Get paid / collect money
Collect unpaid invoices
The money is already on the books. Draft the next ask.

How it's set up
Read what is late. Draft the next note in your voice. Write down who promised when. That is cash coming in, not a new customer. We have the framing. We do not have a collected total from those books.
- 01Connect the invoice list or the mailbox. Xero or Stripe aging if you already use them.
- 02The bot reads what is late. It does not invent a balance.
- 03It drafts the next note in your voice. The next note starts from the last one they sent.
- 04You send. Never on day one without eyes.
- 05Log promises. Mark the row by hand when someone pays. Twice a week, not all day.

How the money works
A client pays an invoice they already owe. The cash hits your bank or Stripe. First $ is one old invoice paid. You are not selling a new thing.
What to try first
A list of late invoices with real numbers from your books. One draft you would send. One promise date written down.
Watch out
- Tokens: do not scan the whole archive every hour.
- Time: a bot that sends on its own can burn a customer you still want.
- Claim: no collected total from those books here.
