I need a plumber this afternoon. Hot water is gone.

What good is ranking #1 if the call is missed?

Aroha turns the high-intent moment into a handled conversation, not a voicemail gamble.

One Aroha Group engine

Pick managed or self-serve. Same core system.

Aroha Calls is what businesses buy when they want the result handled for them. Aroha AI is the platform behind it for owners who want to build and control the setup themselves.

Aroha Calls

Done-for-you. We build it, tune it, manage it.

Best when you want the phone answered and the whole system handled for you. Leo sets up the voice, booking rules, knowledge, follow-up, and support path.

Aroha AI

Self-serve. You build and control it yourself.

Best when you want direct control of the same engine: voice, CRM, Email AI, messages, calendar rules, automations, and Aurora inside arohaai.app.

Built for service calls

For tradies on the tools

When you're under a sink, on a roof, or driving between jobs, Aroha answers before the customer rings someone else.

01

Under a sink

Aroha captures the issue, suburb, urgency, and callback details.

02

On a roof

The customer gets a calm answer instead of voicemail.

03

Between jobs

Aroha books the next step before they ring someone else.

Proof of intelligence

Watch Aroha handle a real call flow.

Not a fixed script. Pick a niche and watch the call change: different questions, rules, routing, summaries, and next actions.

Aroha Calls - live example

On-site plumbing team

Incoming call

Hot water cylinder leaking after hours

00:00

Caller

Hi, my hot water cylinder is leaking and I need someone today.

Rule Aroha follows

Capture suburb, urgency, access notes, and route emergencies.

Detected emergency language

Asked safety and urgency questions

Captured suburb and access details

Queued owner notification

Outcome

Urgent job captured, summary sent, customer does not ring the next plumber.

Job type: leaking cylinder
Suburb: Spreydon
Priority: urgent
Next action: owner callback

The real leak

You do not need more leads if the ones calling now are being missed.

Most owners spend money getting attention, then lose the customer at the exact moment they are ready to talk. Aroha Calls fixes that handoff: phone to booking, email to reply, enquiry to CRM, follow-up to customer.

01

They find you

Google, ads, referrals, old customers. The hard part already happened.

02

Then the phone rings out

No answer means no trust. The caller does not wait around to admire your website.

03

They call the next option

The lead you paid to earn becomes someone else's booking in under a minute.

04

Aroha catches it

Every call gets answered, qualified, booked, summarised, and followed up.

Built to close the call, not just answer it

The website gets attention. Aroha turns that attention into a handled lead.

The strongest pitch is simple: your marketing already creates demand. Aroha makes sure the moment does not die at ringing, voicemail, slow follow-up, or forgotten admin.

salonsclinicstradiesreal estategymsautovetscafes

Pain

You paid to rank or advertise. Then the caller reaches voicemail.

Aroha fix

Aroha answers the high-intent moment, captures the job, and moves the lead before they call the next result.

Product clips from the Aroha AI operating layer

Not just a phone bot. The full customer side of the business.

Aroha Calls is the managed package. Underneath it is the Aroha AI workspace Leo uses: voice, inbox, email AI, messages, CRM, Aurora, calendars, analytics, and recovery queues.

Revenue leak estimator

Put a number on the calls slipping through.

This is not a promise of revenue. It is a quick way to show the risk: if people already call your business, missed calls are not an admin problem. They are a conversion leak.

Pain switchboard

Every leak in the customer journey, covered by one managed system.

Aroha Calls is not selling a gimmick. It is a front-office operating layer for the exact places service businesses lose money: phone, inbox, follow-up, calendar, CRM, and handoff.

Google leads

The leak and the fix

Pain

You paid for the click, review, referral, or ranking. Then the phone rings while nobody can answer.

Aroha fix

Aroha answers immediately, captures the job type, suburb, urgency, and contact details, then books or routes the lead.

Instant call pickup
Caller summary
Owner notification

Pain by niche

Every industry loses calls for a different reason. Aroha closes the same gap.

The call is already high intent. The product just needs to meet the caller before their patience runs out.

Without Aroha

Tradies

You are on the tools. The best jobs call while your hands are full.

With Aroha Calls

Aroha qualifies urgency, suburb, job type, and books the callback or appointment before they ring another tradie.

Loved by Kiwi & Yankee businesses

Don't take our word for it.

From sole-trade sparkies to multi-location clinics — Aroha is the receptionist they wish they hired five years ago.
