Speak the invoice. It sends itself. It chases the ones who don’t pay.
You do the work — you shouldn’t have to fight to get paid for it. TradieO turns your voice into an invoice on site, sends it before you’ve left, then does the awkward chasing for you. Most tradies go from getting paid in eleven days to four.
The slowest part of the job is getting paid for it.
The work’s done. Now the invoice sits in your head until you’re home, then it waits on the “I’ll do it tomorrow” pile, then it finally goes out a week late. The customer takes their sweet time. You send an awkward reminder, feel like a nag, and wait some more.
Every day between finishing the job and the money landing is a day you’ve bankrolled someone else’s business with your own cash. That’s how good tradies end up cash-tight while they’re flat out busy.
From “I’ll invoice tonight” to paid.
Invoice on site, by voice
Talk to your phone the second the job’s done: “two hours labour, parts, callout.” TradieO builds the itemised invoice from your own rates and sends it before you’ve packed up.
Easy ways for them to pay
The customer gets a clean invoice with your payment details and a simple way to pay. Less friction on their end means the money moves quicker.
Automatic chasing
Not paid? TradieO sends a polite reminder at the right time, then another if it needs to — professional, and not from you personally. You stop being your own debt collector.
See who owes you at a glance
Every unpaid invoice sits on one board, oldest first, so you always know exactly what’s outstanding without digging through a shoebox.
Eleven days to four.
When the invoice goes out the moment the job’s done, and the chasing happens automatically, the whole cycle collapses. Most tradies running on TradieO see their average payment time drop from around eleven days to about four.
That’s not a small thing. Faster payment means cash in the account when the parts bill lands, less time on the phone chasing money, and no more quietly carrying customers who’ve forgotten they owe you.
Getting-paid questions.
How does voice invoicing know my prices?
It uses your own rates and common jobs, so a spoken line like “PTR valve and two hours labour” comes out priced the way you’d price it. You check it before it sends.
Are the payment reminders going to annoy my customers?
No. They’re polite, professionally worded, and spaced sensibly — the kind of nudge a good office would send. You set the tone, and you can stop chasing any specific customer with a tap.
Does this work if I invoice at end of month, not per job?
Yes. You can invoice per job on site or batch them how you like — the voice entry and auto-chasing work either way.
Can I see everything that’s still owed to me?
Yes — one board shows every outstanding invoice, oldest first, with what’s overdue flagged, so nothing slips.
