About us

Built by a builder. For builders.

Autonomous Business Solutions exists because running a build company shouldn't mean drowning in phone calls, missed leads and paperwork. We make AI tools that take the office off your back — so you can stay on the tools.

The mission

Enterprise AI. Builder pricing.

The biggest companies in the world run on AI. Customer service, lead routing, scheduling, reporting — all automated. Meanwhile, the average Australian builder is still juggling missed calls on a Friday afternoon and chasing quotes by hand at 9pm.

ABS exists to close that gap. We take the same AI infrastructure powering Fortune 500 contact centres and shrink it down to a price a one-person plumbing crew can afford. No code. No tech team. Just tools that work.

Australia From the trades, to the trades
Founder Geoff Symons
The founder

Builder. Founder. Now building the tools he wished he had.

Geoff Symons started Mintconstruct as a hands-on builder. Years of running quotes, sites, clients and crews taught him exactly where every hour gets lost — and most of those hours are off the tools, on the phone, or in the office.

When ElevenLabs released conversational AI capable of holding real phone conversations, Geoff built the first version of Emma to answer calls at Mintconstruct. It worked. The calls stopped getting missed. The bookings came in cleaner. The office calmed down.

ABS is the answer to one question: "What if every builder in Australia had this?"

The vision

Every tradie. Every builder.
Fully automated back-office.

Within five years, every Australian construction business — from solo trades to nationwide builders — should be running with an AI-powered back office. ABS will be the one that built it.

Now

Emma — the AI receptionist. Live and answering phones at Mintconstruct, ready to deploy to builders across Australia.

Next

AI estimating, AI site reporting, AI contract management — taking the most painful office tasks and handing them to AI.

The endgame

A full AI workforce — phones, admin, estimating, scheduling, comms — running quietly in the background of every Aussie build company.

Why construction?

Because we know it.

Generic SaaS doesn't get construction. They don't understand variations, retentions, site visits, callbacks, or the difference between a tile job and a full reno. We do — because we live in it every day.

Every product we build is shaped by real builders solving real problems. Not a tech founder guessing what your day looks like.
