Empowering Australian Business Since 1999
We're not just another tech company. We're a bootstrapped, Melbourne-based venture with over 25 years of experience helping small businesses leverage technology to compete and win.
Our Story
FirstLine AI was born from a simple observation: small businesses were being left behind in the digital revolution.
Founded in 1999 by Kelton Dennis, we started as a part-time venture helping local Melbourne businesses get online. Back then, having a website was revolutionary. Today, it's AI-powered customer engagement.
Over 25 years, we've watched technology evolve—and we've evolved with it. But our mission has remained constant: make cutting-edge technology accessible and affordable for small businesses.
We're not venture-backed. We're not chasing unicorn valuations. We're a bootstrapped business that understands the challenges you face because we've faced them ourselves.
Today, we specialize in AI chatbots because we believe they're the most powerful tool available for small businesses to compete with larger competitors. Our chatbots work 24/7, never take a day off, and capture leads while you sleep.
