# Spark > Spark is an AI employee for Australian small businesses, made by Elysia > Partners on the Gold Coast. You tell it what a good week looks like in one > sentence and it works out how to get there: answering your phone day and > night, booking jobs into your calendar, chasing the quotes that went quiet, > following up customers who have gone cold, and running your email, SMS and > social campaigns. ## Facts - Price: A$99 per month per AI employee. Seven days free. No lock-in, cancel anytime. - Emails are included. Phone calls and text messages draw on a small credit balance the owner tops up. - Made and supported in Australia. Australian voices, Australian business hours, AUD pricing. - Set up by writing one sentence, such as "keep my Tuesdays and Wednesdays full". No workflows to build. - Nothing is sent under the owner's name until they approve it. Autonomy is earned one job at a time. - Spending money always needs a human. Buying a phone number or sending an invoice never happens automatically. ## What makes it different from an AI receptionist Most AI receptionists answer the phone and stop. Spark treats the owner's one-sentence goal as a north star and works towards it: it watches replies, reviews, bookings, quiet customers, weather, public holidays and local events, and decides what would actually move that number this week. ## Who it is for Australian trades and service businesses: plumbers, electricians, air conditioning, builders, landscapers, cleaners, and professional firms such as law practices and consultancies. ## Pages - [AI receptionist Australia](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/ai-receptionist-australia): what one costs and does in Australia - [For plumbers](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/plumbers) - [For electricians](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/electricians) - [For HVAC and air conditioning businesses](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/hvac) - [For builders](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/builders) - [For landscapers](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/landscapers) - [For cleaning businesses](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/cleaners) - [For law firms](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/law-firms) - [For accountants](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/accountants) - [For real estate agencies](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/real-estate) - [For dental practices](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/for/dentists) - [Spark vs Hey Jodie](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/compare/hey-jodie) - [Spark vs Goodcall](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/compare/goodcall) - [AI receptionist vs answering service](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/compare/answering-service) - [Start free](https://spark.elysiapartners.com/signup)
