How it works

The awkward part of freelancing, automated.

No more “just circling back…” emails at midnight. Three steps, then Babara takes it from there.

  1. 01

    Add the invoice

    Number, amount, due date, client email. Pick a tone. 30 seconds, no integrations.

  2. 02

    Babara follows up

    Six perfectly-timed emails, from a friendly heads-up to a final notice, sent at 9:30 in your timezone.

  3. 03

    Your client acts in one click

    Pay now, promise a date, or ask a question. Babara pauses, waits or checks in on its own.

Not just reminders

Babara reads the room.

Most tools blast the same email on a timer. Babara watches what each client actually does, learns how they pay, and tells you when the money will land.

Behaviour-aware emails

Opened but ignored? Never opened? Clicked pay and stalled? Babara rewrites the next email to fit.

Opened 3×, no reply“I can see my notes reached you. Replying is one tap…”
Clicked pay, no money“Did your payment for #1042 go through?”

Client Pay DNA

Every client gets a reliability score from real history: lateness, on-time rate, kept promises.

Personal handoff kit

When the emails have done their job, Babara drafts the WhatsApp message and a call script for you.

Hi John, it’s Maya. Just checking in personally on invoice #1042. Is anything holding it up on your side?

The pay page

Clients answer in one click. Babara does the rest.

Every reminder links to a clean page with your invoice and four buttons. It turns silence into a clear next step, and tells Babara exactly what to do next.

Pay now

Opens your Stripe, PayPal or Wise link. Or shows your bank details.

→ Babara logs the click

I’ll pay on…

Client picks a date. No back-and-forth email.

→ Babara waits, then checks in the day after

I’ve already paid

For transfers still in flight.

→ Babara pauses and asks you to confirm

I have a question

Wrong amount? Need a PO number?

→ Babara pauses and forwards it to you
Babara’s plan

Six emails. Perfect timing. Zero awkwardness.

Each reminder gets a little clearer, never ruder. If your client pays, promises or asks something, Babara stops and adapts on her own.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is Babara?
Babara is an invoice reminder tool for freelancers, studios and small agencies. You add an unpaid invoice, and Babara emails your client a series of friendly, escalating reminders, then gives them a one-click page to pay, promise a payment date, or ask a question.
Do I have to connect my accounting software?
No. Babara works with any invoicing tool. Add the invoice number, amount, due date and your client’s email in about 30 seconds, and paste your usual payment link (Stripe, PayPal, Wise…) or bank details.
Will the emails sound robotic or rude?
No. You choose a tone (warm, balanced or firm) and Babara writes short, human emails that escalate in clarity, never in rudeness. You can preview every email before it goes out.
What happens when my client replies?
Replies go straight to your inbox. If your client uses the pay page instead, Babara adapts automatically: it pauses when they say they’ve paid or ask a question, and waits until their promised date before checking in.
How does Babara adapt reminders to each client?
Babara tracks whether reminder emails are opened, whether the pay page is visited and whether the client clicked “Pay”. If a client keeps opening but never acts, or started paying but nothing arrived, the next email is rewritten for that situation.
What is Pay DNA?
Pay DNA is a 0–100 reliability score for each client, calculated from their real payment history with you: average days late, on-time rate and how many payment promises they kept. Babara uses it to predict when each open invoice will be paid.
When are reminders sent?
By default: 3 days before the due date, on the due date, then 3, 7, 14 and 21 days late. Emails go out at 9:30 in your timezone, and never more often than every 48 hours. Pro users can switch individual steps off.
How much does Babara cost?
Babara is free for up to 3 invoices being chased at a time. Pro is $29 per month for unlimited invoices, a customisable reminder plan and no Babara branding, with a 14-day money-back guarantee. Cancel anytime.
Does Babara take a cut of my payments?
Never. Clients pay you directly through your own payment link or bank details. Babara only sends the reminders and tracks what happens.
