Try saying

“I've got a burst pipe — can someone come Thursday arvo?”

You'll hear “Demo Plumbing & Gas” answer, quote a call-out fee, and book the job — exactly what your customers would.

Phone rings on the job.

You're under a house, on a roof, or elbow-deep in pipes. Can't answer.

Customer calls the next bloke.

95% won't leave a voicemail. They Google the next tradie and call them instead.

Evenings lost to admin.

Returning calls, sending quotes, chasing leads — instead of being with your family.

“You didn't become a tradie to sit at a desk answering phones.”

What you see on your phone

Missed calls turn into booked jobs.

Every call gets captured, structured, and dropped into your pipeline — before you climb down the ladder.

Shown with sample data. Real dashboards look like this from day one.

Three steps. Zero missed jobs.

01

Customer calls

Your number forwards to Tradee when you can't answer. Same number, no changes for the customer.

Set up once via a short code on your mobile (**61*your-tradee-number#). Works on every Australian carrier — Telstra, Optus, Vodafone. When you don't pick up within a few rings, the call forwards instantly to Tradee. Customers see your normal number in their phone.
02

AI captures the lead

Tradee greets the caller in your business name, takes their message, and transcribes it instantly.

Tradee answers in your business name with a friendly Australian voice. It asks for their name, phone, and what they need. The voicemail is transcribed in real time, then Claude AI extracts structured details — customer name, job description, suburb, urgency, and any date they mentioned.
03

Job booked automatically

Tradee's AI extracts the job details, books it in your calendar, and texts both you and the customer a confirmation.

If the caller mentions a date, Tradee auto-creates a booking in your calendar. The lead also lands in your pipeline as a new deal. You get an SMS with all the details within seconds, and the customer gets a confirmation text in your business name. All you do is show up.

Skip the Googling — set up forwarding in 30 seconds.

Pick your carrier and tap once. No carrier account login, no app, no number change.

Everything to win more jobs

Not just an answering service. A full business engine.

AI Receptionist

Answers in your business name, captures every missed call, and texts you the details in seconds.

A natural Australian AI voice answers, introduces your business, and asks the caller for their name, phone, and what they need. Every call is transcribed and analysed by Claude AI to extract structured lead data.

One-Tap Quotes

Set your rate card once. Send a customer quote via SMS in seconds straight from the dashboard.

Build quotes from your rate card with pre-set prices, or type custom items. Send via SMS with a single tap — the customer gets the quote number, total, and GST breakdown instantly.

Job Booking

Book jobs in your built-in calendar. Send SMS confirmations to customers with one tap.

Tradee auto-books jobs when a caller mentions a date. You can also create bookings manually from deals. The calendar view shows every upcoming job colour-coded by status.

Lead Pipeline

Track every lead from first call to completed job. Know where your work comes from.

Kanban board with Lead → Qualified → Quoted → Won/Lost stages. Drag cards between stages, filter by source (inbound call, website, referral), and see which channels bring your best work.

Online Booking Page

Your own booking URL. Customers see your services, reviews, and book online 24/7.

Every business gets a public page at tradee.io/book/your-slug. Show off your services, rate card, reviews, and let customers request bookings online — no phone call needed.

Invoicing & Payments

Generate invoices from jobs. Send payment links via SMS. Get paid same day.

Create invoices from quotes or scratch. Send via SMS with a secure Stripe payment link. Customers pay by card in under a minute. Tradee marks it paid automatically via webhook.

Job Overflow Network

Fully booked? Pass jobs to nearby tradies and earn a 10% referral fee.

Opt into the Tradee network and offer overflow jobs to other tradies in your area. When they complete the job, you earn a referral fee. Works both ways — fill empty days with referrals from others.

Customer Memory

AI remembers every customer — their address, job history, and preferences.

Customer profiles track every interaction — past jobs, total spent, tags (VIP, regular), suburb, property type. When a returning customer calls, the AI already knows them.
Soon

Outbound Marketing

Win back old customers, push seasonal offers, chase unpaid quotes via SMS campaigns.

Pick a template (Win-back, Seasonal, Review Request, Maintenance Reminder, Referral, Follow-up), paste in customer numbers, and launch. Tradee sends each SMS via Twilio and tracks delivery.
Soon

Smart Pricing

See how your prices compare to your area and which services have the highest acceptance.

Tradee tracks every quote you send and whether it's accepted. The insights page shows your acceptance rate by service and compares your prices to benchmarks from other tradies in your area.
Soon

Your Voice

Clone your voice so customers hear you, not a robot. Available on Boss plan.

Upload a 30-60 second recording and Tradee clones your voice. The AI receptionist will then answer calls sounding exactly like you — customers will swear it's really you.

Google Reviews

Auto-text happy customers asking for a review. More reviews = more leads from Google.

After a completed job, tap Request Review on the customer's profile. Tradee sends a personalised SMS thanking them and linking to your Google Business Profile for a review.

A business platform, not just a phone bot

Other AI receptionists answer calls. Tradee runs your entire business from first ring to final payment.

Call → Lead → Quote → Job → Invoice → Paid

The full lifecycle in one place. No spreadsheets, no switching between apps. Every step is tracked automatically.

AI that learns your business

Remembers every customer, their property, past jobs, and preferences. The longer you use it, the smarter it gets.

The tradie network

Too busy? Pass jobs to other tradies on Tradee and earn a referral fee. Too quiet? Pick up overflow from the network.

Get paid on the spot

Send an invoice and payment link via SMS the moment the job's done. No chasing, no late payments.

Founder

Andrew Payne

“I watched my old man miss quotes worth tens of thousands because he was up a ladder with no free hand. Tradee exists so no Aussie tradie loses another job to a missed call.”

Built in Sydney by Andrew Payne. Chatting directly with every founding tradie — email andrew@tradee.io or call 04 111 999 04 and I'll pick up (or Tradee will, if I'm on another call).

Got questions?

How does call forwarding work?
You set up conditional call forwarding on your mobile — if you don't answer within a few rings, the call forwards to your Tradee number. No app needed, same number for customers. Works on every Australian network. Takes 2 minutes.
Will customers know it's AI?
Most won't. Tradee answers in your business name, uses natural Australian speech, and handles conversations the way you would. On Boss plan, clone your own voice for a seamless experience.
Can I set my own prices for quotes?
You set your rate card with your prices for common jobs — call-out fees, hourly rates, fixed-price services. AI uses your prices to give estimates on the spot. Full control, always.
What trades does this work for?
Any trade that takes phone bookings: plumbers, sparkies, chippies, painters, landscapers, HVAC techs, locksmiths, pest control, cleaners — if customers call you for a job, it works.
Can I try it free?
Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial, no credit card required. Set it up in minutes and see how many leads you catch that you'd normally miss.
