The version of AI email triage that works for a Canberra business is rarely the version a national vendor would sell you. We build the one that fits how your team actually operates - usually with fewer parts than the off-the-shelf pitch.
AI inbox manager, built for businesses operating in Canberra.
Our goal is to give Canberra businesses a three-day weekend, so people can spend more time with their families and the people they love :)
What AI email triage actually does
Inbox gets the AI treatment - drafts replies, files quotes, escalates the urgent, and snoozes the noise. Your team starts the day at zero, not 200 unread.
- 01 Drafts replies in your tone, ready to send
- 02 Auto-files attachments to the right job folder
- 03 Detects complaints and pings the right person
- 04 Weekly digest of what was handled while you slept
Built on: Claude Gmail API Microsoft Graph Vercel

What you actually get
Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. This is what is in the box.
- A working pilot, in productionNot a prototype on someone's laptop. The first slice of AI email triage runs against real work within weeks.
- Your data stays yoursIt runs on your accounts and your tools. If we part ways you keep the system and everything in it.
- The workflow mapped before codeWe write down what good looks like for Canberra businesses first, so nobody is guessing at handover.
- Support after it landsThe people who built it stay reachable when the business changes shape around it.
How AI email triage compares
The two things most businesses do instead, and where each one runs out.
| Hiring for it | An off-the-shelf tool | Koala Dynamics | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fit to how you work | Fits perfectly, costs a salary | You bend your process to suit the tool | Built around the workflow you already run |
| Time to something useful | Immediate, and permanent | Quick to switch on, slow to make fit | A working slice in weeks, then hardened |
| Who owns the data | You do | The vendor, on the vendor's terms | You do, in your own accounts |
| When it breaks | That person sorts it, if they are in | A support queue and a ticket number | The people who built it |
| What it costs | A salary, every year, forever | Per seat, forever, used or not | Scoped and quoted up front |
Why Canberra businesses are a fit for this.
- Canberra runs on government, policy and the contractors that service them - AI here has to handle process and compliance as carefully as it handles speed.
- Federal departments and the consultancies orbiting them generate huge volumes of documents, submissions and reporting. Canberra teams want AI that speeds up drafting and research without ever guessing on something that needs a citation.
We work with teams across Canberra: Civic · Belconnen · Woden · Gungahlin · Tuggeranong · Barton.

How we build AI email triage for a Canberra team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Canberra business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI inbox manager.
Talk to usHow the work runs
- Find the one workflowWe look for the job costing Canberra businesses the most hours or the most leads, and deliberately ignore the rest for now.
- Ship a working sliceA narrow version goes into production in weeks, against real work, so the value shows up before the build is finished.
- Prove it, then widenWe measure it against what the work cost before. If it does not pay for itself, we say so rather than scaling it.
- Harden and hand overLogging, fallbacks and a real handover, so it keeps running when we are not in the room.
The outcome for Canberra teams
If we build the right slice first, Canberra teams feel the difference inside the first month. Inbox time cut from 2 hours/day to under 30 minutes.

FAQ
When does AI email triage actually pay back?
Inside the first quarter, in our experience. We pick the first slice specifically because it's the highest-leverage workflow for a Canberra - so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.
Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?
Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call - fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.
What's the realistic outcome for Canberra businesses?
Inbox time cut from 2 hours/day to under 30 minutes. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Will this run on our own infrastructure?
Yes, where it makes sense. AI email triage can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to Claude, Gmail API, Microsoft Graph, Vercel but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
