How does Deskie work?
When you can't answer, your calls forward to Deskie instead of going to voicemail. Deskie answers in a natural Australian voice, just like a real receptionist, and asks what matters to your business: what do they need, when do they need it, location... all set by you. Then Deskie texts you the details in seconds. Nobody gets left talking to a beep, and no job walks out the door.
Can I keep using my current phone number?
Yes. Your number stays the same. Your customers keep calling the number they already know, and Deskie only answers when you can't: you're busy, out of range, your phone's off or flat, or you just can't get to it.
Can I still answer calls myself?
Yes. Your phone rings as normal and you can answer whoever you want. But if you can't answer, or don't want to, the call diverts to Deskie who takes the details and texts them to you.
Does Deskie sound like a robot?
No. Deskie answers in a natural Australian voice with a light Aussie accent. Don't take our word for it: call Deskie on 0485 017 007 and hear for yourself.
How easy is setup? Do I need to book a call?
Two minutes, anytime, 24/7. No booking, no forms, no credit card. Deskie asks about your business and how you want your calls answered, and you'll hear first-hand exactly how Deskie sounds to your customers. Just call 0485 017 007 to start.
How much does Deskie cost?
Deskie's Core Plan is $149/month and includes 60 answered calls. Start with 14 free calls so you know Deskie's right for you before you pay a cent. No credit card, no setup fee, cancel anytime.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. 14 free calls, so you hear Deskie handle your real callers before paying anything. Start anytime, no credit card needed.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel anytime through your account or email support@deskie.com.au. No contracts. No cancellation fees. Service stays active until the end of your billing period. Dial ##002# to stop call forwarding immediately.
What if Deskie cannot answer a question?
Deskie is designed not to guess. If something needs your judgement, pricing, availability, or approval, Deskie takes the caller's details and sends them through to you.
What if I go over my plan?
Your calls keep getting answered. Core includes 60 answered calls a month, and you can top up anytime if you need more. Monthly calls are used first, then top-ups. Monthly calls reset each billing month. Top-ups last 12 months.
What about wrong numbers and spam calls?
You never pay for them. Deskie only counts a real call: a name, a number, and what they want. Spam, hang-ups, wrong numbers and time-wasters don't count. And if a dud ever slips through, just tell Deskie and the call will be credited straight back.
I already have a receptionist. Is this still useful?
Yes. Deskie backs up your team, covering missed calls, after-hours, overflow, spam, and time-wasters. Your receptionist stays focused on the people in front of them, while Deskie makes sure no enquiry slips through.
Is my data safe?
Yes. We never sell your data. Deskie is an Australian business and handles customer information under our Privacy Policy.
