How Does Autonomous Billing Work?

To build a complete accounts receivable automation system, the cycle must start before billing begins: at the proposal and agreement stage between an accounting firm and their client. Getting this step right is what eliminates every manual touch point that follows.

Agreement

Send an online live agreement to your client to sign with one click.

The key is turning the engagement letter into live accounting proposal software — a dynamic source of truth that both you and your client reference, update, and act on throughout the entire engagement.

Payment Method

Your customer is asked to provide a payment method for future use.

You never need to deal with payment details and collections directly. Your client only needs to provide them once.

Congratulation

You now have a cloud agreement with a payment method connected. The foundation for freedom is set.

Invoicing

Invoices are generated automatically from the signed agreement.

Anchor's automated billing software populates every invoice according to your agreed commercial terms and conditions, with no manual entry required from your team.

Payment

Automatic payment collection with full confidence.

Clients are charged on the due date based on their signed agreement, with complete transparency into when and how payment will occur. Accounts receivable automation means no manual collection effort from either side.

Reconciliation

Automatic reconciliation.

Anchor is connected to both the bank and your accounting software so it can fully reconcile payments end to end.
