Every missed call is a
missed opportunity

I've spent 20 years deploying AI for Australia's biggest institutions. I left to build it for the business owner who can't answer the phone.

Our story

The question that started everything

For most of my career, I was in the enterprise world — strategic lead for Commonwealth Bank at AWS, then Chief AI Officer at Iress, building global AI functions from the ground up.

The companies I was helping had hundreds of people, billion-dollar budgets, and entire teams dedicated to making AI work.

The plumber. The physio. The hair salon. The electrician. They had nothing.

What we found

It started with a simple problem. A friend who runs a salon in Sydney was losing bookings every week — not because her work wasn't great, but because she couldn't answer the phone while she was with a client.

Customers call. If nobody picks up, they call the next place. It's that simple.

But the more we talked to business owners, the bigger the problem got. A plumber missing an urgent call about a burst pipe. A dentist losing a new patient to the practice down the road. An electrician who can't coordinate his team because he's up a ladder. It wasn't just the phone — it was all the coordination, dispatch, follow-up, and admin that falls through the cracks when one person is running the whole show.

What we built

Turnless is what happens when you apply enterprise-grade AI thinking to the businesses that actually run Australia. Not a chatbot. Not voicemail. An AI that has a real conversation, knows your business, dispatches your team, and handles the follow-up — while you focus on the work in front of you.

We launched in Sydney in 2026. We're building for one type of business: the ones where the person doing the work is also the person running everything else.

What we do

Everything. Automatically.

Without the salary, sick days, or training time.

Answer every call

Turnless picks up instantly, 24/7 — even when you're with a client.

Book appointments

Checks your calendar, finds a time that works, and confirms with an SMS.

Learn your business

Knows your services, pricing, and how you like things done — and gets better over time.

Keep things reliable

We monitor everything around the clock so your phone line just works.

Sound human

Natural conversation, not a phone tree. Callers feel heard, not handled.

Set up in minutes

Paste your website, get a number, go live. No IT team needed.

Our values

What we believe

Built for the people who pick up the phone

We build for salon owners, mechanics, dentists, and tradies — people who are too busy doing great work to answer every call.

Conversation first

Phone calls are still how most customers reach local businesses. We think that deserves proper technology, not an afterthought.

Earn trust, don't assume it

Every caller your AI speaks to is someone who trusts your business. We take that seriously — in how we build, test, and improve.

Your data stays yours

We don't sell customer data, we don't train on your calls, and we store everything in Australia. Privacy isn't a feature — it's a given.
