where sprigr fits

Where Sprigr fits

Sprigr runs the admin Avoca doesn't touch.

  • SWMS & compliance packs

    Every new job triggers a SWMS or JSA pack assembled from the scope, site hazards, and crew details. Filed to the customer job record automatically. Avoca doesn't do this; its focus is on the phone call.

  • Variation drafts from site notes

    When a site variation is logged in simPRO, Sprigr drafts the variation notice against your rate card and lands it in the ops lead's inbox for sign-off. No more unbilled variations three weeks after the job.

  • Supplier & PO chasers

    Parts on backorder? Supplier gone quiet on a delayed pick? Sprigr reads supplier email threads, follows up on ETAs, and pings your office. Back-office chasing that Avoca's voice-AI doesn't touch.

  • Compliance records filed

    Certificates of compliance, backflow tests, CES, test & tag, filed to the customer job record automatically. Renewals flagged to the office 60 to 90 days before expiry so nothing lapses.

  • Overdue invoice flags to the owner

    Invoices aging past terms flagged to the owner with job, customer, and amount. Sprigr doesn't email or call the customer; it surfaces what's slipping so you can decide whether to chase, escalate, or write off.

  • Per-tenant data isolation

    Every Sprigr customer gets isolated per-tenant infrastructure. No shared databases. Encrypted credentials. Complete audit trails for every agent action.

where avoca ai fits

Where Avoca stays the right tool

Avoca is purpose-built for customer-facing voice. Sprigr doesn't replace that.

  • You want AI answering inbound calls

    If 24/7 inbound call answering is what you're after, Avoca is purpose-built for that. Sprigr deliberately doesn't answer customer calls; if customer-voice AI is the gap, Avoca fills it.

  • Customer-facing AI is the priority

    Avoca focuses on the customer-facing side: phone, text, chat. If your customer comms are the admin burden, Avoca is the right tool. Sprigr focuses on everything behind the conversation.

  • You already have back-office admin covered

    If your office is well-staffed for paperwork, compliance, supplier chasing, and back-office reporting, and your only gap is phones, Avoca solves the specific problem. Sprigr solves the opposite problem.

questions

Questions

Is Sprigr a replacement for Avoca?

No. Avoca handles customer-facing voice AI (inbound calls, lead follow-up). Sprigr handles back-office admin (SWMS, compliance, supplier chasers, variation drafts, reconciliation, overdue flags to the owner). They solve opposite problems; some businesses use both.

Does Sprigr answer phones or talk to customers?

Yes, where you allow it. Customer comms, phone, email, text, replies can run through Sprigr as well: it drafts each message from your records, the message waits behind an approval gate until someone on your team taps send, and routine ones can run on a standing approval once you trust them. The back office (paperwork, supplier chasers, compliance, variations, internal reporting) runs without the tap.

Can Sprigr and Avoca run together?

Yes. If you already have Avoca handling the phones and want back-office admin covered, Sprigr fits alongside. Avoca handles the call; Sprigr handles the paperwork that spins out of the call.

Which is better for a small trade business?

If your pain is unanswered phones, Avoca. If your pain is paperwork, compliance, supplier chasing, and variation admin, Sprigr. They target different bottlenecks in the trade back office.
