Answering now
Good morning, Chic Cuts. I'm Sarah, the AI office manager. How can I help?
Hi, I'd like a cut and colour this week.
Lovely. Can I grab your name and best number? And do you usually see Jess, Sam or Alex?
Emma Clarke, 0412 345 678. Jess please.
Thanks, Emma. I'll put Jess down as your preferred stylist. A cut and colour is about $185 and takes around two hours. Thursday at 10:30 is free. Shall I book it?
Yes please!

Meet Sarah
Sarah is the AI office manager behind WorkRoute. She answers 24/7 with an Australian voice, so the first voice your customers hear sounds like part of your business.
Who it's for
If your hands are busy and the phone rings out, Sarah picks up. These businesses are already set up with the right questions and prices.
Real prices from your lawn-size rates and a day's run planned around real driving time. Landscaping projects get a site visit booked for a quote.

The WorkRoute difference
Sarah uses the prices you set, plus the details she collects on the call, to give the caller a real price before they hang up. Then she checks your diary and books a time.
Real price on the call
Always explained as an estimate, and never a number you didn't set.
Recognises returning clients
Brings up their record and their usual service, so regulars aren't asked everything again.
Checks real availability
Not just an empty slot. Your diary, your hours and, for tradies, real driving time.
Texts a confirmation
Your client gets the details, and you get a notification.
How it works
Add your services, prices and working hours in a simple form. It takes about three minutes and needs no technical skills.
Your business gets its own phone number, and Sarah answers it 24/7 with an Australian voice.
You get a notification, and your client gets a confirmation text. You just turn up and do the work.
Made for how you work
Whether you go to the customer or they come to you, WorkRoute fits the day.

Questions
No, Sarah is an AI, and she says so if anyone asks. She works 24/7 with an Australian voice, and she never makes up a price or a promise.
Yes, using the prices you enter during setup. She always explains that it's an estimate, and she only ever states a number that comes from your own price list.
She flags it for you as low, medium or high priority, and you get a notification for anything urgent. A complaint or a request to speak to a person always comes to you.
Not yet. WorkRoute has its own diary, and Sarah books straight into it. Tell us what you use and we'll take it on board.
Not yet. A salon says how many people can work at once, and clients can ask for a preferred stylist. Separate calendars for each person are something we're looking at.
No. Setup is a simple form: your services, your prices and your working hours.
Yes. You can download your full customer list at any time. There's no lock-in.
Probably. Tell Steve what you do and he'll set it up for you.
