CockatooAutomation & AI agents
AI and automation for bore drilling contractors: start with a defined workflow, clear permissions and human review where it matters.
Automation & AI agents
Bore drilling enquiries often come from remote properties and need careful qualifying on location, depth and access before you mobilise. AI tools can answer enquiries, capture site details and water needs, and book a site assessment without you stopping work on the rig.
Automation also helps manage quoting and follow-up across a wide service area, and invoicing once a job wraps. Cockatoo helps you find automation partners who handle enquiries, schedule site visits, and keep quotes and invoices moving while you are out on remote jobs.
Choosing a starting point
A starting workflow for bore drilling contractors could be turning a new job enquiry into a callback, site visit and follow-up quote. Map the current steps and time spent, then test one handoff before connecting the whole process. Keep specialist decisions and commitments with a person unless explicitly approved.
A predictable trigger and next action, such as routing an enquiry or creating a follow-up task.
Check before committing: Connected systems, required fields, duplicate protection and failed-run alerts.
Repeated questions about approved services, locations and how to contact your team.
Check before committing: Accurate source information, unanswered-question handling and human handoff.
A defined overflow or after-hours call flow with a reliable callback or transfer route.
Check before committing: AI disclosure, interruption handling, consent settings and transfer failures.
A narrow task that needs approved tool use or a choice between permitted steps.
Check before committing: Tool permissions, action logs, approval gates and a pause control.
Ask for setup, integration, usage and support costs separately, including limits for busy periods. Confirm data access, retention, monitoring and who maintains the service. A proposal should identify pilot milestones and the conditions for expanding or stopping.

Common questions
Answering and qualifying enquiries on location, depth and access, booking site assessments, and keeping quotes and invoices moving while you are on remote jobs. That captures enquiries you would otherwise miss on the rig.
Yes. Cockatoo helps you find tools that answer enquiries, capture site details and schedule assessments while you are away from the office, so leads do not go cold during long stints on regional jobs.
Use rules when the input and next action are predictable. Consider AI for interpreting text or choosing between approved steps, with a way to check its work. Compare the maintenance and error handling of each approach before buying a platform.
Define which information is necessary, who can access it and where it is retained. Review the provider’s data handling and any use of inputs for model training. Start with approved public information or test data, and use a suitable secure process for sensitive records.
Record a baseline and test the agreed task, exceptions and human handoff. Review correctly completed work, mistakes, usage costs and supervision time. Expansion should depend on those results, with permission limits and a pause control retained.
