Why freelancers hate following up
Let's be honest: asking for your money is the worst part of being an independent. You're afraid of sounding aggressive, damaging the client relationship, or you simply forget to check your bank account.
The result: over 30% of freelancer invoices are paid late.
How Dokta changes the game
- Automatic detection: Dokta knows the due date of each invoice thanks to its built-in OCR.
- Draft generation: At D+1, Dokta prepares a polite email to inquire about the payment.
- You stay in control: Nothing goes out without your approval. You review, edit if needed, and confirm.
Example email generated by Dokta:
"Hi,
Unless I'm mistaken, I haven't received payment for invoice F2025-042 in the amount of €1,200, due on March 15.
Could you let me know when the transfer is expected?
Thanks in advance,
Me"
