A typical gig covers mapping the repetitive tasks in your week, building automations that connect your tools and use AI to handle the messy bits (reading emails, drafting replies, categorising data), adding review steps and error alerts, testing with your real data, and a handover so you run it yourself. You also get a plain-English doc for troubleshooting and switching things off.
The repetitive, rules-based ones you do every week: lead enquiries filed into your CRM with a draft follow-up, invoice reminders, booking confirmations, weekly reports compiled from your tools, enquiries sorted and routed to the right person. If a task follows the same steps every time and eats an hour a week, it is a candidate. One-off or judgement-heavy work usually is not.
Most builds run on Zapier, Make or n8n to connect your existing tools, with a model from OpenAI, Anthropic or Google handling the parts that need reading and writing, like summarising an enquiry or drafting a reply. A good freelancer builds on software you already pay for where possible, and recommends the stack off your actual brief, not their preference.
No, and be wary of anyone who pitches it that way. Automation clears the copy-paste admin so your team spends their hours on customers, sales and the judgement calls that actually grow the business. The freelancer builds the workflow, your people stay in control of it, and anything customer-facing keeps a human review step.
A good build assumes it will happen. That means logging so you can see every step the automation took, alerts when something fails, human review on anything that goes to a customer, and a documented off switch. Ask the freelancer how you would pause the whole thing on a Saturday morning; the answer tells you a lot about the build quality.
A single automation can be built and tested in under a week. Mapping and automating several workflows usually takes 2 to 4 weeks, including a test period on real data before it runs unattended. The mapping conversation at the start is the part not to rush.
You do. The automation platform accounts, AI accounts and any scripts should sit in your name, with handover of access and documentation as a stage before the final payment is signed off. Anything touching customer information should run on business-tier accounts with model training on your data switched off.
Write down the repetitive tasks that annoy you most and roughly how long each takes per week, list the tools involved (CRM, inbox, spreadsheets, accounting software), and decide who on your team will own the automations day to day. That is enough for a freelancer to scope the gig and bid accurately.
A scoped automation build in Brisbane typically costs $1,500 to $4,000, with a simple single-workflow setup from around $1,000 and bigger multi-tool builds up to $5,000. Add the monthly cost of the automation platform and AI model, which is usually modest for a small business. The variables are how many workflows you automate and how many tools they touch.
Post an AI automation gig in 60 seconds. Describe the work, set your budget and timeframe, and choose whether it is time-based or outcome-based. Local freelancers send a bid with a quote, you compare their profiles, portfolios and reviews, then pick the one that fits. Posting a gig is free. When you accept a bid, each stage is the freelancer's price, plus GST if they're registered, plus our 5% platform fee (worked out on the price before GST, GST included). A $1,000 stage from a GST-registered freelancer comes to $1,150.
Every gig runs on a payment schedule you both agree on up front, and every payment runs through Stripe. On an outcome-based gig each stage is charged before the work starts and held by Unjumble until sign-off, or until it pays out on its own 14 days after it's submitted. On a time-based gig you're charged for each month as it starts, and it pays out when the next month starts unless you raise an issue.
