Get paid without the awkward chase.

Patricia watches your QuickBooks or Xero for overdue invoices, drafts the reminder in your voice, and follows up on a schedule until it is paid. You approve, she sends, cash comes in, and nobody has to write the uncomfortable email.

What lands in #brightside-finance every Monday, without anyone opening the accounting tool:

@Pati send the Northwind and Meridian reminders. Hold Acme, I'll call them.

PatriciaAppJust now

Sent, both in your voice with the invoice and a pay link. Acme is on hold and flagged for your call. That leaves £4,200 outstanding, and I'll follow up again in 5 days if the other two are still open.

How agencies do this today.

The work is done, the invoice is out, and getting paid comes down to whether someone remembers to nag, again.

The invoice that aged out

It hit 30 days, then 60, because chasing it meant writing an awkward email and everyone had better things to do.

The founder as debt collector

The owner ends up personally chasing clients they want to keep happy, at the exact moment they least want to push.

The cash-flow blind spot

Nobody can say off the top of their head how much is overdue and by how long, until payroll week makes it urgent.

What it looks like when she owns it.

Invoice chasing task in Patricia: a scheduled task that checks QuickBooks for overdue invoices every Monday, drafts reminders in the agency voice, and posts them for approval, with recent runs listed

Setup

Running in minutes, then it's hers.

Step 1

Add Patricia to Slack

She joins your workspace like any teammate. Two minutes, no engineering.

Step 2

Connect QuickBooks or Xero

One click, so she can see which invoices are out, which are overdue, and by how long.

Step 3

Set the cadence and tone

When the first reminder goes out, how often to follow up, and the voice to write in. She drafts every reminder that way.

Step 4

You approve, she chases

Each week she posts the overdue list with reminders ready to send. You OK them, she sends and follows up until it is paid.

What she takes off your plate.

Real behavior of the skill, not a feature list.

Knows what is overdue, always

She reads QuickBooks or Xero so anyone can ask what is outstanding and by how long, without opening the books.

Writes the awkward email for you

Polite, firm and in your voice, with the invoice and a pay link attached, so nobody has to draft it from scratch.

Chases on a schedule

First reminder, follow-up, final notice, on the cadence you set, so an invoice never quietly ages out again.

You stay in control

She drafts and posts for approval. You send with a click, or hold the ones you would rather handle yourself.

Escalates before it hurts

When an invoice crosses your line she flags it for a call, so the founder is not the surprise debt collector.

No per-seat AR tool

Chasing invoices is one thing Patricia does, not a separate subscription and login the team forgets.

FAQ

Invoice chasing, answered.

How does Patricia know what is overdue?

She connects to QuickBooks or Xero and reads your invoices directly, so she always knows what is out, what is overdue, and by how many days, without anyone updating a sheet.

Does she send emails without me?

Only if you want. By default she drafts every reminder and posts it for a one-click send, so you stay in control of tone and timing. You can also let her auto-send the gentle first nudge and approve the firmer ones.

Can I keep it in my own voice?

Yes. She learns your tone from the first few and writes every reminder that way, polite and firm, with the invoice and a pay link attached.

What happens if a client still does not pay?

She follows up on the cadence you set and escalates when an invoice crosses your threshold, flagging it for a call so it does not quietly age past 60 days.

Is this all Patricia does?

No. Chasing invoices is one job. The same teammate handles client reporting, meeting recaps, and the rest of the work agencies hand her, all in the same Slack.

One of the jobs agencies hand her. See more finance use cases or browse them all.

Everybody deserves a Patricia.

She handles the mess. You keep the clients. See what changes in your first week.
