Dareena is the AI voice platform that doesn't just answer calls — it resolves them. Built on proprietary integration infrastructure that competitors would take 12+ months to replicate.
75% of callers who can't reach a business on the first attempt never call back. For a trade business receiving 30 calls a day, that's potentially 8–10 missed jobs per day — at $400+ per job.
The legacy solution — human answering services — charges $1.50–$3.00 per call, only takes messages, and introduces delays that kill conversion. They're expensive, passive, and broken.
US, AU, UK and NZ combined. Trades, medical, legal, and property management are the highest-converting verticals — all high call volume, high job value.
Every major voice AI platform stops at conversation. Nobody has built the PBX integration layer that makes agents actually resolve calls. That's Dareena's position.
The market is not speculative — it's mid-adoption. Businesses are actively looking for this solution now, not in 3 years. The timing is optimal for a first-mover with real infrastructure.
Any developer can spin up a voice agent in a weekend using Retell AI or ElevenLabs. Nobody can replicate what sits underneath Dareena: a custom-built MCP proxy that bridges voice AI to real-world business infrastructure.
This is not a software feature — it's 18 months of telecom engineering expertise encoded into infrastructure. It requires understanding SIP trunking, PBX internals, codec handling, DTMF detection, and failure-state management simultaneously.
Our estimate: 12–18 months for a well-funded competitor to reach parity. By then, Dareena will have case studies, integrations, and a template library that create compounding lock-in.
Projections based on conservative SMB subscription growth and 3 MSP partner relationships by Month 12. MSP channel is the primary lever — 1 partner contract significantly accelerates Year 2.
The platform is built and proven. This raise funds the commercial acceleration — landing the first MSP partnerships, onboarding the first 20 paying clients, and hardening the infrastructure for scale.
We're seeking 3–5 aligned angel investors. Preference for those with networks in NZ/AU/US SaaS, telco, or MSP ecosystems. Equity stake negotiable — reach out for a term sheet conversation.
2024–2025 saw LLM voice models reach human-parity latency and naturalness. The technology is ready for mainstream business deployment. The window is now.
Legacy answering service contracts are lapsing. Business owners are Googling "AI phone answering" in real numbers. Demand is pull, not push.
Every major voice AI platform focuses on conversation quality. The integration layer — the part that actually resolves calls — remains unbuilt by everyone except us.
Managed service providers know their clients want AI voice. They can't build the integration. They're looking for exactly what Dareena is — a white-label platform they can plug into tomorrow.
We're having initial conversations now. Request the full investor deck, a live demo, or a confidential call to discuss terms.
