What each vendor's site says
Taken from each vendor's own website, checked 26 Oct 2026. The wording is shortened, and the source link has the full text. We haven't checked company ownership against ASIC or the ABN register. A Pty Ltd name, an ABN or an Australian address shows a company is registered or based here. It doesn't show who owns it.

How did you check?
We read each vendor's own website (home, about, terms and contact pages) on 26 Oct 2026 and noted what each one says. We haven't checked ownership against ASIC or ABN Lookup records.
Does Australian owned mean my data stays in Australia?
No. Where data is stored is a separate question. Of these 28 vendors, 7 mention Australia in what they say about data hosting: AiDial, Frontly, Reel AI, Chime Labs, TalkMate, Call Assistant, AI Call Centre. See Australian data hosting for the details.
Why isn't a vendor I know on the list?
We only list vendors whose own site says they're Australian or gives Australian company details. Of the 30 vendors we track, 2 aren't Australian by their own sites: Hey Jodie, RingCentral AI Receptionist. If a vendor is missing, it may be one we don't track yet.
