Custom software and AI that actually ships.
Rootech does two things well: custom software (websites, booking systems, CMS platforms, touchscreen installations) and AI integrations that quote jobs, chase tenders and answer customers at 2am. Built and live in weeks, not months.
Rootech Solutions is a Melbourne team of engineers with 20+ years of combined experience shipping production software, not a marketing agency that discovered ChatGPT last year.

01 / The problem
You know better software could help. You don't have time to figure out how.
Every week there’s a new tool, a new model, a new “game changer.” Meanwhile you’ve got quotes to send, customers to call back, and invoices to chase.
Most small businesses don’t need a digital strategy. They need three or four specific jobs taken off their plate:
- 01Taking bookings without playing phone tag.
- 02Updating your website without calling a developer.
- 03Turning job details into quotes.
- 04Following up leads and tenders before they go cold.
That’s the inbox at 7am. That’s what we build for. Nothing experimental, nothing that needs babysitting. Working systems plugged into the tools you already use.
02 / What we do
Two things, done properly
We don’t do everything. We build custom software and we build AI integrations: fixed price, live in weeks, plugged into the tools you already run.
01 · Built around how your business actually runs
Custom Software
Websites, booking systems and platforms designed for your workflow, not squeezed into someone else's template. You own it, it grows with you, and it works the way your business works.
- Websites & web appsFast, modern sites that turn visitors into customers.
- Booking systemsCustomers book, pay and reschedule themselves, day or night.
- Content managementUpdate your own site without calling a developer.
- Touchscreen installationsInteractive displays for showrooms, venues and exhibitions.
02 · Working AI plugged into the tools you already use
AI Integrations
AI systems that quote jobs, chase tenders, answer customers and kill the admin pile, wired into your existing software with guardrails, not bolted on as a gimmick.
- AI quoting toolsPlans and job details in, accurate quotes out in minutes.
- AI tender & lead pipelinesFind, qualify and chase opportunities before they go cold.
- Customer service chatbotsTrained on your business, answering around the clock.
- Workflow automationDocuments read, data entered, follow-ups sent. Admin, gone.
Every build comes with the option of an ongoing retainer. Software isn’t set-and-forget: we monitor what we ship, fix issues before you notice them, and keep improving it month after month.

04 / Why Rootech
Why us
- 01
We ship, we don't advise.
Plenty of consultants will sell you an AI roadmap. We build the thing and put it into production. You see working software, not slideware.
- 02
Fixed prices, real timelines.
You know the cost before we start. No hourly billing, no scope surprises.
- 03
Built on real engineering.
Our team brings 20+ years of combined experience building production software across AI, machine learning, and spatial computing, including AI agent systems running live sales pipelines today. This is engineering, not prompt tinkering.
- 04
Honest about limits.
AI can't do everything, and a chatbot giving your customers wrong answers is worse than no chatbot. Everything we build has guardrails, human checkpoints where it matters, and a clear line on what it will and won't do.
05 / FAQ
Fair questions
No. They're two sides of the same job. Plenty of our clients start with one and add the other later: a booking system that grows an AI quoting tool, or a chatbot that leads to a proper website rebuild. We'll tell you honestly which one solves your actual problem first.
Almost certainly. We integrate with the tools small businesses actually run: Xero, HubSpot, ServiceM8, Cliniko, Shopify, Google Workspace and plenty more. If you can log into it, we can probably connect to it.
Hosting for software builds is usually minimal, often under $50 a month. AI integrations add usage costs (typically $20 to $200 a month depending on volume). Either way, we'll give you a realistic running-cost estimate before you commit, and an optional retainer covers monitoring and improvements.
This is the right question to ask, and it's why guardrails are built into every AI integration we ship. Customer-facing systems only answer from your approved information, escalate to a human when unsure, and never make things up about pricing or commitments. Anything involving money or legal commitments keeps a human in the loop.
Most builds ship in two to four weeks. Bigger builds, like a full platform or a multi-screen installation, get a fixed timeline up front, so you know before we start.
No. If you can describe what eats your time, that's all we need. We handle the rest and train your team on anything they need to touch.
The smaller you are, the more each saved hour matters. Every project is scoped and priced fixed, and we start at a size that pays for itself within months for most businesses.
