Transport / charter

CoachSydney — a transport business that runs on AI

The brief. Stand up a real, revenue-grade coach & charter business online — not a brochure site, but a system that quotes, books, dispatches, and answers customers around the clock.

The problem

Charter transport runs on phone calls and email quotes. That means missed calls, slow quotes, no after-hours coverage, and a language barrier with Sydney's international and tourism market. A traditional build for all of this would run A$80k+ over several months.

What we built

  • Live price & quote engine — instant fares from the Google Routes API, with vehicle types, distance tiers, tolls and surcharges, all editable from an admin panel.
  • Online booking + admin dispatch — bookings, driver allocation, GPS-tracking schema, and GST invoicing, backed by Supabase.
  • AI agents on three channels — 'Jen' answers website chat and WhatsApp; 'Sydney' answers the phone through an AI voice line. Customers get answered 24/7.
  • Five languages — English, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Arabic — to serve Sydney's tourism and corporate market natively.
  • Built-in SEO — five service landing pages, a 20-question FAQ, and analytics.

The outcome

A small transport operator now runs with the toolset of a national booking platform — instant quotes, 24/7 multilingual answering, and online booking — delivered in weeks at a fixed price, not months at agency rates.
