↗ Nixer in plain terms

The quick answers.

What is Nixer?

Nixer is an AI-first agency that builds websites, apps and AI agents for small and medium businesses worldwide. It is run by Carl Coates and based in Ireland.

What does Nixer build?

Custom AI agents built around how a business works, modern websites and web apps, a paid AI Readiness Assessment to find where AI fits, a guided course for building your own agent, and a ready-made AI voice receptionist (Nixer Intelligence).

How do I get started?

Book an AI Readiness Assessment (€250): one conversation with Carl and a personalised report within one working day. Booking is free and done through Calendly.

Where is Nixer based, and who does it work with?

Ireland, working with clients worldwide. Most are owner-run trades, service and professional businesses, plus regulated firms such as Irish lenders.

↗ The Nixer AI Assessment

↗ What clients say
“I went into the call with Carl thinking his AI readiness report wouldn't apply to us. We already build and automate with AI constantly, so I figured the assessment would tell me things I already knew. I was wrong within the first few minutes. The chat with Carl was quick and genuinely enjoyable, and I had a lot to sit with before the report even arrived. Then the report landed, and the depth of it was on another level, far beyond what I expected. It made me question how and why I operate the way I do, and gave me real ideas for changing habits I didn't even realise were holding me back. I can't recommend his AI readiness assessment enough, it genuinely changed the way I think and work.”

Answers in your name

A natural Irish voice greets the caller in your business's name, understands what they need, and never sounds like a robot.

Straight to your diary

Books the job

It doesn't just take a message, it books the work into your calendar, live, while the customer is still on the line.

Never a black box

Full transcript, every call

The caller's name, number, request and booked time land in your inbox, with a full transcript of exactly what was said.

No heat, a leak, flooding

Spots emergencies

It flags urgent jobs as high priority and can alert you straight away, so you can ring back fast when it matters.

Your rules, your patch

Filters the work

Tell it which jobs to book, which to politely decline, and which to just take a message for. You stay in control.

Evenings, weekends, bank holidays

Works 24/7

Out-of-hours callers get looked after and booked in instead of hitting voicemail, and calling a competitor.

Does it replace my business phone number?

No. Your number stays exactly as it is and rings as normal. Nixer only picks up the calls you'd have missed anyway, when you're up a ladder, under a sink, or on another job.

What if a caller has a strong accent or talks fast?

It's built for everyday phone conversation, not a script. If it ever genuinely can't follow what's needed, it takes a clear message and flags it for you rather than guessing, so nothing gets lost.

How does it fit with how I already take bookings?

It books straight into a diary and emails you the caller's name, number, request and booked time with a full transcript. Setup is tailored to however you currently run your bookings, not a one-size-fits-all box.

What happens with an emergency call, like no heat or a leak?

It's told what counts as urgent for your trade, flags those calls as high priority, and can alert you straight away so you can ring back fast.

What does it cost?

Pricing starts from €49/month. The platform page has the full breakdown, usage is based on call minutes, so it scales with how busy you are.
