Hi, I need a quote for a rear extension. Can someone come and look?

Of course. I can book a free survey. Would Thursday at 10 or Friday at 2 suit you better?

New to AI?

That’s exactly who we help.

Most of our customers have never used AI and aren’t sure they trust it. That’s fine. You don’t need to understand it, change how you work or buy anything new.

Nothing to learn

We set everything up and it works through the phone, text and email you already use. If you can read a text message, you can use Tidetree.

Low cost, low risk

From £39 a month with no setup fee. If it isn’t helping after 3 months, you walk away.

Helps your team, doesn’t replace it

It takes the boring admin off your plate so you and your staff have more time for customers. People stay in charge.

You approve what matters

Quotes, posts and messages go out only when you’re happy. Anything it can’t handle comes straight to you.

What we do

Practical help, not just AI chatbots.

Pick one thing to start. Add more when it pays for itself.

Never miss a call

An AI receptionist answers when you can’t, takes the details and texts them to you. Your number stays the same.

About
“The tools big companies use are now affordable for the shops and trades on our own high street.”

Hi, I’m Tom. I live in Leigh. I’ve spent my career in technology, helping businesses put data, software and AI to work. I named Tidetree after our estuary: the tide that shapes Leigh, and the trees of Two Tree Island just offshore. You deal with me, not a call centre.

Questions

Questions people ask.

I’m not techy. Will I manage?

Yes. We set everything up and it works through the phone, text and email you already use.

Will AI replace my staff?

No. It takes the repetitive admin away so your team has more time for customers. People stay in charge.

Will my customers know it’s AI?

Yes. It says so at the start of every call. Most people just appreciate being answered.

Do I keep my phone number?

Yes. Calls you can’t answer pass to the assistant. You still pick up when you can.

What if it gets something wrong?

It only uses information you’ve approved, and anything it can’t handle becomes a callback for you. We check how it’s doing every month.

What about my customers’ data?

We collect only what’s needed to help the caller, and sign a data agreement with every client.
