DueChat - A chat that chases your unpaid invoices

by•
DueChat throws out the dashboard entirely. The whole product — including signup — is a single chat screen. You tell it who owes you money and how much, and it schedules three escalating, politely-worded email reminders around the due date: a friendly nudge, a firmer follow-up, a final notice. Each one includes a Stripe-powered pay button. The moment the client pays (or you mark it paid), the reminders stop automatically. No forms, no settings pages, no accounting-software connection required.

Hey Product Hunt I'm the person behind DueChat. Long-time lurker here, first time launching something of my own, so — genuinely excited and a little nervous to have this live. The backstory, since it explains every weird decision in this product: I spent a few years freelancing, and the part of the job that wore me down wasn't the actual work — it was writing "hey, just following up on invoice #204" emails. I'd either forget to send them (and eat the loss when a client just... never paid), send them too aggressively and feel bad about it, or avoid sending them at all and quietly resent the client instead. When I went looking for a tool to fix just that one problem, everything I found wanted me to run Xero or QuickBooks first, then log into a dashboard with aging reports and credit-risk scores and forecasting charts I didn't need. I don't have a finance team. I have five invoices and a bad habit of avoiding awkward emails. So I built the tool I actually wanted: no dashboard, no accounting-software sync, no settings menu to configure. You open DueChat, and it's a chat. You tell it who owes you money — "Acme Studio, $1,250, due August 1" — and it takes it from there: a friendly reminder, then a firmer one, then a final notice, each with a Stripe pay button built in, each one canceled automatically the second the invoice is paid. That's the entire product. What's still rough, honestly: The chat-only UI is a real bet — most people expect a table of invoices somewhere, and I'm watching closely to see if that instinct is right or if it's just habit from every other tool being dashboard-first. Onboarding still has friction at the Stripe Connect step (connecting your own account so clients can pay you directly) — I know a chunk of people bounce there and I'm actively working on smoothing it out. It's free for 3 active invoices, $29/mo unlimited after that — simple on purpose, but pricing is always a live experiment. I'd genuinely love feedback, especially from other people who've built (or wanted to build) something deliberately narrow instead of a sprawling all-in-one suite. And if you've ever been the one writing that awkward "just following up" email yourself — tell me what you'd want a tool like this to do that it doesn't yet. Thanks for taking a look today.
