Cairns IT Guy Brings AI Integration and Automation to Cairns Businesses

Meet the Cairns AI Guy: the local IT company adding AI agents, AI receptionists and private AI hosted in Australia for Far North Queensland businesses.

CAIRNS, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA, October 7, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Cairns IT Guy, the Cairns IT company founded by Chris McIntyre, now runs as an AI-agent-powered IT company. It combines everyday IT support in Cairns with AI integration and business automation for companies across Far North Queensland and Australia.

Mr McIntyre, known locally as the Cairns AI Guy, says most small businesses are curious about AI but don't know where to start, or whether their data will be safe.

"Businesses in Cairns shouldn't have to call someone in Sydney to get AI working for them," said Mr McIntyre. "We still fix the printers and set up the phones. Now we also build AI agents that take calls after hours, keep data inside Australia and save owners hours every week."

The company offers AI integration and business automation for Cairns industries including tourism, hospitality, trades, medical and professional services:

- AI receptionists that answer calls and enquiries after hours and book jobs in
- AI agents that handle enquiries, email and paperwork
- Business automation that moves data between the systems a business already uses, from Microsoft 365 to accounting and booking software
- Private AI that keeps business data on Australian servers to meet privacy obligations, a key concern for medical, legal and financial clients
- AI training and support so staff can use the tools with confidence

Unlike many AI providers, Cairns IT Guy also runs the IT underneath, from phone systems and networks to Microsoft 365, so the AI connects to the whole business rather than sitting on the side.

The company has deployed VoIP phone systems for businesses across Australia, including national clients, and supports networks and camera systems for local shopping centres. It also builds custom software, including an order platform that has run a distribution company's ordering for over a year.

"Every business owner I talk to asks the same thing: where does AI actually fit in my business?" said Mr McIntyre. "My job is to answer that in plain English, then build it, support it and make sure it works with everything else they run."

Cairns IT Guy provides AI integration, business automation, AI receptionists and IT support to businesses in Cairns and across Far North Queensland, with on-site work locally and remote support Australia-wide.
