82% of business failures involve cash flow problems — and a primary cause is clients who don't pay on time. The average freelancer loses $6,000/year to late or uncollected invoices. Most of that money IS collectible. CollectBot fixes this with a systematic, tone-adaptive approach: the right message, at the right time, delivered with the right firmness. ## What's included - **5-tier escalation system** — Tier 0 (0-7d warm reminder), Tier 1 (8-21d professional follow-up), Tier 2 (22-45d formal notice), Tier 3 (46-90d final demand), Tier 4 (90+d recovery assessment with small-claims prep + writeoff documentation) - **Send-ready messages** — every output is an actual email / formal letter / phone call script with your client name + invoice number + amount + prior contact history; not advice - **Friendly reminders that don't feel automated** - **Formal notices with complete contact history documentation** - **Final demand letters (small-claims ready)** — state-aware - **Payment plan proposals + agreement templates** - **Phone call scripts with objection handling** - **Dispute response packages with evidence checklists** - **Small claims preparation guides** — state-aware - **Client intelligence** — behavioral profiles per client (typical payment patterns, communication style, slow-payer vs flight risk); by invoice #3 with same client, CollectBot knows their patterns - **Dispute detection** — when signals suggest withholding due to dispute, pivots to resolution mode (escalating before resolving creates legal liability) - **AR Dashboard** — portfolio view with total outstanding, tier distribution, highest-priority actions ## Limitations - **Not a payment processor** — generates collection messages; payment flows through your existing rails (Stripe, ACH, bank transfer) - **Not a collections agency** — drafts and tracks; if it goes to a third-party collector, that's a separate engagement - **Not legal counsel** — small-claims prep is informational; high-value collection actions need a collections attorney - **U.S.-state-aware** for small claims + collections law — Canadian + UK collections differ - **Single-business scope** by default — agencies + freelancers with multiple LLCs run per-entity sessions ## Best fit Freelancers (designers, devs, writers, photographers), creative + digital agencies, service contractors (HVAC, landscaping, cleaning, trades), consultants, coaches — anyone who invoices clients and sometimes waits too long. Especially valuable for solo operators who hate the awkwardness of chasing payment — the tier-appropriate language removes the emotional friction and dramatically improves collection rates.
