WA · AWST
Perth, in one paragraph
Perth is two hours behind Sydney in winter and three in summer. That is real: a customer support team in Perth is picking up at 2pm when the Sydney queue is spiking at 4pm or 5pm. Our head office runs AWST, so customer enablement and support are available during Perth business hours, not just as an after-thought. 08 numbers cover Perth, Fremantle, Joondalup, and regional WA. Data still lives in Sydney (there is no AWS region in Perth), but the 58ms transit is invisible to callers.

Data residency
Still Sydney-hosted, still 58ms away
Perth is 58 milliseconds of fibre away from the Sydney data centre. On a phone call that is inaudible: the audio network buffers four times that in normal operation. Transcripts and recordings still live in Supabase on AWS ap-southeast-2. Your caller in Perth stays on Australian infrastructure from phone pickup to database write.
FAQ
Questions Perth buyers ask
There is no AWS region in Perth. The nearest compliant Australian data centre is Sydney (ap-southeast-2). Putting compute in Perth would mean leaving AWS, which breaks the SOC 2 trail and the APRA compatibility. The 58ms transit is invisible on a voice call.
Yes. Our head office is in Perth, Western Australia. When WA businesses email support during AWST hours the reply comes from a Perth-based engineer, not an east-coast handover. Most bugs are diagnosed the same morning.
Yes. 08 covers Perth, Fremantle, Mandurah, Bunbury, Geraldton, and Kalgoorlie. For FIFO operations we can issue multiple 08 numbers bound to one flow so each site has a local pickup number.
