93% of businesses get paid late, and the average company has $300,000 sitting in unpaid invoices at any given moment — money already earned but out of reach.
Why does the money you've already earned keep slipping further out of reach the longer an overdue invoice sits, and what does that delay actually cost a business over a year of trading?
Every invoice you send is money you've already worked for. But the longer it goes unpaid, the less of it you ever see. Invoices at 90 days overdue have only an 18% chance of being paid in full, and the average business takes 48 days just to follow up. In that window, the cash you earned quietly evaporates — around $300,000 tied up across a typical business's books at any one time. That's payroll you can't meet, suppliers you can't pay on time, and growth you can't fund. With 93% of businesses hit by late payments, this isn't an edge case. It's the default, and it chokes cash flow one overdue invoice at a time.
Late payment is the quiet reason most failed businesses run out of cash. 82% of business failures trace back to poor cash flow — and invoices left unchased are usually the cause.
An invoice that hits 90 days overdue has just an 18% chance of being paid in full. Yet the average business waits 48 days before chasing it.
What changes for an owner when AI runs the entire invoice-chasing process — from the moment a job is finished to the day the payment clears — instead of leaving it to manual chasing and awkward phone calls?
MPLOI's AI Invoice Chaser automates the whole cycle: invoices go out the moment a job is done, reminders follow automatically — polite but persistent — and payments reconcile without manual data entry. Owners get a real-time view of what's owed and where the risk sits. MPLOI's clients have cut average payment time by 30% and improved cash flow by 25%, while winning back the hours they used to lose chasing invoices. One pest control owner came to us with more than 1,000 overdue invoices, some over 500 days old, and dreaded opening Xero each morning. With the Invoice Chaser handling collections, he gets paid faster and spends his time on customers instead of debtors. The technology exists, it's affordable, and the longer invoice chasing stays manual, the deeper the hole gets.
How does MPLOI's AI Invoice Chaser actually collect debt?
Your AI Voice Agent makes outbound calls at scale, speaks to debtors in natural conversation, and leaves voicemails when needed. It is not a chatbot or an email sequence. It is a fully autonomous voice agent working your ledger around the clock, without a collector on payroll.
