Built By Us
We don't just consult — we build and ship real AI products
Thanksm8 helps service businesses collect Google reviews automatically via SMS. Built from scratch by our team, used by real businesses across Australia.
This is the kind of practical AI we implement for our clients — tools that actually make money and save time.
Visit thanksm8.com →Why Smart Labs
Most AI agencies sell you tools and dashboards. We're different.
We're engineers, not resellers
10+ years building real software at companies like EY, Leonardo.Ai (Canva), and SCA. We build custom solutions, not Zapier chains.
We ship our own products
We built Thanksm8 from scratch. We don’t just advise — we build, launch, and support real software.
Websites + AI together
Most AI agencies can’t build you a website. Most web devs don’t understand AI. We do both.
