our word for it
TRY IT
  • Costed against the traditional way
  • Accounts in your name
  • Real people, real support

Example: enquiries are logged, quotes are drafted from your price list, follow-ups come due, and anything that needs a decision waits for your OK.

Before and after

From scattered to connected.

Most owners we talk to are not short of work. They are short of one place where the work lives. Here is the difference a properly configured system from Kickstart AI Pty Ltd makes.

  • Working and tested today in the Enquiry-to-Job system, the first part of your system from Kickstart AI Pty Ltd
  • Demonstration only shown with made-up data
  • Optional, separately priced
  • Future capabilities individual items, not for sale yet

Before

The business runs on memory, goodwill and long evenings.

  • Missed opportunities
  • Scattered enquiries
  • Repetitive administration
  • Delayed quotes
  • Forgotten follow-ups
  • Disconnected systems

After a properly configured system from Kickstart AI Pty Ltd

One connected system, with you still making the decisions.

  1. Enquiries captured in one placeWorking and tested today
  2. Quotes prepared for your approvalWorking and tested today
  3. Follow-ups organisedWorking and tested today
  4. Jobs tracked from enquiry to finishWorking and tested today
  5. Clear responsibilities, with staff rolesWorking and tested today
  6. The pipeline at a glance, with what needs attentionWorking and tested today
  7. A system that can evolve as the business growsOptional, separately priced

The Enquiry-to-Job system is the first tool we set up. Anything beyond it is scoped with you and priced separately, and nothing marked as a future capability is for sale today.

Demonstration only

See what your business could become.

Step through one enquiry at a made-up plumbing business, from the first message to the owner's results. Every name, price and number here is invented.

Demonstration only. Not a customer result, not a forecast and not a promise. Real quotes and messages only go out when you approve them.

What you can use today is the Enquiry-to-Job system. The demonstration shows it with made-up data so you can see the idea, and your own set-up is agreed with you before any work starts.

Tell us what is eating your time and we will tell you what we would build first.

One roadmap

One system, built in order.

Your business system comes first, then the website and content around it if you want them, then the AI services we are still building. Each stage is labelled so you know exactly what you can buy today.

Stage 1: your business system

Enquiry-to-Job

Working and tested today
  • Enquiries in one place
  • Quote drafts for your approval
  • Follow-ups organised
  • A jobs pipeline
  • Staff roles

This is what the setup price on this page covers: $6,500 at the launch price for our first ten clients, $9,500 after that. See Pricing for the full terms.

Stage 2: your website and content

Connected website and content help

Optional, separately priced
  • A business website connected to your system
  • Content and social media help

Separately scoped and priced. Not included in the Enquiry-to-Job setup price.

Stage 3: AI services still to come

Planned, not available

Future capability
  • AI voice
  • Social-media automation
  • Automatic payments
  • Automatic website generation

Not for sale and not promised for any date. We will tell you when something is ready and tested.

Website work is outside the Enquiry-to-Job setup. If you want a website, we scope it with you and give you its own price before any work starts.

See what changes

Your business.
Minus the mess.

Different businesses, different headaches. Same idea: give the repetitive work one place to live, and a system that helps keep it moving.

An interactive illustration, not a live customer system. At launch, the first tool for trades is Enquiry-to-Job: enquiries logged, quotes drafted from your price list, follow-ups due and jobs tracked to won or lost. Drafting texts for you, and the other kinds of business shown here, are not part of it yet. Your first tool and its scope are agreed together before the build starts.

Book a 15-minute call

Tell us what's eating your time. We'll tell you what we'd build first.

Made for the business you run

Not one size.
Your size.

Different industries, different workflows. We start with the admin that keeps stealing your day. At launch we build Enquiry-to-Job for trades and field teams; the other examples are illustrations, not part of the launch offer.

Trades and field teams

Know what's waiting on you.

Quotes to chase, jobs in progress, enquiries needing a reply.

Makers and studios

Get every order in line.

Custom requests, artwork approvals, production and delivery.

Client services

Less chasing. More serving.

Enquiries, appointments, client status and next steps together.

Shops and online orders

The details, under control.

Orders to fulfil and customers to update, all in one list.

The 14-day target

We build it.
You use it.

No new technical department. No course to finish. A clear start, a working result and a handover you can watch again.

  1. Day 0 01

    Show us the mess.

    On a short call you tell us what's wasting your time. We agree what the first tool will do before the build starts.

  2. Days 1 to 14 02

    We build the base.

    We set up your AI foundation and the agreed first working tool, on accounts held in your name from day one.

  3. Day 14 and beyond 03

    You take the keys.

    A recorded handover, a check-in on day 7 of using it, and 30 days of support after delivery.

The point isn't to sell you software.It's to hand you a tool you'll actually use.

Practical, not complicated

You didn't start a business to chase spreadsheets.

Neither did we. We connect the foundations, build one useful tool around the way you actually work, and show you how to use it. You own the accounts. We don't disappear after launch.

Our mission

Give owners
their time back.

Justin founded Kickstart AI Pty Ltd. Between them, Justin and Rachael have built and run a roofing company, a sports prediction app and an online store, and we put that experience to work in your business. You deal with us directly, no account managers.

You started your business to do the work you're good at, not to chase paperwork at night. We set up the system that keeps your admin moving, so you can get back to the work, and to your life.

  • No enquiry left waitingWebsite enquiries logged while you're on a job, and the rest added by you, in one list.
  • Your evenings backEnquiries logged, quotes drafted and follow-ups lined up during the day, not at 9pm.
  • Room to growTake on more work without hiring someone just to keep up with the admin.
  • A business you ownYour accounts, your data, your keys. Nothing held hostage.

stay yours.

We're here to set up the foundation, not to make you depend on us forever.

Costs you can see.Roughly $50 to $150 a month in third-party tools after setup, billed directly to you. No markup.

Pricing

About half the cost
of the old way.

Most small businesses fix this by hiring an admin and paying to have a system built. On the estimates below, we set up the system and, on Run, handle your enquiry and quote admin, for about half, and less again for our first ten clients. And your system takes the repetitive steps, so you can get time back as well as money.

The traditional way, year one

  • A part-time office admin, 3 days a week, with super$31,600 to $49,700
  • A simple custom system, built from scratch$15,000 to $40,000
Year one$46,600 to $89,700

With Kickstart AI Pty Ltd, year one

  • Setup: your system, built and handed over, targeted 14 days from when everything we need is in place$9,500
  • Run: we run the admin with you, 12 months at $1,950$23,400
  • Your own tool accounts, about $50 to $150 a month, no markup$600 to $1,800
Year one$33,500 to $34,700

Launch price, first ten clients: $28,520 to $29,720 in year one. Setup at $6,500, and your first three months of Run at $1,290.

Year one with us is about half the middle of the traditional range (49% to 51%): 72% to 74% at its cheapest end, 37% to 39% at its top. You get a licence to use the system; Kickstart AI Pty Ltd keeps ownership of the software; your data, accounts and settings are yours. The solid part of the traditional bar is its cheapest end; the striped part runs to its top. How we worked this out

Money saved in year one$11,900 to $56,200less than the traditional way, from the costs above. At launch price, $16,880 to $61,180 less.

The deal

Your agreed first tool is targeted for day 14, on the conditions set out below. If it is not working by then, we keep working at no additional charge until it is.

The scope and first tool are agreed, and the setup fee is paid in full, before the build starts. Day 14 counts from the start date we confirm in writing, once we have your signed agreement, payment, accounts and information.

Instead of paying $15,000 to $40,000 to have a simple system built from scratch, then working out how to run it yourself.

Book a 15-minute call
StepWe doYou do

Before we startCall and scope

Listen first. Then send you a plain-English Scope of Works: your first tool, what's in, what's out, and how day 14 is counted.

Tell us what eats your week. Approve the scope and pay 100% of the setup fee upfront, before work starts.

Before day 1Your accounts

Set up your AI foundation: database, hosting and your AI assistant, all connected.

Create the accounts we list, in your name, with us on a screen-share. Give us access.

Days 2 to 10The build

Build your first tool around how you really work: your services, prices and templates. Set up your stages and hours, and connect your website form where it allows. Write your prompt library.

Answer our questions, send us examples, and try it at a quick check-in.

Days 11 to 14Real work, then handover

Watch it run on your real jobs, fix and fine-tune it, then give you a recorded handover.

Put real work through it and tell us what feels wrong.

After handoverMake it stick

Check in on day 7 of using it, and support you for 30 days.

Use it every day. Then pick a plan below, or run it yourself.

Your Enquiry-to-Job system is targeted to be ready within 14 days of your signed scope, cleared payment, confirmed requirements and access to the necessary accounts. We confirm the start date in writing. Customer delays, third-party dependencies and approved scope changes may affect delivery.

Straight answers

Good
questions.

Because your money deserves a proper explanation.

We keep the screens plain: your enquiries, quotes and jobs, and what’s waiting on your OK. The handover session is recorded, and the day 7 check-in exists precisely so you don't stall in week one.
The tools themselves have small monthly subscriptions, roughly $50 to $150 a month depending on how much you use them, billed directly to you. No middleman, no markup, no lock-in contracts: you can cancel those tool accounts whenever you like. A plan with us is optional, month to month on 30 days' notice: run it yourself, have us look after it (Care, $690 a month), or have us run the admin too (Run, $1,950 a month).
A chatbot answers questions. A foundation runs your business: your enquiries, quotes and jobs in one system, set up around the way you work, plus an AI assistant account for your own writing and questions. That setup is what you’re paying us to build.
Everything keeps working, in your accounts. You choose what happens next: run it yourself with nothing more to pay us, have us look after it on Care ($690 a month), or have us run the admin too on Run ($1,950 a month). Plans are month to month with 30 days' notice.
We compare with what a small team would otherwise pay in year one for the same result. A part-time office admin three days a week costs $31,600 to $49,700 a year: that's Payscale's 2026 range of $47,000 to $74,000 for a full-time office administrator, at 60%, plus the 12% super guarantee. A simple custom system, like a customer database with booking and scheduling, costs $15,000 to $40,000 to build. That's $46,600 to $89,700. Job-management software (about $45 to $75 per user a month) is an alternative to a custom system, so it is not added on top. Setup and a year of Run with us comes to $33,500 to $34,700, including your own tool accounts. On your call we redo the sum with your own numbers.
No. Plans are month to month: change your plan or cancel with 30 days' notice.
Our first ten clients. Setup is $6,500 instead of $9,500, and your first three months of Care or Run are about a third off. After that your plan moves to its normal price, which we put in writing before you start.
