Awaiting your approval

Following up on Invoice #1048 for Maple St ($18,420). Can you confirm when it is scheduled for payment?

Our mission is simple: get contractors paid — on time, in full, and without the awkward chase.

Late payment is not a paperwork problem. It's a cash-flow problem.

  • Invoices age quietly.

    A 30-day invoice becomes 75 days old while everyone is busy building.

  • Chasing is awkward.

    Nobody wants to nag the GC who sends them work.

  • Deadlines sneak up.

    Miss the lien window and the strongest leverage is gone.

How it works

  1. Connect QuickBooks

    Drawbridge sees open invoices, due dates, and payment history.

  2. We find the blocker

    Missing paperwork, an unapproved change order, the GC waiting on owner funding, or simple AP drift.

  3. You approve the follow-up

    Professional, firm, relationship-safe messages drafted for each step. Nothing is sent without your approval.

  4. Escalate only if needed

    Owner visibility, notice-of-intent preparation, and a clean, attorney-ready lien packet before deadlines are at risk.

What Drawbridge does

  • Overdue invoice monitoring from QuickBooks aging

  • Human-approved GC follow-up ladder

  • Pay-app and change-order blocker diagnosis

  • Mechanics-lien deadline tracking for private projects

  • Owner updates that keep pressure professional

  • Lien packet assembly

    Contract, change orders, pay apps, invoices, notices, follow-up trail, waivers, delivery records.

Not a collections agency.

Drawbridge is built to protect the relationship, not burn it. Every escalation is approved by you, written to sound like your office on its best day, and logged so the GC sees clean paperwork instead of chaos.

Pay only when you get paid.

Pilot pricing: contingency only. No monthly fee to start. No recovery, no fee.

  • Standard follow-up

    3–5%

    Ordinary overdue invoices that mainly need consistent, professional follow-up.

  • Older / high-risk recovery

    8–10%

    Older balances and harder cases that need the full escalation ladder.

Your tier is agreed in writing before any work starts.
