Cassandra Cadorin, the Griffith-based founder of CanTicket, has used a feature in The Irrigator to explain the thinking behind her business operations platform and where she sees the market heading as artificial intelligence reshapes how service teams work.
Cassandra built CanTicket out of frustration that businesses need three software programs and a spreadsheet to answer four questions: how long did it take, how much did it cost, who's accountable, and where did it go wrong. The platform brings quoting, task tracking, time management and invoicing into a single tool for agencies and service-based teams, and Cassandra says it integrates natively into Xero, consolidating timesheets, staff, quotes, projects and client work in one place.
Central to the piece is Cassandra's view on tracking AI usage alongside human work. She says CanTicket is the market's only platform that explicitly tracks real-time human output directly beside AI usage, letting businesses connect their own API keys to monitor automated token costs alongside human labour. Her reasoning is tied to a broader prediction: Cassandra expects a global price increase as tech companies move to make a profit on currently subsidised AI costs, and she argues businesses will need to track their AI consumption more closely as that shift arrives.
Cassandra is clear about how she frames the platform's monitoring. She describes it as accountability rather than surveillance, telling The Irrigator "It's not Big Brother" and explaining that there is no installation, so it does not track data other than work-related activity.
The article situates Cassandra's work within her wider record as a regional entrepreneur. She also founded Candid Marketing, a digital agency headquartered in Griffith, and created CanTicket during the pandemic in part to retain her staff and give them something to work on after her tourism business was affected by COVID-19. Her focus now is on giving lean, service-based teams a single view of their costs, their people and, increasingly, their AI. It is a practical answer to a question Cassandra sees more businesses about to face.
