Adelaide , South Australia Jul 6, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - From plumbing emergencies to beauty consultations and car repairs, a new wave of AI receptionists is quietly revolutionising how Australian businesses handle incoming calls — and most customers have no idea they’re speaking to a machine.
Johnni.ai, a South Australian tech start-up, has a cutting-edge Australian voice AI receptionist that helps businesses across industries answer calls, schedule appointments, and respond to common questions — all with consistent speed, accuracy, and professionalism.
Research from Alliance Virtual Offices and Numa AI reveals that nearly 47% of calls to small businesses go unanswered, with more than one in four callers hanging up before leaving a voicemail.
“We’ve seen businesses grow revenue simply by not missing calls,” said Paul Kidis and Brodie Legget, co-founders of Johnni.ai. “Most owners don’t realise how many leads slip through the cracks. Our platform solves that by responding instantly — any time, day or night.”
Unlike generic phone bots or outdated systems, Johnni.ai delivers a custom experience tailored to each business. It learns their services, pricing, FAQs, and even speaks in a natural Australian accent to maintain a familiar tone with callers. It’s also bilingual, making it ideal for businesses serving diverse communities.
One Johnni.ai customer — a local trade business — booked 26 extra jobs in just one month, generating over $16,000 in additional revenue, all handled seamlessly by the AI receptionist.
“Our technology isn’t just answering phones,” said Legget. “It’s a reliable team member that’s always on, never misses a detail, and answers every call instantly.”
From tradies and accountants to wellness clinics and professional services, more Australian businesses are turning to Johnni.ai to recover lost revenue and provide consistent, 24/7 customer support.
