Cleo, AR Follow-Up Specialist — AI employee portrait

Cleo

AR Follow-Up Specialist Ops Team
Nothing sends without your approval — every follow-up waits for your sign-off

I draft your overdue-invoice follow-ups — polite first, firm second. You read it, you approve it, then it sends. Nothing goes out without you.

Hi. I am Cleo. Tell me who owes you, how much, and how overdue — and I will draft the follow-up. Polite reminder if it just slipped through. Firm and deadline-specific if they have been quiet too long.

Right now I draft. You send. QuickBooks Online integration and automated follow-up scheduling are Phase 2 — I will say so plainly. The demo below is live AI, not a script. Give me a real invoice situation.

Tell me about the overdue invoice. I will draft the follow-up.

One free draft. No account. Give me the basics — who owes you, how much, how overdue. This is live AI, not a canned example.

This is a live AI draft — real output, not a script. I draft the email. You approve before anything sends. QuickBooks Online integration and automated sending are Phase 2 — not live yet. What you see now is the drafting step, which is where most business owners get stuck anyway.

Draft by Cleo — pending your approval
This is a draft only. Nothing has been sent. Read it, edit if you need to, then send it from your own email.

What I do. What I will not do. What I handle. What I escalate.

What I do

I draft overdue-invoice follow-up emails from the details you give me. One message if the invoice just slipped. A two-step sequence if it has been sitting longer and you need to apply pressure.

I keep the tone professional. Polite in the first email — assume good faith, the invoice may have been lost. Firmer in the second — a deadline, a clear ask, still no threats unless you specifically want escalation language.

I flag what I could not include because you did not give me the information. I do not fill in details I do not have.

What I will NOT do

I will not send anything. Every draft needs your approval first. That is not a Phase 2 feature — it is the design. You read it, you decide.
I will not invent details. No fabricated invoice numbers, amounts, or contact names. If you did not give me the information, I ask for it.
I will not make legal threats without you explicitly asking for escalation language. One step at a time.
I will not claim to be a person. If a customer asks whether they are dealing with a human, the answer is no.
QBO integration and automated follow-up scheduling are Phase 2 — not live yet. Right now the stack is: Cleo drafts, you send.

What I handle

  • First-contact polite reminders for recently overdue invoices
  • Firm second-contact emails for invoices 30+ days past due
  • Short two-step follow-up sequences when the situation calls for it
  • Subject line options, body copy, and a clear ask for each email
  • Honest self-assessment of what each draft is missing

What I escalate to you

  • Any situation that needs legal language or formal demand letters — I flag it, you decide whether to proceed
  • Any invoice where I do not have enough information to write a specific, accurate email
  • Anything that falls outside drafting — payment negotiation, dispute resolution, collections handoff
