Never chase an invoice again.
Ody is the assistant you text in Apple Messages. It drafts your invoice, sends it when you say OK, then sends polite follow-ups on the schedule you approve.
No new app. If you can text a friend, you are set up.
The problem
The asking is the hard part
The invoice is 14 days late
The reminder has been open since Tuesday
And somehow you are the one apologizing
All this to ask for money you already earned.
How it works
Three texts. That is the whole system.
01
Text it like a person
02
The draft appears. Tweak it with one text
03
It goes out and stays watched
You decide what goes out. Ody handles the words, the timing, and the follow-through.
What it does
What you can hand it today
Invoices? Sent the day the work wraps.
Late payers? Nudged politely, on schedule.
The awkward email? Written calm, in your voice.
Due dates? Watched so you can stop counting.
Client details? Remembered, project after project.
Proposals? Drafted from a rambling voice note.
All in the same thread. No dashboard behind it.
Tone control
Firm without burning the bridge
The client hears a calm professional. You never rehearse the money conversation again.
A real conversation
The reminder you never have to write
Ody
The Northstar invoice is 14 days late. Draft a follow-up.
Subject: Northstar invoice 1048 Hi Lena, Invoice 1048 is now 14 days past due. Could you let me know when I should expect payment? Thank you, Jon
Make it firmer. This is the second reminder.
Revised: Hi Lena, This is a second reminder that invoice 1048 is now 14 days past due. Please arrange payment by Friday or reply today with the expected payment date. Thank you, Jon
Send it.
Sent. I’ll keep track of the reply and the payment date.

The full story
The invoice app for self employed people who hate asking twice
Every invoice app for freelancers promises the same thing: get paid faster. Then it hands you templates, a dashboard, and a client portal nobody logs into. But sending the invoice was never the hard part. The hard part comes two weeks later, when it has not been paid and the next move is on you.
That move has a cost accountants do not measure. You open the reminder, soften the first sentence, add just checking, delete it, put it back. You are apologizing for asking to be paid for finished work. Most late invoices do not age because clients refuse. They age because asking twice feels worse than waiting.
Ody takes the asking off you. You text one contact in Apple Messages: the client, the amount, the work. The invoice is drafted and sent under your name, the due date is watched, and when it slips, a polite reminder goes out on the schedule you approved. Firmer the second time. Escalated if it drags. You see every word before it leaves, and one text changes any of it.
It also remembers the things you resent keeping in your head: what you charged whom, which invoice is open, what the client asked for last time. Ask what Fieldnote paid for the deck in March and you get an answer, not a search through sent mail.
It works alongside the apps you already use, like Gmail, Stripe and QuickBooks. No dashboard. No per-invoice fees. No client portal. A flat monthly price for the one colleague whose whole job is the part you dread, and 14 days to get your money back if a real invoice does not get handled.
Be the person who did the work. Let Ody be the one who asks again.

Getting started
What happens after you tap the button
01
Tap the button, type your number
No download, no forms. Ody texts you first, usually within a minute.
02
Give it one real task
The invoice you have been putting off is the perfect first test. See the draft, change anything, say send.
03
Run it on real clients, money back for 14 days
You pay today, with 60% off your first payment. Canceling is about as hard as sending one more text. If it is not for you inside 14 days, the money-back guarantee is one button, no questions.
Late invoices
Watch a late invoice get handled
The conversation you keep rehearsing, held without you.
You wrote three words. You got $2,400. Nobody got an apology.
Common questions
You are probably thinking one of these
"I only send a few invoices a month."
A few invoices can still carry a lot of avoidance. The point is not volume. It is that each one goes out promptly and gets followed up without you carrying the dates in your head.
"I do not want to sound aggressive."
You set the tone: friendly, brief, firmer, more direct. Every reminder is a draft until you approve it, and the default register is calm and professional.
"What if it sends something I did not mean?"
Nothing leaves without your OK. Every invoice and email waits for your word, and you can change anything with one more text.
"I already have invoicing software."
Keep it if you like it. Software sends the invoice once. Ody does the part software skips: noticing it is late, asking again, and telling you when the money lands.
The rules
What Ody never does
Texts your clients. Never.
Sends anything without your OK. Never.
Lets an invoice age quietly. Never.
Charges per client or per invoice. Never.
