AI ops for Thornbury bakeries. Run the admin, not the other way around.
Calso answers the calls Thornbury bakeries miss, answers questions from your own website and Google listing, and texts you the message. From $99 a month.
Thornbury's got a tight hospitality vibe. The High Street draws regulars from Preston, Northcote, and Coburg, and weekends bring families hunting weekend breakfast and something fresh to take home. You're competing with a handful of other good spots, which means consistency and reliability matter—and so does being visible online. The catering side is steady but unpredictable: corporate orders, kids' parties, local events. It's the kind of work that pays well but eats admin time if you're not careful.

How Calso helps a Thornbury bakery
Where Calso fits: the phone.
Answers the calls you miss
Forward the calls you don't pick up to your Calso number. Callers still dial your usual number, and you keep it.
Answers the usual questions
Hours, menu, dietaries, parking and policies, answered from your own website, Google listing and setup interview.
Takes table bookings
If you take bookings, Calso takes them on the call and keeps them in your Calso dashboard. It does not write into another booking system.
Texts you what needs you
Functions, catering, big groups and callbacks: the caller's name, number and what they need, texted to you straight away.
Says it's an AI if asked
It never pretends to be a person, and if it doesn't know something it doesn't guess: it takes a message.
What it doesn't do: it doesn't order stock, reconcile invoices, reply to reviews, post to social media or build rosters, and it doesn't record calls.
