Solais

Search has splintered and Google is no longer the only place people get answers from. Solais monitors your visibility across the AI platforms your customers are already using – then shows you exactly how to get found on all of them.

ENGAGE

Voodu

Your best salesperson, available 24/7. Voodu is an AI chatbot agent trained on your website and brand – talking with visitors by text or voice, answering questions, pointing them to the right content and driving action while you sleep.

“Maiple, Solais and Voodu provide the perfect entry point for SME’s to access and try some of the worlds leading AI tools in a one stop, supported ecosystem”

Neil Mason Managing Director

Most SMEs don’t have the time to work out which AI tools matter, the budget to run three subscriptions that don’t talk to each other, or the headcount to prompt them properly. So AI either doesn’t happen, or it happens in fragments – a ChatGPT account, a freelancer experimenting, nobody quite sure what it’s costing.

Folding Maiple, Solais and Voodu into a marketing retainer takes all of that off your desk. One team set it up. One team runs it. One team explains why the numbers moved.

You get content that sounds like your brand, visibility in the places people now search, and a website that answers its own visitors. We get to do our best work, on one business, over time – which is the point of a retainer in the first place.

“Maiple, Solais and Voodu provide the perfect entry point for SME’s to access and try AI tools in a supported ecosystem”

Neil Mason Managing Director

Traditional AI adoption requires managing multiple vendors, navigating complex integrations, and hoping for ROI. Our suite gives you everything in one ecosystem – creation, visibility, and conversion – all Australian-built, Australian-supported, and ready to scale with your business.

Unlike piecemeal AI tools that leave you managing subscriptions, prompt engineering, and brand consistency across platforms, our suite works as a unified system. Your brand voice, visual identity, and strategic positioning flow seamlessly from content creation through search optimization to customer conversion.
