The problem it solves

Chasing customers for overdue payments means writing the same reminder letter over and over, tracking who still owes money, and remembering to send it out. It's tedious work that's easy to fall behind on when you're busy running the business.

Who it fits

Finance and accounting teams who send recurring payment reminders to customers.

How it works

  1. Every week the process checks your invoice database for overdue accounts
  2. Days overdue is calculated automatically for each invoice
  3. A personalized reminder letter is generated for every overdue customer
  4. All the letters are bundled into a single file
  5. The file is emailed to your team, ready to send out
What you get

Reminder letters ready without you drafting them

You get polished reminder letters for every overdue account bundled into one file, ready for your team to review and send this week.

What you get

A batch of personalized payment reminder PDFs, delivered by email, ready to send to customers.

What you need

A NocoDB database, an Autype document generation subscription, and an email account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
