An AI agent for accounts receivable collections that runs itself

Chasing payments eats a couple of hours a week: emails, repeat reminders, tracking who promised what. For an owner or bookkeeper that is $200–400 of time every month. Debt older than 90 days collects half as well — the money sits stuck while you work on something else.

AR Collector Pro is a ready-made AI agent for the ASCN platform that runs collections on its own:

• 📊 Keeps an invoice register in Google Sheets — amounts, due dates, stages, promises, and the full touch history in one table.
• ✉️ Drafts staged reminder emails — from a soft note 3 days before the due date to a final notice past day 30. The tone firms up each stage, with no threats of court or collectors.
• 🔁 Reads debtor replies — paid, promised, disputing, or asking for a plan. Status and log land in the register right away.
• ⏰ Remembers every "we'll pay Friday" — pauses until the date, then politely circles back if the money did not arrive.
• 📉 Sends a Friday report — receivables by aging bucket 0–30 / 31–60 / 61–90 / 90+, collected this week, escalation candidates.

You run it from an ordinary chat in ASCN or Telegram. No email reaches a debtor without your OK — the agent drafts, you decide.

How the agent works

No coding needed. You run everything from a chat.

1. Install from the marketplace. Open the agent page, click "Use template" — the agent shows up in your account in under 5 minutes.
2. Connect services in chat. Type "Connect my Gmail and Google Sheets," the agent hands you an authorization link — one click to sign in.
3. Set it up for you. Answer the onboarding questions: who the emails come from, how firm the tone is, the escalation threshold, and any VIP clients to leave alone.
4. Invoice register. The agent builds a Google Sheet from scratch or imports your CSV export from accounting. This is the single source of truth for every debt.
5. Tasks and triggers. A daily 11:00 pass drafts reminders, a Gmail trigger catches debtor replies, and a Friday 16:00 report sums up the week.
6. Run it from one chat. Approve emails, mark invoices paid, adjust the tone — in the ASCN chat or Telegram.

Why this beats hiring someone to chase payments

• One subscription instead of hours of chasing. Payment chasing burns $200–400 of your time a month, and a dedicated collections clerk runs $800–2,000. The agent covers the routine for the price of the Start plan — $29/month as of June 12, 2026.
• Money comes back while it still can. Staged touches from day one keep an invoice out of the 90+ bucket, where recovery drops by half.
• No promise slips through. The agent remembers every "we'll pay Friday" and circles back the day after the date — the exact thing people tend to drop.
• Steady tone, no burnout. Every email follows the same rules — firm and polite. Quality holds at the end of the day and the end of the quarter.
• One recovered invoice pays for a year. A single stuck invoice of $500–5,000 brought back by the agent covers the annual subscription with room to spare.

What results users see

Across rollouts the agent saves an owner or bookkeeper 2–4 hours a week on reminders and speeds up recovery of early overdue debt: day-one touches beat the occasional manual nudge.

Results depend on your niche, the size of your receivables, how solvent your clients are, and how accurately the register is kept. The agent holds the cadence of touches — collection speed comes down to your setup and how disciplined the sheet is.

Set it up once — reminder drafts wait for your OK each morning, and the money comes back while it still can.

FAQ

Do I need coding skills?

No. The agent installs from the marketplace and is set up through an ordinary chat: you say what you need, and the agent connects Gmail, Google Sheets, and Telegram and creates the tasks.

Will the agent email a debtor without my knowledge?

No. The agent only prepares drafts and sends them to you for approval. No email reaches a debtor without your explicit OK in chat — that is a hard rule.

How safe is my data?

Connections run through official OAuth, tokens are stored encrypted and never appear in chats or logs. Each agent is isolated, and you can revoke access to any service at any moment. Amounts and debtor correspondence stay in your register, not in the agent's memory.

Can the agent see when an invoice is paid?

The agent has no direct bank access. It marks an invoice "paid" only after your confirmation or a payment row in the register. A debtor's "we paid" is logged as a claimed payment until you verify it.

What if my accounting is in QuickBooks or another system?

There are no direct connectors to accounting systems. The source of truth is the Google Sheets register, filled by CSV export through Google Drive or a row in the table. For an advanced setup you can connect a custom MCP server to your accounting system.

Does the agent call debtors?

No, the platform does not make voice calls. The agent works through email touches and reports to you. It suggests a personal call or a lawyer as an escalation option, but you act on it.

Can I tune the tone to my niche?

Yes. Through IDENTITY.md and SOUL.md, skills, and the collections playbook you set the signature, how firm the touches are, the day-by-day schedule, and the escalation threshold. Profiles: soft, standard, firm.

Can I switch the channel from Telegram to the ASCN chat?

Yes. Without Telegram, summaries and alerts arrive in the ASCN chat. The agent's logic stays the same when you switch channels.
