Live for UK tradespeople

Never miss a
customer again.

The AI front desk that answers your number, books the job and takes the deposit — while you're on the tools.

Sonadesk is a done-for-you AI front desk for UK trades — not a toolkit you assemble. Website, bookings, payments and paperwork included. Built for you, live in days.

That's our real line — if we can't pick up, the AI does. The only demo this honest.

We build your website & your AI free, before you pay a penny — you see exactly what you'd get, then decide. No card needed.

Don’t take our word for it

Don’t take our word for it. Take our call.

That’s our real business line. If we can’t get to the phone, our own AI receptionist picks up — has a natural chat, takes your details and texts back. Exactly what your customers would get. No other demo is that honest.

Try: “Ask it for a price”“Ask for a Thursday slot”“Ask it something weird”

Then check what you heard: it never invents prices, never overbooks, and texts a tidy summary — exactly what your customers get.

"I built Sonadesk because I kept watching good local businesses lose work simply because they couldn't get to the phone. My promise: we tailor it to your business, you only pay when you're ready, and if it doesn't catch you more work, it isn't doing its job."

— Hayden, Founder of Sonadesk

The honest bill: your plan price + 0.5% on payments we process. That's it. Every plan includes a generous monthly AI allowance — if you somehow use it all, the AI simply pauses (your website, booking and dashboard keep working) until you choose a top-up. Nothing is charged automatically unless you switch auto top-up on yourself. Customer payments settle straight into your own Stripe account and your bank; the 0.5% sits on top of your own Stripe/card fees. For comparison: the same stack self-assembled on a typical all-in-one marketing toolkit runs roughly £190–£260+ a month once the AI add-on, messaging channels, usage fees and VAT stack up — before an agency's margin, and you're the one building it (checked against public pricing, July 2026).

The front desk vs the toolkit

All-in-one toolkits make you the builder.
Sonadesk is already built.

All-in-one marketing toolkits — and the agencies who resell them — hand you a powerful kit of parts. You (or an agency you pay) assemble the website, the workflows, the AI, the number. We hand you a front desk that's already hired, trained and answering your phone.

These toolkits are genuinely powerful — for the marketing agencies who assemble and resell them. That's not you. Most hand you the pieces and expect the setup, configuration and ongoing oversight to be done by you. Ours requires a phone.

Why Sonadesk

The maths is simple

A part-time receptionist costs hundreds a week and clocks off at five. Doing nothing costs you the jobs you miss. Sonadesk is on 24/7 — for a fraction of either.

The DIY stack

£450+/mo

Job app (£35) + answering service (£205/150 mins) + reviews tool (£99) + website guy (£100+). Four logins. Nothing talks to anything.

Sonadesk

from £99/mo

Website, AI receptionist on calls, texts & web chat, booking, deposits, invoices, certificates, CRM and marketing — one system, one bill, 60-day guarantee.

A part-time receptionist

£1,000+/mo

Clocks off at 5. Off sick. Doesn't do your invoices or chase your quotes. Lovely person though.

How we compare

Most software charges extra for the AI.
With us it’s the whole point.

With typical trade software, AI call answering is a paid add-on, gated behind the top tiers — or simply missing. Sonadesk is built around it — with the website, booking, invoicing and CRM included.

FAQ

Good to know

Do I need to be techy?
Not at all. We set the whole thing up for you. You tap a couple of "Connect" buttons for your calendar and payments — that's it. It just works, like your phone.
What if I already have a website?
Keep it — nothing gets thrown away. We drop the AI chat onto your existing site with one line of code, you keep your own domain and number, and you use just the pieces you want. (A fresh branded site is included in every plan if you'd like one anyway.)
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. Calls ring you first, exactly like they do now — the AI only picks up if you can't. You keep the number your customers already know; we just make sure nobody rings out.
Is my data — and my customers' data — safe?
Yes. Everything is encrypted, handled in line with UK GDPR, and your customers' details stay yours — we never sell or share them. Card payments are processed entirely by Stripe, so we never see or store card numbers. Our privacy policy and Data Processing Agreement are published, and you can ask us to delete your data at any time.
Will the AI say the wrong thing or mess up my bookings?
No — it's tightly controlled. It only quotes your real prices, only offers genuinely free slots, never takes card details (just sends a secure link), and hands over to you when it's unsure. Anything sensitive waits for your approval, and every action is logged and reversible.
Whose money is it — do payments come to me?
It’s yours. Payments settle straight into your own Stripe and your bank — Sonadesk takes a small 0.5% platform fee on payments you take through us, and nothing else.
How quickly can I be live?
Days, not months. We build it branded to your business, you connect your accounts, and it starts catching work from day one.
Can I cancel?
Yes — no long lock-ins. But once it's catching you jobs you were losing, you won't want to.
Can I really try it before paying anything?
Yes — twice over. First, ring 07862 147467 right now and try to catch our AI out. Second, create a free account (no card), tell us about your business, and we'll build your branded website and AI as a free preview. You look it over, request changes, and only pay when you want it switched on. If it's not for you, walk away — it cost you nothing.
How is this different from the usual job-management apps?
They're job-management apps first — good ones. But AI call answering is usually a paid extra on top of your plan, gated behind top tiers, or missing entirely. Sonadesk is built the other way round: the AI front desk is the core, and the website, booking, deposits, invoices, certificates and CRM come included. One UK price in pounds, set up done for you. And unlike marketing toolkits built for agencies to assemble and resell — there's nothing for you to build: it arrives working, on your own number.
What happens if I use up my monthly AI allowance?
Nothing scary — and definitely no surprise bill. The AI extras simply pause until your allowance renews or you choose a top-up. Your website, online booking and dashboard keep working the whole time. Auto top-up exists, but it's off unless you turn it on, and you set the amount.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes — our 60-day catch-work guarantee. If Sonadesk doesn't catch you work you'd otherwise have missed in your first 60 days — a call answered while you were on a job, a booking taken overnight, an enquiry captured from chat — we'll refund your subscription for that period. Simple as that.
Do you do anything for referrals?
Yes — know another local business that misses calls? Refer them and you get £50 credited to your account once they subscribe (it comes straight off your next bill). They get their website and AI built free to try first, like any new customer. Just have them mention your business name, or share your link from the dashboard.
