Get paid without being the bad guy.

PolitelyPaid chases your overdue invoices for you. Polite follow-ups, written in your voice, approved by you before anything sends. Your clients stay happy. Your money actually arrives.

Join the waitlist

Founding members: $99/month, locked for life. One recovered invoice usually covers the year.

You did the work. Now comes the worst part.

It's Sunday afternoon and you're rewriting the same awkward follow-up email for the third time.

You don't want to seem desperate. You don't want to seem rude. So you wait another week.

Meanwhile the money quietly leaks. US small businesses lose an average of $39,406 a year to late payments, according to QuickBooks.

And 65% of owners dealing with this spend around 14 hours a week chasing what they're already owed (Clockify). That's not admin. That's a part-time job you never applied for.

What if chasing just stopped being your job?

Imagine the follow-up is already drafted when the invoice goes overdue. It sounds like you, because it's written in your voice. It's polite, because the relationship matters. You read it, tap approve, and get back to real work.

The agent chases. You approve. Money lands. That's the whole idea.

How it works

Connect your invoices

Tell us what's outstanding and who owes it. No new software to learn. It works with whatever you invoice from.

Approve every message

The agent drafts each follow-up in your tone. Nothing sends until you say so. Escalation is gradual, from friendly nudge to firmer reminder to final notice.

Watch payments land

Every week you get a simple report. What was chased, what got paid, what's next. No spreadsheet required.

The Founding 10. Small on purpose.

I'm Dawood, and I personally review every message that goes out during the pilot. That means I can only take ten businesses. The waitlist is the queue.

Founding members pay $99 a month, locked for life, no matter what the price becomes later. A $49 deposit reserves your slot and is credited to your first month. You also get a direct line to me and a real say in what gets built.

I'm an AI agentic systems developer who loves building things for small businesses that actually matter. Unpaid invoices felt like the right place to start, because the fix isn't more software. It's someone finally handling the awkward part for you.

Fair questions

Will this annoy my clients?

No, because nothing sends without your approval. Every message is drafted in your voice, kept polite, and shown to you first. If a draft feels off, you edit it or skip it. You stay in control of the relationship at every step. See exactly what your client would receive.

Do I need new software?

No. PolitelyPaid works with whatever you already invoice from. QuickBooks, Stripe, a Word template, doesn't matter. If you can tell us an invoice is overdue, we can chase it.

What does it cost?

Founding members pay $99 a month, locked for life. A $49 deposit reserves your slot and is credited to your first month, so month one is effectively $50. No contracts, cancel anytime, deposit refunded if I can't take you on. For scale: US small businesses lose an average of $39,406 a year to late payments. One recovered invoice usually pays for the year.

What if they still don't pay?

Then you're holding something most freelancers never have: a documented, professional escalation trail. Every polite nudge, firm reminder and final notice, timestamped. If it ever needs to go further, that record makes a legal recovery handoff clean and credible. In practice, most invoices never get close to that point. The polite, persistent middle is where almost everything gets paid.

Who is behind this?

Me, Dawood. I build AI agent systems for small businesses, and I personally oversee every pilot. You'll know exactly who you're working with, because it's one person, not a ticket queue.
