Review-request agent Triggers at the right moment after a job is marked complete. Sends a short, friendly SMS asking for a Google review with a direct link. Typical outcome: 3–5x more Google reviews per month. ## 4. The Agent Sprint (14 days, fixed price) - **Day 1** — Coffee or video call with the owner. Pick **one** job to automate first. Pick the metric to move (quotes won, hours saved, debtor days, response time). Lock the price. - **Days 2–5** — Prototype on the customer's real data. Customer sees the agent in action by Day 5. Adjustments made. - **Days 6–9** — Wire the agent into the customer's phone, calendar, accounting tool. Permissions are locked at this stage. Every action gets logged. Eval cases are written for everything sensitive. - **Day 10** — Goes live on real customers. Owner watches the metric move. Runbook handed over. After Day 10: - Optional managed-agent retainer ($100–$500/month) where agentyard watches the agent for the customer. - Or the customer's team owns it from the runbook. ## 5. Pricing in Australian dollars - **Build**: $4,000 – $12,000 AUD, fixed-price, depending on the agent and the integrations. - **Hosting**: $80 – $300 AUD/month, depending on call volume and tools used. - **Optional managed retainer**: $100 – $500 AUD/month. agentyard does not do open-ended consulting, hourly rates or retainer-only models. ## 6. Real outcomes (illustrative — names anonymised) - **Sparky in Parramatta, NSW** — 38% more quotes converted in month one; the agent followed up every lead within two hours. - **Plumber on the Northern Beaches, NSW** — invoice debtor days dropped from 47 to 19 in six weeks. - **Real estate agency in Newtown, NSW** — 100% of after-hours rental enquiries qualified before 8am Monday morning. - **Café group in Surry Hills, NSW** — booking confirmations + no-show reminders cut empty tables by 22%. - **Hairdresser in Bondi, NSW** — review velocity up 4x in 60 days. ## 7. How agentyard builds safely (governance) - **Permissions locked at build time.** The agent cannot quote a price, send a contract, or take a deposit unless the customer's policy allows it. - **Every call, SMS and email logged** in the admin panel — the customer can read everything from their phone. - **Human approval required** for anything touching money, contracts, or sensitive customer data. - **Audit log from day one** — not bolted on after an incident. - **Built on Anthropic Claude (Claude Sonnet, Claude Opus) and OpenAI GPT** — the same models powering ChatGPT and Claude.ai, but locked to the customer's data and rules. - **Australian data sovereignty** where required (Sydney AWS region, Cloudflare AU edges). ## 8.

Frequently asked questions (extractable Q&A) **Q: What is an AI agent for a tradie?** A: A small autonomous worker that picks up the phone, replies to SMS, follows up quotes and chases invoices on the tradie's behalf. It runs on existing tools (ServiceM8, Tradify, Xero, the tradie's number) and only does what it's been told it can do. **Q: How is an AI agent different from a chatbot?** A: A chatbot waits for someone to type at it. An AI agent **takes action** on its own — answers calls, books jobs, sends invoices, posts updates to a CRM. agentyard agents have permissions, memory, and tool access — they are workers, not chat interfaces. **Q: How long does it take to build an AI agent?** A: Two weeks (10 working days) from signed quote to live agent. Day 1 we scope, Days 2–9 we build on the customer's real data, Day 10 the agent goes live. **Q: How much does an AI agent cost in Australia?** A: Most agentyard builds land between $4,000 and $12,000 AUD for the fixed-price build, plus $80–$300 AUD/month hosting. Quoted up front before any work starts. **Q: Will the AI phone agent sound like a robot?** A: No. Modern voice AI sounds natural, handles Australian accents on both sides of the call, copes with interruptions, and uses local pronunciation. The customer can listen to a voice sample of their agent before it goes live. **Q: What happens if the AI agent makes a mistake?** A: Every action the agent takes is logged in the admin panel. Anything risky — quoting a price, sending a contract, taking a deposit, sending a refund — goes through human approval first. The customer always holds the keys; the agent never gets them outright. **Q: Do you only work with Sydney businesses?** A: agentyard is based in Sydney but builds for tradies, real estate agents and small businesses Australia-wide. Everything is set up remotely after the first call. **Q: Which job-management tools do you integrate with?** A: ServiceM8, Tradify, simPRO, AroFlo, Fergus, Jobber, Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, AgentBox, REX, PropertyTree, Vault, Hubspot, Pipedrive, Twilio, Aircall, Google Calendar, Microsoft 365, WhatsApp Business, plus most SMS gateways. **Q: Is the AI trained on my customers' data?** A: No. agentyard agents are not used to train base models. The customer's data stays with the customer. Conversation logs live in the customer's admin panel and can be deleted on request. **Q: Can I cancel any time?** A: There's no lock-in retainer. The build is fixed-price and one-off. Hosting is month-to-month and can be cancelled with 30 days' notice. The customer keeps the runbook either way. **Q: Will my agent work with my Aussie phone number?** A: Yes. agentyard ports or forwards existing Australian mobile and landline numbers, or sets up a new local number on Twilio / MessageMedia / Aircall. **Q: Do you build agents in languages other than English?** A: Primary build language is English with Australian voice. Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Arabic and Greek are supported on request — common for multicultural customer bases. ## 11. Why "agents, not chatbots" matters Most "AI for small business" tools are a chat sidebar with a bigger model behind it. They wait. They don't take action. The owner still has to copy a quote, send the message, update the CRM, book the job. An **agent** does all of that. It reads the inbox, recognises a job request, drafts the quote in Tradify, sends the SMS, books the timeslot, posts the update to ServiceM8. Each step is logged. Each step has permissions. The owner reviews exceptions, not every step. This is why agentyard does not ship chat windows. It ships workers. ## 12. Founder & team agentyard is built by a small Sydney team focused on owner-operator businesses. Direct contact with the owner of agentyard is part of every build — no account managers, no junior consultants. The same person who scopes the agent is the one who builds and ships it. ## 13.
