Missed calls are lost money.
Never miss another customer call.
CloudNext sets up and manages AI receptionists, websites and chatbots for trades and service businesses. Answer every call, capture every lead, and book more jobs without adding reception staff.
Two ways we help
Websites + chatbot + AI receptionist bundle, or custom software.
The bundle is for trades and service businesses that want the phone and website handled. Custom software is for businesses that need an app, an MVP or a SaaS product.
AI receptionist, website and chatbot, managed.
We set it up, test it and manage it. You keep your number, your calendar and your team. The AI handles the calls and enquiries you cannot get to.

The problem
The lead usually goes to the business that answers first.
For a trade, a missed call is rarely a missed call. It is a job that went to someone else.
After hours
Calls that go to voicemail while the business is closed, driving or on the tools.
When you're busy
Calls that arrive while the team is already on another job or with a customer.
Slow quotes
Enquiries that wait hours for a reply, then buy from the next business.
The numbers depend on the business. That is why the first step is a call-flow review, not a sales pitch.
How it works
We set it up. We keep it running.
You do not need to learn a chatbot builder or become a phone-system expert. That is the point of the service.
We map the missed calls
We look at how calls, enquiries and bookings arrive now, and where they get lost.
We set up the flow
Website, chatbot, AI receptionist, booking rules, calendar and call forwarding.
We test it properly
After-hours, busy times, emergencies, reschedules, bad lines and requests for a human.
We manage it
You get summaries, reporting and ongoing tuning. You do not have to become a chatbot operator.
Trades first
Built around how trade businesses actually work.
Missed calls, urgent jobs, quote requests, reschedules and after-hours enquiries. Start with your trade.
Plumbers
Plumbing work is urgent. A missed call is usually a job that goes to the next plumber.
See the plumbers setup →Electricians
Electrical calls are urgent and high-value. The caller often rings two or three electricians before one answers.
See the electricians setup →HVAC
HVAC work is seasonal and urgent. When the air conditioning fails, the caller wants a booking, not a voicemail.
See the hvac setup →Mowing and Lawn Care
Recurring lawn work lives on scheduling. Missed calls and slow quotes cost repeat customers.
See the mowing and lawn care setup →Cleaning
Cleaning enquiries are often price-sensitive and time-sensitive. Fast, clear answers win the booking.
See the cleaning setup →Pricing

Questions
What business owners usually ask.
What does CloudNext do?+
CloudNext is an Australia-based software studio. It sets up websites, website chatbots and voice AI receptionists for trades and service businesses, and builds custom software, MVPs and SaaS platforms.
Do you only work with trades?+
Trades are the first focus because missed calls and bookings are a clear problem. The same setup can work for other service businesses. CloudNext also builds custom software for other industries.
Do I need to change my phone number?+
Usually no. In most cases your existing number can forward to the AI receptionist. CloudNext tests the forwarding and what happens when it can’t answer before go live.
Can I try the AI before I buy?+
Yes. We will set up a demo for you before you commit. Contact us and we will walk you through how it handles calls for your business, using your services, hours and booking rules.
Is this the same as BulletChat?+
BulletChat is the self-service chatbot platform. CloudNext is the service that sets up and manages the chatbot, AI receptionist and booking for you.
How much does it cost?+
Pricing depends on how calls are handled, minutes, connections and support. The pricing page explains the components, and the final quote is confirmed on a 15-minute call.
