Talkify / Concreters / Adelaide
AI receptionist for Concreters in Adelaide

Pour underway. Voicemail never gets a turn.

A pour does not pause because a phone rings, and there is no calling anybody back in the middle of finishing a Unley slab. Talkify answers everything while you are on the float, takes the area, the finish and the access, and books the site look. Across Adelaide the enquiry is in your diary before the concrete has gone off.

Three concreting calls you would have missed in Adelaide.

Adelaide is compact and easy to move around by Australian standards, which is a genuine advantage right up until a heatwave settles over the city for a week and everything becomes urgent at once. The plains run north to Gawler and south to Noarlunga with the hills behind, so the service area is long and narrow rather than sprawling. Summers are dry and hot enough that fire season changes what work can be done in the Hills, and when.

The driveway quote

A Unley homeowner wants the old driveway out and a new exposed aggregate one in. The agent takes the rough dimensions, the finish they want, whether the old one has to be broken out and carted, and whether a truck can get in, then books the look.

Answered

The slab on a programme

A builder needs a slab poured the week the boxing is done, and the weather is anybody's guess. The agent takes the site, the area, the mix and the date, notes plainly that it moves with the forecast, and puts a provisional day in your diary with a note to confirm.

Answered

The cracked path

Small work that pays well when it fits the week. The agent takes the size, the age and whether it has become a trip hazard, then books it into the gaps between the big pours around Adelaide rather than letting it ring out.

Answered

What it asks, what it texts you.

The agent takes the whole call rather than a message. Anything on the urgent list reaches your mobile as a text within seconds, with the address and the number, and the caller gets their own text confirming somebody is on it.

What it asks every caller.

Your questions, in your order. Anything you would ask standing in the doorway with a notebook.

  • Roughly how many square metres
  • The finish they want, such as broom, exposed or plain
  • Whether the old concrete has to come out
  • Access for a truck, or whether a pump is likely
  • The site address, and when they want it poured
  • Whether a builder, a homeowner or a council is involved

What reaches your mobile at once.

You set the list. These are the defaults for concreters, and every one of them texts you rather than waiting in a summary.

  • A pour date that has just moved
  • A trip hazard on a commercial or public site
  • A site with the boxing already up and waiting
  • A supplier problem on the day of a pour

The job written straight into Fergus.

On the tools the diary is not a calendar app, it is the job system. Talkify writes the enquiry, the site address and what the caller actually said into the one you run in Adelaide, so nobody types the same job in twice. Where a connector is marked early access it is built and tested, and set up with you rather than left for you to wire up.

01 Fergus The job written in against the builder or the homeowner with the site address and the area on it, and the visit booked itself once you switch that on. → 02 Simpro Commercial contacts matched on the way in, the lead written in with the customer and the site linked, quote requests raised, and work scheduled against a crew that is genuinely free. early access→ 03 Google Calendar Site looks and provisional pour dates written into the real diary, so a day that depends on the forecast is at least held rather than forgotten. →

Already on Fergus? Sign in with it.

Press the button, approve Talkify at Fergus, set a password. Talkify builds the whole account out of what Fergus already knows: your company, your team, your line already pointed at the right town, your customer list copying in behind you and Fergus already connected. It drops you on the agent builder with a reception agent half made, rather than on an empty screen.

No job software yet? You still get the diary and the customer list.

Plenty of good concreters run the week off a notebook and a phone. Nothing here asks you to open an account somewhere else first.

01 A diary we keep A calendar of your own, one column per person, that the agent checks before it offers a time and books straight into. Included with an agent rather than charged for, and if you connect Google or Outlook later the diary carries on beside it. Team Calendar→
02 An address book that fills itself Every caller is filed with their number, what they rang about and the calls before it. A returning customer is greeted by name, and you can read the history of anyone who has ever rung you without keeping a spreadsheet. Every caller
03 Leads you can actually work A quote enquiry that did not book is not lost. It lands as a lead with the name, the number, the address and what they wanted, ready to ring back or hand to whoever prices the work. Nothing dropped

Adelaide, and the 08 number you already have.

Adelaide is the driest of Australia's capital cities, and the Adelaide Hills sit in bushfire country on its eastern edge, so summer sets the terms for a great deal of the work.

Your patch.

From Gawler to Noarlunga, Port Adelaide to the Hills. You set the area you actually drive to, and anything outside it is turned down politely rather than booked and cancelled.

Adelaide

Keep the number on the van.

Your 08 landline or mobile stays exactly as it is. Forward it to the agent when you are busy, after hours, or always, and switch it back from your phone whenever you like.

Forwarding

Or take a local line.

We can provision a local 08 number for the agent and sell you the line itself, so the agent has a number of its own without you running two providers.

08 number

Everyone answers the phone. The difference is underneath.

There are a lot of AI receptionists now and they all sound much the same on a demo call. These are the six things that are hard to hear in five minutes and matter by month three, and each one is something you can check rather than something we can claim.

Nobody in the middle.

We sell the line as well as the thing that answers it. Numbers sit on our own carrier account, the routing is ours to change, and it is one supplier and one bill. Most AI answering is a layer of software on a phone account somebody else sold you, which is invisible on a good day and the whole game at three in the morning.

One supplier

Australian numbers, handled in Australia.

Calls to an Australian number are answered and handled in Australia rather than routed through somewhere else and back, and an Australian account is quoted and invoiced in Australian dollars. Most of what is sold here is an American platform wearing a local logo, and you hear the difference on the line before you ever see it on a bill.

Australia

Not eighteen months old.

Talkify has answered business calls since 2024, out of a Christchurch software studio over twelve years old that was doing voice and telephony work before Talkify had a name. Most of this market arrived in the last year and a half. That is not a criticism, but it is worth knowing when you are handing over your phone.

Since 2024

Every connector is one we wrote.

Nothing gets named on this website until the connector behind it exists and we can show it to you, which is why our list is shorter than some and why every name on it is real. Anything we have not built yet, you or your developer can, over a documented API with webhooks and Zapier.

Written by us

It rings out, not just in.

The same account and the same number also chase the quotes you sent, confirm next week's jobs, ring the overdue invoices straight out of your Xero, run phone surveys, work an on-call roster until somebody actually accepts, staff a front counter and answer the chat window on your website.

Same account

Voices from here, and a phone to ring.

Real Australian voices that say the street and suburb names properly, so a caller is not spelling their own address at a machine. Support is a phone number in your own timezone answered by the people who built the thing, and the apps for iPhone and Android are on every plan.

iOS + Android

Two more are further up this page rather than repeated here: if you run Fergus you can sign in with it and skip the setting up altogether, and if you run no software at all you still get the diary and the address book. Weighing us against somebody else? We list every provider selling into Australia on the alternatives page, including where each of them is the better pick, and there is a row by row of us against Tradies Line on the head to head.

Frequently asked.

What concreters in Adelaide ask us first. If yours isn't here, ring our live demo agent on +64 3 242 1262, it'll either answer or queue a callback from a human.

Can it deal with a job that depends on the weather?
It books the way you would: a provisional date with a note that it moves, and the caller told plainly that the forecast decides. Nothing is promised in a slot you cannot work, and if a pour shifts, the follow-up to the customer can go out by text the same day.
What does it ask about access?
Whatever you tell it to. Truck access, the gateway width, whether a pump is likely, how far the barrow run is and what is in the way are all standard questions, so you arrive with a real idea of the job instead of working it out from the kerb.
Does it work with an 08 Adelaide number?
Yes. Keep your existing 08 landline or mobile and forward it to your Talkify agent when you are busy, after hours, or always, or we provision a local 08 number for the agent and sell you the line itself. Australian numbers are answered and handled in Australia, with no hardware and nothing to install.
How fast can a concreter in Adelaide be live?
Same day. You forward your existing number, mobile or landline, to your Talkify agent, tell it about your business in the dashboard, and it starts answering. There is no hardware, no porting and no setup fee, and you can switch forwarding off again from your phone.
What does it cost?
Business agents are $129/month at the founding rate for your first 3 months, then $199, including 200 minutes of calls, with extra minutes at 10c. No setup fee, no lock-in. Compare that with a single missed job and it tends to pay for itself in the first week.
