Talk through the job. TalkTrade does the rest. "Did the service at Smith Street, new Rheem unit, all gas checks passed." That's enough. TalkTrade writes the service report, invoice, or quote. Correctly filled in, professionally worded, pushed to ServiceM8 and Xero.

- Pick the document type
- Describe the job
- Done
Describe the job. Get a service report.
Walk off site. Tell TalkTrade what you did, what you found, what needs follow-up. It writes the complete, professional service report. Not a word-for-word transcript. A properly structured document with enriched descriptions, correct terminology, and clean formatting.
Live across all trades including HVAC, electrical, plumbing, carpentry, painting, and more.
-
1"All checks passed" fills every fieldSay "all service checks passed" and every Pass/Fail field fills itself. Say "everything good except the brakes" and it fills everything except brakes. Blanket statements work.
-
2Corrections work tooRecord a second message. "Actually the handbrake failed." TalkTrade updates just that field. No need to redo the whole report.
-
3Polishes your words into professional sentencesSay "compressor's stuffed, low on gas, topped it up" and the report reads: "Compressor exhibiting reduced performance. Refrigerant levels below specification. System recharged to manufacturer requirements." It doesn't invent details. It cleans up what you said.
ServiceM8, hands free. Voice-fill your custom forms.
TalkTrade plugs into the tools you already use. It pulls your ServiceM8 jobs for the day, voice-fills your custom SM8 forms, and pushes completed PDFs straight onto the job. Doesn't replace your tools. Removes the paperwork friction between them.
Pulls your jobs, fills your forms
TalkTrade reads the custom forms already set up in your ServiceM8 account. Talk through the job and it maps what you said to your existing fields automatically. No re-configuration needed.
Pushes PDFs back onto the job
Completed service reports and documents attach directly to the SM8 job record. One tap. No downloading, renaming, and re-uploading files.
Rough input, professional output

From job description to finished document
Describe the job. Get the paperwork.
Hands-free from start to finish. Tell TalkTrade what happened on the job. No forms, no field-by-field entry.
Talk through the job
However you normally would. Quick notes, a voice message on the drive home, dot points, shorthand, Aussie slang. "Did the service at Smith Street, new Rheem unit, all checks passed, customer wants a follow-up in six months." That's enough.
TalkTrade writes the paperwork
It fills in the fields, structures line items, calculates GST, and polishes your rough notes into professional sentences. "Fixed the leak" becomes "Identified leak on supply line; repaired and tested for integrity." It doesn't invent details. It cleans up what you said.
Glance and send
Branded PDF with your business name, ABN, licence number, and contact details. Push it to ServiceM8, send it to Xero, or email the PDF directly. Done before you've left the site.
What the AI actually does
Trade-aware voice recognition
Say "Daikin seven kilowatt split" or "Clipsal forty amp RCBO" or "PEX to copper via SharkBite." TalkTrade understands trade vocab, spells it correctly, and places it in the right field. 270+ Australian trade terms built in.
Blanket statements work
"All checks passed" fills every Pass/Fail field on the report. "Everything good except the brakes" fills everything except brakes. Say it how you'd say it to a person. TalkTrade figures out the fields.
Corrections work too
Record a follow-up. "Actually the handbrake failed." TalkTrade updates just that field. No need to redo the whole document.
Polishes into professional sentences
"Fixed a leak" becomes "Identified leak on supply line; repaired and tested for integrity." Optional toggle, on by default. It doesn't invent details or fabricate test results. It cleans up what you said.
Branded PDFs, one-time setup
Business name, logo, ABN, licence numbers, contact details. Set it up once. Every document comes out branded and formatted to Australian standards. Looks like you spent an hour on it.
Every document a tradie needs
Service reports, quotes, invoices, variations, purchase orders, SWMS. All voice-fillable, all produce branded PDFs. One app for all of it, not five separate tools.
Describe it once. Get every document.
Paperwork is the invoice after the invoice. TalkTrade generates every document from a single job description. No re-entering details, no copy-pasting between apps.
Quote to Invoice
Job's done? Toggle your quote straight to an invoice. Same line items, same client, same totals. One tap.
Quote to Purchase Order
Hit "Generate From" on a new PO and select your quote. Materials and prices pull straight across. No retyping supplier lists.
Job info to SWMS
Start a SWMS and it pre-fills hazards, risk ratings, and controls based on your trade and the job details you've already described.
Built for tradies on ladders, not at desks
Solo tradies & small teams
Electricians, plumbers, carpenters, painters, HVAC techs, roofers. Anyone who finishes a job and then faces 30 minutes of paperwork. TalkTrade compresses that to 30 seconds of voice on site. Describe the job, get the document.
ServiceM8 users
Already use ServiceM8? TalkTrade pulls your jobs, voice-fills your custom forms, and pushes completed PDFs straight onto the job record. The same forms you already have, now filled by voice instead of tapping through fields.
The partner doing the admin
If you're the one chasing your tradie for job details at 9pm so you can write up the paperwork, TalkTrade means they do it on site, in 30 seconds, before they've packed up the tools. Structured documents, not a voice memo and a scrawled notepad photo.
Everything you need to know
TalkTrade is completely free. No credit card, no trial period, no hidden fees. Download it and start generating documents straight away.
Speech-to-text writes down exactly what you said. TalkTrade understands what you said, fills in the right fields, polishes the wording into professional sentences, calculates GST, and produces a branded PDF. It's the difference between a dictation machine and a tool that actually does the paperwork.
Any trade. Electricians, plumbers, carpenters, painters, tilers, concreters, roofers, landscapers, HVAC, fencing. The AI understands 270+ Australian trade terms across all major trades. Say "Daikin seven kilowatt split" or "Clipsal forty amp RCBO" and it spells them correctly.

No. TalkTrade rephrases what you said into professional sentences. It doesn't invent details or fabricate test results. If you said "fixed a leak", it writes "Identified leak on supply line; repaired and tested for integrity." It won't add specific pressures, measurements, or data you didn't mention. Tradies are on the hook for what's on the PDF. We take that seriously.
Yes. Your business details and pricing data are stored locally on your device. We use industry-standard encryption for any data in transit. Your documents and client details are yours. We don't sell or share your information.
Voice-to-form, available as an API
The engine that powers TalkTrade. Turn spoken descriptions into filled forms. Built for teams adding voice to their own product.
TalkTrade started with tradies, but the technology underneath isn't trade-specific. Voice-to-form-fill works for anyone who needs structured data out of a spoken description. Service workflows, intake forms, inspection reports, customer onboarding. We make the same engine available as an API for teams building voice into their own product.
- Real-time streaming. Watch fields fill as the user speaks. Sub-second latency on a WebSocket.
- Batch and text modes. Send recorded audio or typed text. Same prompt rules, same output shape.
- Schema-flexible. Bring your own form definition. Any field types, any structure, any vertical. Including line-item tables for quotes and invoices.
Currently in early access. We'll send you a link to try the API yourself.
Finish the job. Forget the paperwork.
