Sorted

Invoice sent, chased,
sorted.

Turn scribbled job notes into a PayPal invoice in seconds. Sorted keeps the ledger, spots who's late, and writes the awkward reminder emails for you, from a friendly nudge up to a final notice.

How it works

1

Say what you did

“Stopcock for Mrs Okafor, 2.5 hrs, new valve 18 quid, call out 45, vat on top.” Type it in the van or just say it.

2

Sorted writes the invoice

AI pulls out the customer, labour at your rate, parts, call-out, VAT and terms. You check it, tweak it, and send it through PayPal in one tap.

3

Sorted does the chasing

Spots late payers, drafts a friendly nudge, then a firmer note, then a proper final notice — citing the Late Payment Act for business customers. You approve every send.

PayPal

Real invoices, real payments

  • • Invoices are created and emailed with the PayPal Invoicing API v2 — customers pay by card or PayPal.
  • • Status syncs straight from PayPal, so the ledger is always the truth.
  • • Reminders go out through PayPal's invoice reminder, driven by the PayPal Agent Toolkit.
  • • Cash or bank transfer? Record it against the PayPal invoice in one tap.
AI agent

An assistant that asks before it acts

  • • Reads messy notes and voice dictation into structured invoices.
  • • Writes reminders with the right tone, and only cites the Late Payment Act where it applies.
  • • “Ask Sorted” answers questions like “who owes me what?” using tools over your ledger.
  • • Anything that contacts a customer needs your OK first. Works without an AI key too, using a built-in rules engine.
