Your business, on its own systems.

What we’re here for
We want to help you own your systems, not rent someone else’s.
Most trade businesses run on WhatsApp threads, spreadsheets and the owner’s memory. That works until it doesn’t. Hando gives you the systems a bigger company would have, sized for yours, with a person always in control.
- 01
Help first, AI second
AI is the engine, not the point. Every app exists to take work off your plate: faster replies, cleaner quotes, fewer late nights on admin.
- 02
Systems that are yours
Your logo, your way of working, your data. Not another generic tool you bend your business around, but your own office, running in software.
- 03
Built to help you scale
Start with one app that pays for itself, then add the next when you're ready. The same systems that run the business behind Hando.

A human approves
Nothing reaches a customer without your click.
Your data stays yours
Never sold, never used for training.
Questions
Frequently asked
What is Hando?
We help trade businesses run on their own systems: apps that answer leads, quote, manage subbies and show your numbers, set up for your business. AI does the heavy lifting; you stay in control. Built inside a working Brisbane trade business.
Is it only for painters and cleaners?
No. That's where it was built, but it fits any trade that quotes jobs and runs crews — sparkies, plumbers, builders, landscapers and more.
Do I need ServiceM8 and Xero?
Only for the Subcontractor Portal, Scheduling and the Cockpit. Lead Response, Lead Acceptance and the back-office setup work with any setup.
What does it cost?
From $199/month for Lead Response. All prices AUD, ex GST — see pricing for the full list and founding-client rates.
