Get Paid Faster. Sophia Follows Up So You Don't Have To

The invoice nobody chases
The average invoice sits unpaid for 23 days when nobody follows up. Sophia doesn't forget.
Mid-foil with developer on your hands is the exact moment a color-correction call comes in, a $320–$480 service and a two-year client gone, while Instagram DMs and 'Book Now' clicks sit unread. Sophia answers every call and message within 5 minutes, in your voice, so the chair fills itself.

What Sophia does to get you paid faster
Invoice sent. Follow-up automated. Cash collected.
- AUTOMATE: sends the invoice the second you mark the job complete.
- NEGOTIATE: texts a Stripe-secured one-tap link. Apple Pay, Google Pay, card, or ACH.
- AUTOMATE: follows up at day 2, 5, and 10 if unpaid, your voice, not a bot template.
- SPEAK: works across SMS, email, and WhatsApp, whichever channel they use.
- AUTOMATE: reconciles payments back to QuickBooks, Stripe, or Square.
- DECIDE: tracks days-to-pay, collection rate, and outstanding AR in real time.
Every channel answered. Every decision made. 168 hours a week, the work of three hires.
Operator, not software
Software hands you features. Sophia hands you outcomes.
A billing tool gives you buttons to push and reminders to manage. Sophia just chases the invoice and gets you paid, not another app to run.
A DIY AI tool
Software you run
- You configure it, write the prompts, and wire the workflows.
- Generic out of the box, it knows nothing about your work.
- One more app to log into, monitor, and keep alive.
- Hands you features and leaves the work to you.
- Charges per seat or per message, then needs babysitting.
Sophia
The operator you hire
- Arrives already set up and trained, nothing to build.
- Pre-trained in your trade, including the questions your customers actually ask.
- One operator who just works, across phone, text, email, web, social, and Google.
- Hands you outcomes, answered, booked, followed up, handled.
- Does the work of ~3 hires for a fraction of one salary. 168 hours a week, from $5/hour.
And she’s already trained in salons and barbers from day one, not a blank tool you have to teach.
The payment math: chasing by hand vs. Sophia
Same job. Same customer. Very different cash flow.

|---|---|---|---|
| Days to pay (avg) | 28 days (part-time bookkeeper) | 37 days (you chase when you remember) | 1.2 days (Sophia Pro) |
| Collection rate | ~91% | ~83% | ~98% |
| Owner time on AR | 6 hrs/wk | 10 hrs/wk | 0 hrs/wk |
| Cost | $1,440/mo (bookkeeper) | $0 (but 17% of jobs uncollected) | $1,597/mo (Sophia Pro) |

Let's talk
Built for local businesses losing leads across every channel.
HVAC, plumbing, roofing, electrical, dental, vets, med-spas, real estate, legal, accounting, cleaning, landscape, restaurants, retail, gyms, salons — pre-trained on the 50 questions your customers ask.
See your industryQuestions salons and barbers ask before they hire her.
Is the payment link secure?
Yes. Sophia uses Stripe-issued, PCI-compliant, single-use links, the customer's card data never touches your phone or Sophia's servers.
Do I need to switch from QuickBooks / Stripe / Square?
No. Sophia plugs into Stripe, Square, QuickBooks Payments, and most SMB processors on Pro and above. The money lands in the same bank account, just an average of 22 days earlier.
How does Sophia reduce no-shows by 41% when I've tried reminders before and clients still don't show?
Standard reminders say when to come; hers ask clients to confirm or reschedule. She texts 24 hours out, 'Appointment with [Stylist] tomorrow at 2:30pm. Reply C to confirm or R to reschedule', then again 1 hour before. Anyone who needs to move it does it then, so you fill the slot from your cancellation list. No-shows drop from 14–18% to under 5% inside 30 days.
Can Sophia book to specific stylists, color-certified, extensions, senior vs. junior, without double-booking?
Yes, she books to your exact provider rules: color and bleach to color-certified stylists, extensions to extension-certified, beard trims and fades to your barbers, senior stylists at their own rate tier. If the requested stylist is full, she offers the next qualified one and explains why, never bumps to whoever has a gap. No double-bookings, no skills mismatch.
Will she pre-book the next appointment before the client walks out?
Yes. Three hours after checkout she texts a rebook nudge on your interval. 4 weeks for cuts, 6 for color, 8 for highlights, 12 for keratin, with a link to book in 30 seconds. Rebook rates average 74% in the first 90 days vs. the 48–52% industry average.
Get paid today, not 23 days from now.
Sophia sends the invoice the moment you're done, follows up until it's paid, and reconciles to your books, cash flow that doesn't depend on your memory.
