Invoice automation that drafts every invoice and never sends one

Invoice automation here is an AI employee that turns one row in a sheet into a draft invoice, a filed PDF and a draft email. You check it, you send it, and the hours spent typing invoices come back.

Running today for a client: invoices prepared from a sheet, PDF filed, draft invoice and draft email created.

The work it takes off you

Invoice automation takes the retyping out of invoicing: the client details, the product lines, the tax wording, the PDF, the filing and the covering email.

By hand, every invoice means opening the accounting system, finding the client, typing the lines, checking the tax wording, saving a PDF, putting it in the right folder and writing the email. Each step is small. Together they take hours out of the week, and each one is a place where a mistake slips in.

The mistakes are rarely dramatic. A tax number left off. VAT wording that does not match the type of sale. A PDF saved to the desktop instead of the client folder. They surface later, usually at the quarter-end, when somebody has to go back and fix them one by one.

How the workflow runs

The workflow runs the same steps every time it is triggered, and the last step is a person.

  1. Ingest: you fill one row in a Google Sheet with the client, the products and the quantities. The sheet remembers every client and product, so most fields fill themselves.
  2. Normalise and enrich: the row becomes one clean record, completed from the client and product memory.
  3. Decide: a READY check confirms nothing is missing, and the VAT wording your accountant defined for that type of sale is applied at creation, not checked afterwards.
  4. Generate: when you tick the row to go, the robot renders the invoice PDF, files it in the client's folder, creates a draft invoice in your accounting system with the PDF attached, and writes a draft email beside it.
  5. Sign-off: a person opens the draft, checks it and sends it. The robot never does.

What you get

Every invoice leaves a complete trail, and every part of it is yours.

Who it fits: any business that wants to automate invoicing

It fits any business that issues invoices by hand and wants to automate invoicing without handing control to a robot.

The rules it runs under

The invoicing robot drafts; it never sends, never approves and never decides for you.

Nothing is created until the row passes the READY check and you tick it. The invoice stays a draft in your accounting system until a person approves it there, and the email stays a draft until a person sends it. Every action is written to an audit record, and a kill switch stops the robot in one command.

The AI employee is ours: it is rented monthly and runs on our servers against your own accounts, and the invoices, the PDFs, the sheet and the mailbox stay yours. If the rental stops, the workflow stops and you keep everything.

Questions, answered plainly

Is this automated invoicing software I have to install?

No. There is nothing to install and no new program to learn. The AI employee works in the sheet, the Drive, the mailbox and the accounting system you already use. It is built around your invoices and rented monthly, not sold as a licence.

Is it an AI invoice generator that makes things up?

No. It generates the invoice only from what is in your row and in your client and product memory, with the tax wording your accountant defined. If something is missing, the READY check stops it before anything is created.

Does it send invoices to my clients or to the tax authority?

No. It prepares drafts only, and a person sends every invoice. It is not connected to any government e-invoicing network; it creates drafts in your own accounting system.

Which accounting systems does it work with?

Today it works with Xero, Gmail, Google Drive and Google Sheets. For another accounting system, we look at it during the read-only first look and tell you plainly whether it fits.
