Try Matey
Don't take our word for it. Talk to it.
A working Matey with a sample plumbing business loaded. Describe a job and watch the invoice build itself, see who owes you, or tap the mic and say it out loud.
G'day Jack. I've loaded a sample business, Harbour Plumbing, with real-looking jobs, clients and three overdue invoices. Ask me anything, or describe a job and I'll invoice it.
Sample data only. Nothing is sent to anyone. Press Enter to send.
Your AI business coach
Same jobs. Same crew. More money in your pocket.
Job management apps store your information. Matey reads it and tells you what to do about it: which jobs make money, who to chase, and what to fix this week.
01Your Monday brief
Your week, planned before your first coffee.
Every Monday at 8am Matey reads your numbers and writes you a plain-English brief: what you invoiced, what's overdue, which jobs made money and the one thing to do this week. If last week's action didn't get done, it says so.
- Last week's numbers in four short paragraphs
- One specific action for the week ahead
- Follows up if the action isn't done
02Job margin intelligence
Know if you made money before you've packed the ute.
Close a job and Matey asks two things: hours worked and material cost. It does the maths with your hourly rate and gives you a verdict in dollars per hour, not a spreadsheet. After a few months it knows which job types to chase and which to walk away from.
- Profit per hour on every completed job
- Green, amber or red verdict on the job list
- Your best and worst job types each month
03Overdue alerts
Invoice #47 is 14 days overdue. Here's what to send.
The moment an invoice goes 7 days past due, Matey puts it at the top of your screen with the reminder already written in your voice. One tap sends it by email or SMS, then Matey keeps following up until it's paid. No awkward phone call.
- Alert at 7 days, firmer at 14 and 21
- AI-drafted reminder you can edit before sending
- Card, Apple Pay and bank transfer on every invoice
04Your business coach
Ask Matey anything about your money. Out loud.
No typing with grubby hands. Ask how last month went, which jobs are most profitable, or to draft a quote. Matey knows your rates, your clients and your numbers, and answers like a coach who's read the books, not a chatbot.
- Voice to quote or invoice in seconds
- Answers from your real job and invoice data
- Industry benchmarks for your trade
