AI assistants

The best AI in the world, running your day in ONARA.

Claude and ChatGPT are built by multi-billion-dollar companies with thousands of people working on nothing else. No job management software's built-in AI will ever come close. So we didn't build a smaller one. We opened ONARA up to theirs.

Start free

Every trade software company is now bolting an AI assistant onto its product and charging extra for it. They are all small. The two assistants most people already have on their phone are made by companies that spend more in a week than any trade software company earns in a year, and they get better every month without anyone at the software company lifting a finger.

ONARA Ops connects to them. You add ONARA as a connector in Claude or ChatGPT, sign in once, and from then on you ask your assistant in your own words. Your assistant does the thinking; ONARA does what it is asked. There is no AI charge from us, because we aren't running the AI: your assistant's own plan is.

“What's on tomorrow, and who's free?”
“Who owes me money over 30 days?”
“Book a gutter clean for Sarah Jones at 12 Smith St next Tuesday at 9, and put Liam on it.”
“Draft a quote for the Henderson job: 3 hours labour at $95 and a new downpipe at $140.”
“Add a note to the Harris job: the customer wants a call before we arrive.”
“Which quotes are still out with customers?”

What it can do

It gets the same reach in ONARA that your login has, and no more. A crew login with its own jobs only can ask about those jobs and the schedule, move a stage and add notes, and nothing else.

  • Look up customers, jobs, the schedule, money owed and quotes waiting
  • Raise a job and book it, with the crew on it by name
  • Add a note to a job's diary for the whole team to see
  • Add a customer
  • Draft a quote or an invoice with its lines, for you to check
  • Tell you who's free on a day, and who's on leave

What it never does

An assistant that could text your customer or send an invoice from a misheard sentence would be a liability, not a help. So everything that leaves the building stays with a person.

  • Never sends a quote, invoice or message to a customer
  • Never takes a payment or touches your billing
  • Never marks a job done, cancels it or puts it on hold
  • Never deletes anything
  • Every draft waits in ONARA for a person to check and send

Everything it does is on the record

Each change is written in your activity log and the job's diary as you, via Claude or via ChatGPT, so the office always knows what the chat did. The owner sees every connection on the account and can switch any of them off. You can disconnect yours at any time.

Setting it up takes two minutes

Settings, then AI assistants, shows the address to paste and the steps. In Claude: Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector, paste, Connect, sign in to ONARA, Allow. Claude works on every plan including the free one, and once set up on the website it works in the Claude app on your phone, by voice if you like. In ChatGPT it needs a paid plan with Developer mode switched on, and the steps are on the same page.

Questions, answered

Why not build your own AI into ONARA like the others?

Because ours would be worse than theirs, and we'd have to charge you for it. Claude and ChatGPT improve every month with no work from us, and most people already pay for one. Connecting ONARA to them gives you a far better assistant for nothing extra.

Can it send a quote or text a customer?

No, and that's deliberate. It drafts quotes and invoices and books work, but anything that goes to a customer or moves money is sent by a person from ONARA. It also can't mark a job done, cancel it, put it on hold, or delete anything.

Does it see everything in my account?

It sees exactly what the login that connected it can see. The owner's connection reaches the whole business. A crew login's connection reaches only the jobs that person is on. Money settings, billing and payments are never reachable from an assistant.

What does it cost?

Nothing from ONARA. It is part of ONARA Ops at $49 a month flat. The AI itself runs on your own Claude or ChatGPT plan; Claude's free plan is enough.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes with Claude: set it up once on claude.ai and the Claude app on your phone has it, including by voice. ChatGPT's connectors are on the website only for now.

Is my data used to train the AI?

ONARA sends your assistant only what it asks for in that conversation, and nothing to anyone else. How your assistant handles its own conversations is set by your Claude or ChatGPT account and its privacy settings, the same as anything else you type into it.
