How we work

A person stays in charge.

Anything that leaves the building or costs money waits for someone on your team to say yes. Every decision is logged.

Your data stays yours.

It lives in your accounts. We put in writing which models we use and where the data goes. None of them train on it.

Your team runs it after.

Documented for the person who runs the office, not for an engineer. No lock-in, no licence you did not ask for.

A rule your team writes, in plain words

Pay supplier invoices automatically when they match a purchase order within 5%.
Anything else, or any new supplier, wait for Dana.
Never pay an invoice over $5,000 without Marcus.

What we take off your plate.

The four jobs that eat the most hours in Australian businesses, and what taking them back is worth.

Invoices and orders keyed overnight

Every invoice, order and form read and entered into Xero or your job system before anyone arrives. Only the odd ones wait for a person.

Why it matters. The ATO puts the cost of handling a PDF invoice by hand at about $28. Most of that is someone reading and typing. On 300 invoices a month, that is a wage.

Support answered in minutes, not days

A reply drafted from the customer's own order and your past answers, waiting for a tick.

Why it matters. Customers expect an answer inside the hour and buy from whoever gives one. Your team stops copy-pasting and starts closing.

Quotes out the same day

Your pricing rules and your last hundred quotes applied to the new enquiry. Check the margin, hit send.

Why it matters. The first quote in usually wins. Yours goes out while the customer is still deciding, not on Thursday with everyone else's.

Monday's numbers, ready Monday

Cash, jobs, overdue and margin pulled from the systems you already have, with the problems in plain words and the chasers already drafted.

Why it matters. Australian invoices get paid a week late on average and owners spend about three hours a week chasing them (Xero). Overdue shows up Monday, not at month end.

Also bookkeeping and reconciliation, an AI receptionist for the phones, and a half-day of AI training for your team with a written AI policy so people use it safely.

Live in seven weeks.
Then it is yours.

One workflow, in production, run by your team. No strategy deck. No pilot that never ships.

Week 1

Look

Half a day with the people who do the work. We map where the hours go and pick the two or three jobs worth doing first. You get a written plan with a price on it.

Weeks 2 to 6

Build

Built inside what you already run. Xero, HubSpot, Outlook, your job system. A person signs off on anything that leaves the building.

Week 7

Hand over

Written down in plain English. We train the person who will own it, and leave.

After, if you want

Keep it running

A monthly retainer for changes, the next job on the list, and keeping the models current as they improve.

Pricing.

Fixed prices, quoted in writing after the first call. If the audit does not find at least ten hours a week worth taking, you do not pay for it.

Readiness audit

[PRICE]

One week. The written plan: which jobs, in what order, what each will cost and what it will save.

Free if we find nothing worth automating. Credited against a build sprint.

Brisbane, Queensland

AI consultants in Brisbane.
Working across Australia.

Maxking is an Australian AI consultancy based in Brisbane. The people who do your work spent years inside large, high-traffic enterprise systems, the kind where an outage makes the news. We bring that habit of building things that keep working to businesses of every size, from a ten-person trade business to a national operation.

Most engagements run remotely with on-site days in South East Queensland when they help. Your data stays in Australian-hosted accounts where that matters to you.

We also write The GraphQL Handbook, free, for the engineering teams we work with.

Questions we get asked.

Is our data safe?

It stays in your accounts. We use models that are contractually barred from training on your inputs, and we tell you in writing which ones and where the data goes.

We do not have anyone technical.

Most of our clients do not. Everything we build is documented for the person who runs the office, not for an engineer.

Will it replace my staff?

It takes the parts of the job people are glad to lose. Every workflow has a named person in charge of it, and a point where they can say no.

We tried ChatGPT. It did not stick.

That is normal. A chat window is not a system. Connecting it to your data and your tools, with checks, is the part that makes it stick.

How do I know it will pay for itself?

The audit puts a number on it before you spend anything on a build: hours a week per job, what those hours cost you, and what the build will cost. If the numbers do not work, we say so and you do not pay for the audit.

How much does an AI consultant cost?

We do not bill by the hour. A readiness audit is a fixed price for one week. A build sprint is a fixed price for one workflow in production. Both are quoted in writing after a 30-minute call.

Do you only work in Brisbane?

We are based in Brisbane and work with businesses across Australia. Most engagements run remotely, with on-site days in South East Queensland when they help.
