Queensland is about to hand construction businesses $5,000 for business software and training. There aren't many, and it's expected to run as a ballot. You lodge it from your own login the day it opens. We build the AI back-office it's designed to cover, grant or not. Little to nothing out of pocket for eligible businesses.
No date published yet, and it's expected to run as a ballot. We don't lodge grant applications, you submit yourself, and we build the system it funds.
Flat $5k for business management software and training. Statewide, limited numbers, expected to run as a ballot. Date and fine print not published yet, so being ready early is the edge.
Free workshops and up to 5 hours of one-on-one digital and AI advice per business, live right now through the government's ASBAS program. Real help you can use while the grant lands.
$7,500 with no co-contribution, funds website and marketing work. Currently between rounds. We'll flag you the moment it reopens so you're ready for that one too.
The grant funds the setup. What you get is an AI back-office trained on your business, doing the admin that eats your nights and drops your jobs.
Up a ladder at 3pm and the phone rings out? It answers, takes the details, books them in, and texts you the job. That missed call was someone else's job by tomorrow.
Walk the job talking into your phone, or send it a couple of site photos, and a proper quote comes back drafted. You check it and hit send from the ute.
Invoice drafts itself off the quote and whatever changed on site, then chases the unpaid ones on its own. The cash that sits in inboxes for three weeks starts landing.
Asks the happy customer for a review at the right moment, one tap for them. Your stars grow, and they're real, no gating, no hiding the grumpy ones.
Run the free 60-second check. It shows you the jobs your missed calls are dropping and the hours your paperwork is stealing, grant or no grant.
When the round opens you submit from your own login. We don't run grant applications, and nobody can lodge one for you under the rules. We tell you straight what it funds and where you stand.
We set up and train your AI back-office on your business, live in about 14 days. The grant is designed to cover the build for eligible businesses, and it's from $497/mo after.
Local and seasonal. Sunshine Coast builders are running two very different jobs at once. The master-planned corridors, Stockland's Aura at Caloundra South and AVID's Harmony at Palmview, throw off steady new-build and fit-out work, while the brand-new Maroochydore city centre and the Birtinya health precinct around the Sunshine Coast University Hospital feed the commercial end. Up in the hinterland around Buderim, Maleny and Montville it's custom acreage homes on tighter, sloping, often bushfire-overlay blocks. Storm season from November to March stalls pours and framing, so your program slips and clients need telling before they start ringing to ask why.
Your stack and job volume. Builders don't live in ServiceM8 like the service trades. You're on estimating-led software, Buildxact for resi takeoffs and quoting, simPRO once you cross into commercial progress claims and retentions, with Xero or MYOB underneath and a QBCC layer over the top (licence class, Minimum Financial Requirements, home warranty, written contracts over $3,300). This is the deep low-volume high-value end, a handful of jobs worth tens or hundreds of thousands at once, where the admin load is document weight per job rather than call volume.
What we would set up first. Start with quote and variation drafting from a voice note or a site photo. The margin on a build leaks in two spots: a variation agreed on site that never gets written up, and a progress claim that goes out late and chokes cash inside the tight BIF Act windows, where a payment schedule falls due within 15 business days. Get the document weight off your evenings first, the phone matters less on a builder than on any other trade here.
Most of the mob doing this are remote agencies wiring up generic tools from interstate. We're Brisbane-based, your data stays onshore and stays yours, and the system learns how your business actually runs. We work with builders and trades right across the Sunshine Coast.
He helped me reprocess more than 1,000 invoices with AI to pull the data for our expense and profit report. Before, I was overwhelmed, and it would have taken me forever. He can always find a way to lighten the work and the mental load.
Government money or not, an AI back-office catches one missed call and it's paid for itself. See what your business is leaking this week, free, in 60 seconds.
See what you're leaking. Free 60-second checkFree to run the check. The AI back-office is from $497/mo, and the grant is designed to cover the build for eligible businesses. We don't lodge grant applications.
The Construction Business Advancement Grant hasn't opened yet and the government hasn't published the date or the full eligibility rules. We can't promise you'll get it, nobody can. What we can do is get you assessed and your application fully prepared, ready for you to submit the instant it opens, which is what counts when spots are limited.
The grant funds recognised business software and training. We set that up and train your crew, then the ongoing AI back-office runs on a simple monthly plan once the setup's done. The compliance and records are yours, the system just makes logging and finding them dead easy.
If it turns out you don't qualify, we'll tell you straight, and point you to the free advisory support that's available right now instead.
