AI-powered emails

Claude writes personalized, professional reminders that match your tone, brand, and customer relationship.

Five-stage reminder sequence, every email needs your approval

Courtesy heads-up before the due date, then a five-stage reminder sequence from day 3 to day 30. Each reminder is drafted by AI and queued in your inbox with one-click Approve, Edit, or Skip buttons. Nothing reaches a customer until you say yes.

You're always in control

Nothing is sent until you're ready. Review your imported invoices, preview exactly what your customers will receive, choose which overdue invoices to follow up on, and go live on your terms. Pause any invoice or stop all emails at any time from your dashboard.

Reads replies, pauses on disputes, flags resend requests

Every customer reply is read and classified — disputes, questions, payment promises, and resend requests. The sequence pauses on its own and you get a notification with the detected intent so you can decide the next step.

Dispute & pause management

Disputes pause reminders and notify you instantly. Questions pause for 3 days, "will pay" promises for 14 — then prompt you to resume when the pause window ends.

Payment verification & receipts

When payment is detected on your next sync, the reminder sequence stops. Your customer gets a branded payment receipt confirming the amount and date.

Create & deliver invoices

Create invoices directly in Unpaid — they sync to your accounting software and the delivery email arrives with your logo, branding, and Xero/QuickBooks/Stripe payment link. You approve each delivery email by default; auto-send is an opt-in setting once you trust the drafts.

Weekly digest

Every Monday, get a summary of collections, reminders sent, pending actions, and email deliverability health.

Customer payment-risk scoring

Each customer's score combines PTRS data (Australian Government Payment Times Reports Register) with their payment history in your account. Use the scores to prioritise follow-ups on the customers most likely to miss the next due date.

Day 14 reminder ready for Acme Corp — $4,200.00
Day 14 — Firm Reminder

Hi Michael,

I hope this message finds you well. I'm writing regarding invoice #INV-2024-089 for $4,200.00, which was due on January 28th.

I understand things can get busy, but I'd appreciate it if you could arrange payment at your earliest convenience...

Relationship alert: Acme Corp is a long-term customer (12 invoices, always pays within 21 days). Consider a softer tone for this reminder.

Pause and escalation safeguards

Unpaid flags when a customer was recently contacted, when a trusted client might find a late-stage reminder aggressive, or when someone's getting too many emails. So you never look unprofessional.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Unpaid

Connect your accounting software in about 60 seconds. You can create invoices directly in Unpaid — they sync to your accounting software and your customers receive them with your branding and payment link, just like normal. Or keep creating invoices in Xero or QuickBooks and we'll sync them. You can also just BCC us on your invoice emails — no integrations needed. Your first reminders can go out within minutes.

Unpaid imports your invoices but doesn't send anything yet. You'll see a Go Live screen where you can review what's been imported, preview the exact emails your customers will receive, and choose which overdue invoices you want to follow up on. You can also hold overdue reminders for 24 hours if you want time to double-check. Nothing goes out until you're completely ready.

No problem. Just add your unique Unpaid BCC address when emailing invoices to customers. Our AI reads the email and any PDF attachments, extracts the invoice details, and starts tracking it automatically.

Emails are sent from your name and read like personal, hand-written messages — but you are always the human in the loop. AI drafts each reminder based on the customer and the invoice; you preview and approve every one before it sends. The result is professional, on-brand mail that you stand behind.

When a customer clicks "I've Paid", Unpaid pauses the reminder sequence and starts watching for the payment in your Xero, QuickBooks, or Stripe data. Once it lands, your customer gets a branded payment receipt, you get a "Payment Verified" notification, and the sequence stays closed. If the payment can't be verified after 3 days, you get notified so you can decide whether to send a polite follow-up.

Our AI detects dispute intent in customer replies and auto-pauses reminders for 7 days. You're notified immediately with the customer's message so you can resolve it directly. Reminders only resume once you're ready.

It starts before the invoice is even due — Unpaid sends a friendly courtesy reminder a couple of days before the due date so your client has time to arrange payment. If they miss it, a 5-stage overdue sequence kicks in: Day 3 (friendly nudge), Day 7 (follow-up), Day 14 (firm reminder), Day 21 (urgent), and Day 30 (final notice). Every stage is drafted by AI and queued in your inbox with Approve / Edit / Skip buttons — nothing reaches your customer until you say yes.

Yes — whether or not you've connected an accounting software. If Xero, QuickBooks, or Stripe is connected, invoices you create in Unpaid sync to your accounting software automatically and arrive with your usual payment link and branding. If you're using Unpaid via BCC only (no accounting software connected), the invoice lives in Unpaid and goes directly to your customer with your logo and branding. Either way, every invoice gets an AI-crafted delivery email and immediately enters the reminder pipeline. You can keep creating invoices in your accounting software too — Unpaid picks them up on the next sync.

Unpaid's AI reads every customer reply. If someone asks for the invoice again, it's flagged and a fresh delivery email is queued for your approval — with the original payment link and details — so you can send it with one click instead of digging through your sent folder.

Absolutely. Choose from softer, standard, or firmer tones. You can also set regional styles and the AI will adapt its language and approach accordingly.

Yes. We use bank-level encryption for all data in transit and at rest. OAuth tokens are encrypted with separate keys, and we verify all webhook signatures. Your invoice data is synced securely and never shared.

Of course. We offer a 14-day free trial with full access to all features — no credit card required. Cancel anytime if it's not the right fit.
