The AI that calls tradies for you
You say what you need. Tia phones local Tauranga tradies, gets you real prices and times where she can, and books it — or tells you straight if no one's about. You never touch the phone.

What it is
SortedAI is an AI phone assistant named Tia who rings around local tradies for you. Instead of you sitting on hold, redialling numbers, and leaving voicemails that never get returned, you tell Tia the job in plain English and she makes the calls. She introduces herself as an AI on every call, asks who can do it, what it'll cost, and when they're free — then comes back with the real answers she got so you can pick one and get it booked. She covers Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty, and she's built on one simple rule: she tells you exactly what she found, even when the answer is “no luck this time”.
How it works
Tell Tia the job
Say it like you'd text a mate — “leaking tap in Papamoa”, “need a sparky to add a powerpoint”, “fence panel down after the wind”. Any trade, any local job.
Tia rings around
Tia phones local tradies one by one and tells each of them, right at the start, that she's an AI assistant calling for a customer. She asks who can do it, roughly what it costs, and when they're free.
You pick, she books
She comes back with the real prices and times she actually got — laid out side by side. You choose the one you like and Tia books it. You pay the tradie direct for the job; nothing's locked in until you say yes.
Why it's different
Not a directory of numbers
You're not handed a list of tradies to ring yourself. Tia does the actual dialling — the redials, the “sorry, can you call back”, the ones that go to voicemail. That's the whole point.
Not a quote form into the void
No web form that emails five businesses and leaves you waiting days for a reply that never comes. Tia talks to real people on the phone and brings back real answers.
You never touch the phone
She can't promise someone's free — but she actually makes the calls and tells you straight what she found, even if it's “no luck this time”. Either way, you didn't spend your afternoon on hold.
Honest pricing
Your first ring-around is free — no card needed. After that it's about $1 each time Tia rings around, whether or not you end up booking (you're paying for the calls Tia makes, not a guaranteed result). You pay the tradie directly for the job. No subscription, no lock-in.
Straight answers
Is Tia a real person?
No — Tia is an AI voice assistant. She phones tradies for you, and she tells every business she calls that she's an AI, right at the start of the call. No pretending, no pressure on the tradie.
What does it cost?
Your first ring-around is free, no card needed. After that it's about $1 each time Tia rings around — whether or not you book, and whether she comes back with a quote or a straight “no luck this time”. You're paying for the ring-around itself, not a guaranteed result. There's no subscription and no lock-in, and you pay the tradie directly for the actual job.
Which trades can she call?
Plumbers, electricians, builders, handymen, and most local trade jobs around Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty. If it's a business you'd normally ring yourself, Tia can usually ring it for you.
What if no one's free?
Tia can't promise she'll find someone available — no honest service can. What she does promise is that she'll actually make the calls and tell you straight what she found, even when that's “no luck this time”. You're never left wondering.
What areas do you cover?
Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty — Papamoa, Mount Maunganui, Bethlehem, Greerton, Te Puke, and the surrounds. We're expanding across NZ soon, but right now Tia calls local tradies in the Bay.
