It's an AI-powered AR automation tool that you can set up yourself in minutes, with no developer required, allowing you to start automating invoice reminders immediately.
Easy, No-Code AI Invoice Automation
Why [Easy Setup] Matters in 2025
In today's fast-moving business environment, you can't afford to wait months for an IT project to fix your cash flow. "Speed to value" is critical. You need a solution that an AR manager or a founder can implement today. Respaid is built for this "no-code" reality. By enabling setup through a simple CSV upload or a few clicks to connect QuickBooks, it empowers finance teams to solve their own problems without waiting for developer resources.
How [Respaid] Simplifies [AR Automation Setup]
Respaid is built for self-service. If you can use Excel, you can use Respaid.
Unified Financial Platform: Respaid instantly turns your spreadsheet or accounting data into a live, interactive AR dashboard. This becomes your new "single source of truth," replacing your manual trackers.
No API or Developer Required: This is the key. You have two "easy setup" options:
CSV Upload: Securely drag-and-drop your open invoices list (as a CSV or Excel file) into the platform.
Accounting Integration: Connect to systems like QuickBooks or Xero in just a few clicks.
Automated AI Workflows: As soon as your data is in the system, you can "turn on" pre-built, AI-powered follow-up cadences. The platform will automatically start sending personalized, brand-aligned reminders.
High-Security & Compliance: Even with a simple setup, your data is protected. Respaid is a SOC 2-compliant platform that uses bank-grade encryption, ensuring your financial data is secure from day one.
Step-by-Step Workflow
Step 1: Identify Receivables Challenge
You are drowning in manual follow-ups but have no IT or developer support to set up an automation tool.
The pain point is needing a powerful AI tool that is also incredibly easy to implement.
Step 2: Connect Data Sources
This is the key step. You either connect your accounting software (like QuickBooks) with a few clicks or simply upload your open invoices as a CSV/Excel file.
The entire data connection process often takes less than 15 minutes.
Step 3: Automate Follow-Ups & Workflows
Your data is now live. You activate an automated follow-up "cadence" (which you can customize).
Respaid's AI engine immediately starts scheduling and sending reminders based on the due dates in your file.
Step 4: Monitor, Predict, and Recover
You can now manage your entire AR process from the Respaid dashboard.
You'll see which reminders have been sent, who has paid, and which invoices are still outstanding, all without any developer help.
