Can AI handle the Queensland smoke alarm rush?

Anna answers every call and text, day and night, and takes down the home details. On Growth, Emily follows up each enquiry within minutes and books the job while you’re on the tools.

Will it fill in my CCEW or COES?

No. Certificates are filled in and signed by you as the licensed electrician. Your AI staff remind you of the deadline and send the customer the copy you’ve issued.

Will it price a switchboard upgrade?

No. SAM writes the quote as you talk it through, with your price. Emily follows it up but never changes the price or offers a discount.

Can it deal with property managers and tenants?

Yes. Booking confirmations and reminders are part of the follow-up work. On Scale, Zoe answers existing customers’ “when are you coming?” calls and Mia books the next rental round.

AI staff for electricians: every call answered, every quote and invoice followed up

There were 48,279 electrical businesses in Australia at June 2025, and 44.8% were solo operators with no employees. You can’t answer a call with one hand in a switchboard. Your AI staff take the call, book the job and keep the quotes and invoices moving.

What your customers ring about

When the power’s out at one home only, the network can’t help. Ausgrid says it is legally unable to repair customer equipment past the connection point, so the next call is to an electrician. In Queensland every home needs interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms by 1 January 2027, which means a steady run of calls that each need an answer the same day.

What your AI staff do for a electrical business

Power’s out and it’s only their place
Anna answers, asks whether the neighbours have power and whether the safety switch has gone, and takes the address. If it sounds urgent she texts you on the spot.
How this job works
Smoke alarm enquiries in a rush
With the Queensland deadline close, Emily follows up each enquiry within minutes. She asks about the home, the number of bedrooms and the alarms already there, then books the job.
How this job works
Switchboard quotes done by voice
Talk SAM through the board you just looked at and the quote gets written while you talk. Emily follows up the quotes you’ve sent. The price and the scope stay with you.
How this job works
Tenants home for the inspection
Rental work falls over when nobody’s home. Booking confirmations and reminder texts go out as part of the follow-up work, so tenants and property managers know when you’re coming.
How this job works
Invoices without the chasing
SAM writes the invoice by voice and Carol sends the payment reminders you’ve approved. If a customer disputes the bill, it comes straight back to you.
How this job works
Landlords reminded when checks are due
Mia rings past customers and landlords when the next safety check or solar service is due and books it in. That’s on the Scale plan.

Pricing and scoping every quote

Smoke alarm deadlines, rental checks and repeat work for electricians

Electrical work comes round on a timetable set by law. Queensland’s smoke alarm deadline is the big one right now, and rental rules in NSW, Victoria and Queensland bring the same properties back every year or two. Anna handles the deadline rush and Mia keeps the rental rounds booked.

Queensland: every home needs interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms by 1 January 2027, meeting AS3786:2014 with no ionisation sensor
NSW rentals: every smoke alarm checked yearly and replaced within 10 years. Hardwired alarms need a licensed electrician
Victorian rentals: electrical safety check every 2 years, and every switchboard needs RCDs
Queensland rentals: all power point circuits need a safety switch, with testing recommended every 3 months
Rooftop solar: Energy Safe Victoria recommends a service every 2 years by a licensed electrician
