BUILT FOR B2B SERVICE BUSINESSES

A Better Follow-Up Process for Teams Paid by Invoice.

This AI employee is designed for businesses that issue recurring B2B invoices, use clear payment terms and need consistent administrative follow-up without damaging client relationships.

AGENCIES & CREATIVE

Digital & Creative Agencies

Follow up on project retainers, milestone invoices and recurring service payments using an approved process.

CONSULTANCIES

Consultancies

Track due and overdue client invoices while keeping sensitive commercial conversations with the right person.

RECRUITMENT & STAFFING

Recruitment & Staffing Businesses

Maintain consistent follow-up on placement, contractor and service invoices across multiple client accounts.

B2B SERVICES

Other B2B Service Companies

Manage routine payment reminders where invoice records, contacts and terms are clearly documented.

SUITABILITY CHECK

A Strong Fit When:

  • Your business regularly issues B2B invoices
  • Staff spend time manually checking due dates and sending reminders
  • Follow-up becomes inconsistent when the team is busy
  • Most reminders follow a repeatable schedule
  • Disputes and sensitive cases can be escalated to a named person

Please Note: This service may not be suitable for consumer debt collection, legally disputed debts, accounts already in formal recovery, highly regulated collections activity or businesses without reliable invoice records.

DESIGNED TO IMPROVE RECEIVABLES ADMINISTRATION

Consistent Follow-Up Without Repetitive Manual Work.

The goal is to make routine invoice communication more organised while keeping commercial judgement, disputes and legal decisions with your team.

SCHEDULE & TIMING

Timely Reminders

Approved reminders are scheduled around recorded due dates instead of relying on someone to remember each follow-up.

TONE & TERMS

Consistent Communication

Customers receive professional wording based on the same approved rules and payment terms.

PROMISE DATES

Payment-Promise Tracking

Promised payment dates can be recorded and flagged when another follow-up or human review is required.

EARLY ALERTS

Earlier Dispute Visibility

Replies mentioning missing documents, incorrect amounts or service concerns are brought to your team’s attention.

SYSTEM SYNC

Cleaner Records

Follow-up activity, responses and status changes can be recorded in connected systems for easier review.

TEAM EFFICIENCY

Less Administrative Chasing

Your team spends less time sending routine reminders and more time handling exceptions and client relationships.

Results depend on invoice accuracy, customer circumstances, contract terms and your internal process. Hubflow does not guarantee payment, recovery rates or faster settlement.

No. It provides administrative follow-up for approved B2B invoices. Hubflow does not act as a debt collector, pursue formal recovery or provide legal services.

No. Customers continue to pay your business through your existing approved payment methods. Hubflow does not receive or hold payments on your behalf.

Yes. The schedule can include approved upcoming, due-date and overdue reminders based on the invoice data and rules provided by your team.

+ Can it track a promised payment date?
