AI platforms live in market

Built for NDIS · Aged care · Trades · Construction · Community services · Retail · Hospitality · Professional services — and any business that runs on people, admin, or compliance.

If you're still doing this by hand,
AI is already eating your margin.

These are the problems custom AI is built to remove — usually in 28 days or less.

Three hours a day writing quotes by hand
Spreadsheet chains held together by goodwill
Compliance reporting that's always late
A team that can't scale because admin is the bottleneck
Senior people doing $25/hr work all day
Generic SaaS that almost fits but never quite

Every one of these is exactly what a custom AI build is meant to take off your plate — fast.

What you get

A custom AI built around your business.
Not a chatbot. Not a SaaS. A real tool.

Designed around your operations, your compliance, your industry — by an operator who's run the kind of business you're running.

01

Built for your operation

Designed around how your business actually runs. Not a generic tool you have to bend your process around.

02

28-day fixed timeline

First working version by day 21. Final delivery by day 28. Fixed quote up front. No scope creep, no surprises.

03

Built to pay for itself

Designed so the hours it saves cover its cost inside the first month — measured in real hours saved per week, not vague "productivity gains".

Why trust this

Built by an operator who's
already shipped real AI.

This isn't a slide deck or a side project. Ask Yr Grandpa already has 5 AI platforms live in market — including a full NDIS & aged-care CRM running real providers — built by someone who's operated businesses with 900+ staff for over 20 years. — Gus Gale, Founder · Brisbane

What we build

The systems that take the
admin off your plate.

A few of the builds that pull the most hours out of a business. Yours gets scoped around where your time actually goes.

01

AI receptionist

Answers after-hours calls, books appointments and captures every enquiry — then routes the urgent ones to a human. Never sleeps, never drops a call.

02

Quoting & proposals engine

Turns a job's details into a priced, on-brand quote in minutes instead of hours — built around how you price, not a generic template.

03

Compliance & reporting

Pulls your data into the reports your industry demands — NDIS, aged care, trades — on time, without the manual chase.

From first call to working AI

The 28-day process.
Fixed price. No surprises.

A deliberately small process. Every step is mapped before you pay a cent — and you see working software well before the final invoice.

1
Day 0 — Free

30-minute strategy call

We map your operation together and find where AI cuts the most hours. You don't need to know anything about AI — Gus comes prepared.

2
Day 2–6

Gap analysis & fixed quote

A written analysis of where AI delivers the fastest ROI, then a clear scope of works: exactly what gets built, the timeline, and the price. You sign off before anything starts.

3
Day 7

50% deposit — build starts

The deposit kicks off the build. It's the only payment before you see the working product.

4
Day 21

First working version

You get the first version to test with your team. You review it, use it, and tell us what to sharpen before final delivery.

5
Day 28

Final delivery & handover

Feedback incorporated, final version delivered, remaining 50% due. Full training and documentation included. You own the result.

Pricing

Transparent pricing.
No surprises, no lock-in.

One fixed price for the build, scoped and quoted individually after your free call. No scope creep, no lock-in.

The Build

One fixed price agreed up front — no scope creep. 50% deposit to start, 50% on final delivery at day 28.

The build is designed to pay for itself inside the first month — in hours saved on admin alone. If AI won't move the needle for your business, Gus will tell you on the first call.

Gus Gale, founder of Ask Yr Grandpa
The builder

Built by someone who's
actually run the businesses.

20+ years building and operating real businesses across NDIS, aged care, youth justice, residential care, community services, construction, and trades. 900+ staff employed over that time. 5 AI platforms now live in market. 50+ business setbacks survived.

I'm not a tech agency. I'm an operator who learned to build AI because the tools we needed didn't exist. Now I build them for businesses like yours — fast, fixed-price, and built from inside the industry.

— Gus Gale, Founder · Brisbane, Australia

Common questions

Quick answers before you book.

What does a build actually cost?

Builds are scoped individually with a fixed quote before anything starts — no surprises, no scope creep. A 50% deposit kicks off the build, the final 50% is due on delivery. It's designed to pay for itself inside the first month.

What if AI can't help my business?

Then I'll tell you in the first 30-minute call and you'll have lost an hour. If your business runs on people, admin, or compliance — AI can almost certainly help. If it can't, I'll say so up front.

How is this different from ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a generic AI tool. What I build is a custom system designed around your specific operation — quoting your kind of jobs, handling your compliance, talking to your existing systems. The difference is the same as Excel vs. having an accountant.

What if I don't know what I need?

That's exactly what the free 30-minute call is for. I'll listen to where your time goes, identify the biggest leverage points, and tell you honestly what would and wouldn't make sense to build.

Do I need technical staff to use it?

No. Everything is delivered ready to use with full training and documentation, and ongoing maintenance is handled for you. If you can use email, you can use what I build.

What if the build doesn't work?

The 50% deposit kicks off the build. The final 50% isn't due until the final version is delivered and you're satisfied. If you're not, I keep working until it does what we agreed.

Let's see if this fits.

One 30-minute call. Free. No pitch. Either AI is going to save you serious time in your business — or it isn't, and you'll have a clear answer either way.
