A voice agent I built · for Melbourne Innovation Centre

Talk to the MIC AI Advisor.

A voice agent that answers small-business questions about MIC, points an owner to the right program, and offers to book a session. It runs on a knowledge base drawn from MIC's public content, in a warm, plain-English manner, the way an advisor would actually talk.

Loading the demo…

Built by Demi Thathsara with ElevenLabs. A demonstration, not an official MIC line. “Book a session” opens my Cal.com. It answers from MIC's public information and will say when it doesn't know something rather than invent it.

What it does

An advisor's first conversation, on call.

Explains the offer — what MIC does, the Digital Solutions program, and the new “AI and emerging technologies” priority area starting 1 July 2026.
Triages the need — asks what the owner does and what's eating their time, then points to the right kind of support.
Books a session — when the caller's keen, it opens the booking page instead of reading out a link.
Stays honest — never quotes a phone number or final price, and offers a human when it's unsure. The "use AI without overstating it" discipline.

Things it answers well.

“What does Melbourne Innovation Centre actually do?”

“Can you help me get started with AI without breaking anything?”

“Am I eligible for the Digital Solutions program?”

“Can I book a session?”

How I built it

A knowledge base, a voice, and one real action.

The agent is grounded in a curated knowledge base from MIC's public content (programs, Digital Solutions, eligibility), given a warm AU-English persona, and wired to a single real action: opening the booking page. No autopilot, no invented facts. It's the same shape of agent I'd help a Digital Solutions client stand up for their own business, which you can hear in the café version, or see planned out across five pillars on the 90-day page.
