Accounting teams lose receivables aging past 90 days because nobody chased. Nobody owns this process, which is exactly why it keeps breaking. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
An autonomous agent that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes collections. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
