Book a time.
Bludge checks your calendar and books a time that suits the caller.
Your AI receptionist. More business. Fewer interruptions.
Bludge answers calls, follows up leads and books appointments while you get on with your work.
Bludge says it’s AI on every call. See how the conversation works.
A good call needs more
than a good voice.
A long pause makes a call feel awkward. So does a reply that cuts you off. Bludge is built to listen, prepare its reply and give you room to finish.
Many callers ask the same things in different ways. Do you cover my area? What does it cost? Can I book a time?
With Ready Replies, Bludge starts finding an answer while the caller speaks. If the question changes, it changes course. When it needs more time, it can let the caller know while it works on the answer.
In a US phone test, the median time to start speaking was 0.59 seconds across eight calls. For a new question, the first words may be a brief “mm-hm”.

When a question needs a new answer, it comes back to you. You can check the draft, change it and approve it. Bludge then has that reply ready for the next caller who needs it.
You stay in charge of what it learns. A new prepared reply is added only with your approval.

Give them a next step.
Before they try
someone else.
A caller wants to know if you can help. A useful answer gives them a reason to stay on the line. Bludge uses your details and rules to help them take the next step.
“Do you fix leaking taps?”
“Yes. What suburb are you in?”
Give a useful answer.
Explain what you do, take the details and offer a next step you can deliver.
“I just asked for a quote online.”
“Let’s get a few details about the job.”
Follow up while it’s fresh.
Call new leads while their request is still fresh. Bludge follows the consent rules and call hours you set.
“Do you repair washing machines?”
“We handle plumbing, but not appliance repairs.”
Check the fit. Keep the goodwill.
Check the job, area and timing. Use your approved prices to answer cost questions. Pass unclear requests to your team.

Real replies from a controlled test with a fictional business, September 2026. Not a customer call.
Transcript and test details
Recorded September 24, 2026. We gave Bludge a fictional air-conditioning business, Fern Air, and asked about services, hours and prices. Its replies are joined together; the caller questions are below.
- Caller
- Hi, do you repair split system air conditioners, and what time are you open?
- Bludge
- Yes, we repair split systems. Our hours are Monday to Friday, 8 am to 5 pm.
- Caller
- How much does a repair cost? Can you book me in for tomorrow?
- Bludge
- I do not know the cost of a repair. This is a preview, so I cannot book appointments.
The recording begins with Bludge identifying itself as AI and naming the fictional business. Synthetic caller audio; no customer call or booking. Playback gaps are removed. One controlled test, not phone-network latency or a customer testimonial.
- Knows a customer who has rung before.Greets them by name once they’ve confirmed it, and picks up where the last call left off.
Tell Bludge what you do, what it can say and when it should get you. You can change these rules at any time. See how a call goes
Questions you
might have.
More answers Can I keep my business number?
Usually, through call forwarding. We’ll help check the options with your phone provider.
Will my customers mind talking to AI?
Bludge says it’s AI, then gets on with helping. Some callers may still want a person. You choose when it should put them through or take a message. Hear an example, then test it with the questions your customers ask.
What if my customers hang up when they hear it’s AI?
Some may. We don’t yet have enough real customer calls to give you a reliable rate. Try it with the questions your callers ask and choose when a person should step in.
Does it make up answers?
It uses the details you give it and is told to say when it doesn’t know. AI can make mistakes. Test it before use and keep key decisions with your team. You can review new questions and approve answers for next time.
What happens in an emergency?
You set which urgent calls should reach your team. Bludge can skip the usual questions, take the key details and try your chosen numbers. If it spots danger, it gives the safety message set for that case. If no one answers, or it is outside your transfer hours, it takes a message and tells the caller. It does not replace emergency services.
Will I still know what my customers are asking?
Yes. You get a short note and a written record of each answered call. You can see what people asked and review questions that need a new answer. See how approving a reply works.
What does it cost?
Monthly plans from A$175 a month including GST, with no annual commitment and no charge per booking. See pricing.
