Giday

Giday is an AI phone receptionist made in Australia for small businesses that can't always get to the phone: tradies on the tools, salons in the middle of an appointment, clinics with a full waiting room, and owners running everything on their own.

When a call comes in, Giday picks up in the business's own name with a natural Australian voice, at any hour. It works out what the caller needs and passes every message to the owner, with the caller's number attached. From the Starter plan it also offers a real time from the calendar, books the job while the caller is still on the line and texts the customer to confirm it, and a caller who wants a person can be put through to the owner. On the Busy plan and up it can quote from the business's own price list.

Honesty is built in. Every call opens on a recorded line, and if anyone asks whether they are speaking to a person, the receptionist tells them straight away that it is an AI receptionist.

Getting started takes minutes. Businesses keep their existing number and divert the calls they miss, using one code that can be switched off at any time. Teams of up to 20 people can be added, each with their own phone number for put-through and their own messages. Plans start at $19 a month including GST, month to month, with no setup fee and a free week to try it. Nothing is charged unless the business chooses to keep it.
