Mining
DMRE paperwork, mining right renewals, SLP commitments, shift reports, incidents.
Private beta · built for South Africa
Tell Varo what happened. It writes it up, files it, and reminds you before SARS does.
Varo is an admin assistant for South African mining, accounting, real estate and services businesses. Talk to it the way you'd talk to a competent colleague — it keeps track of deadlines, writes things up properly, and remembers what happened.
Compliance paperwork isn't the job. It's what keeps you from the job.
Every SARS deadline, CIPC filing, and site report takes time away from actually running the business. Miss one and it doesn't just cost time — it costs money.
How it works
-
1
Tell it what happened
Type it, speak it, send a WhatsApp voice note, or say it over the phone.
-
2
It writes it up and files it
A proper filed record — not a blank form staring back at you.
-
3
It remembers and reminds you
Before the deadline bites, not after.
What it handles
- Turns what you tell it — typed, spoken, or phoned in — into a properly filed record
- Tracks statutory deadlines and reminds you before they're due
- Keeps a searchable history: "what happened with that client last month?"
- Drafts follow-ups for outstanding client documents and unpaid invoices — a human reads and sends them
- Exports a filed report as PDF or Word, and client or invoice lists as Excel
- Saves a report to your own Google Drive, or emails it via your own Gmail, if you connect your account
Built for South Africa. Not adapted for it.
That's the real differentiator, not a tagline. Varo knows SARS, CIPC, FICA, POPIA, VAT201, DMRE, and the deadlines that actually carry penalties here. A generic AI assistant built for a US business does not.
Set up for your kind of business

Real estate
FICA onboarding, deal and transfer tracking, conveyancing dates, listings.
Software & services
Customers, unpaid invoices, what was said on a call.
Where things actually stand
- It's a private beta. You need an invite code to sign up.
- Agents draft, humans send. Nothing reaches your customers without a person approving it first. That's a deliberate design decision — you stay in control.
- Mercial is an assistant, not your accountant. It doesn't replace professional advice.
- Pricing isn't set yet. We're not going to dodge that — it just isn't finalised.
