Everything between “invoice sent” and paid.

PayNudge does one job: getting freelancers and small agencies paid for work they've already done, politely and on time. Here is everything it does to get there.

Add an invoice in seconds

No integrations or accounting software. Start from the invoice you already sent.

  • Reads your invoice for you

    Upload a PDF or snap a photo. PayNudge pulls out the client, contact, invoice number, amount, currency, issue date and due date for you to confirm.

  • Or type it in

    Prefer not to use AI for this? Enter the details by hand. Everything else works exactly the same.

  • Your payment link in every reminder

    Add a Wise, PayPal or Stripe link to an invoice, and PayNudge includes it so paying is one click for your client.

  • Contract analysisPro & Studio

    Upload the contract and PayNudge highlights the payment terms, late-fee clauses and anything that affects what you can claim.

Drafts that sound like you wrote them

Your clients hear from you, in your words. PayNudge just makes sure the right message goes out at the right time.

  • Your voice, learned from your emails

    Paste a few emails you've sent. PayNudge matches your greeting, sign-off, sentence length and how direct you are.

  • Tone and relationship per client

    Warm, neutral or firm, combined with long-term, new or repeat late payer. The same step reads very differently for each.

  • Facts from your invoice, never invented

    Amounts, dates and interest figures come from your invoice and our calculator, not from the AI. Drafts never make up legal claims.

  • Edit or regenerate anything

    Change a word, rewrite a paragraph, or ask for a fresh draft. You always have the final say on what's sent.

Quick reminder: invoice INV-0142

Hi Dana,

Hope the launch went well. The new site looks great out in the wild! A quick note that invoice INV-0142 for £4,800 was due yesterday. In case it slipped through the cracks, I've attached it again with the bank details.

Thanks so much, Sam
