The method
The work is done.The money should follow.
The quote goes out in two minutes, they sign from their phone, the deposit is requested automatically, and the invoice is settled in one click. The reminders never get forgotten.
You're no longer the one chasing: the reminder goes out without you, and the tone stays yours.
The figure that sums it all up
The two average amounts for a small French business. In France, fewer than one business in two pays its suppliers on time.
What your customers owe youinvoices already sent, work already done, not yet paid
What you actually have in the bankthe cash available to pay your suppliers and pay yourself a salary
What that money isn't doing
That 29 578 € is already earned. As long as it sits with your customers, it buys no stock and pays nobody.
It's not a turnover problem: it's a timing problem. And you pay for that delay elsewhere.
What it really changes
The work is done, the customer is happy, and yet you're the one fronting the money. Here's where it shows.
Materials for the next job, wages, rent: it's your cash flow that fronts what the customer hasn't paid yet.
The deposit is in before you spend the first euro. The job no longer starts on your back.
One business owner in two hit by a late payment has already delayed paying a supplier or a wage. The delay passes down the line.
On time, as before. You keep the reputation of someone who pays, and the good prices that come with it.
Find the invoice, find the number, find the words, do it again the following week. Two hours a month at the very least.
The reminders go out by themselves, in order, at the right time. Evenings become evenings again.
One business owner in two has already seen their business put at risk by a late payment. It's almost never the amount that puts you at risk, it's the delay.
What we do
Quote sent. Signature received.
Deposit requested. Invoice sent.
Payment received. Reminders handled.
Everything moves along, even when you've moved on to something else.
The quote goes out neatly to your customer.
The customer signs online, you're notified.
The deposit is requested automatically.
The invoice goes out as soon as the deposit is received.
Reminders in stages, with no intervention.
The payment is in, everything is up to date.
The turnover that doesn't exist yet
The site visit is done, the pricing is done, and then nothing. Most business owners have never seen this counter.

The figure almost nobody tracks. Month after month, it tells you whether you're losing on price or on silence.
At day 7, day 21, then day 35. It offers help with a decision, it asks for nothing: following up a quote is nothing like chasing an unpaid invoice.
It's almost always a decision put off: another quote awaited, a budget to weigh up. The quote isn't lost, it's on hold, and nobody reopens it.
Asked what makes them sign with a tradesperson, homeowners cite reputation first, then the trust they felt at the meeting, then the after-sales service. The lowest price only comes fourth.

The question everyone asks
Atlas follows up for you, from the first reminder to putting the file together.
Five automatic steps, designed to get you paid without spending your days on it.
What the law says
Between businesses, an invoice paid late can incur penalties and a fixed compensation of 40 euros for recovery costs. These details are mandatory on your invoices: they're there, automatically.
Up to the third stage, there's nothing for you to do and nothing to say. Beyond that, nothing goes out without your say-so.
Most delays are simple oversights.
A message with the button to pay, by card or bank transfer.
Still polite, but firmer.
The penalties set out on your invoice are pointed out.
The letter is written, the amounts calculated and the recorded delivery ready to go.
It only goes if you decide so.
Signed quote, invoice, proof of sending, reminder history: everything is together.
You decide what happens next.
How it works
Between the three, you do nothing. The chain moves along by itself.
They receive it and sign it the same day. The deposit is requested straight after.
It goes out with its payment link. The reminder before the due date is already scheduled.
The payment is logged by itself. You reconciled nothing, chased nothing, asked for nothing.
You stay in control of everything: the tone of the messages, the size of the deposit, and the customers you'd rather call yourself.
The time it takes
Tick what fills your weeks. The counter adds up by itself. Nothing is saved, nothing is sent.

What you tell us
Six things we hear as soon as money comes up. They deserve a straight answer.
Asking for a deposit looks distrustful.
Our answer
It's provided for by law and it's the norm in almost every trade. A deposit requested at the moment of signing shocks nobody: it's the one asked for three weeks later that surprises.
I don't dare chase, I'm afraid of offending.
Our answer
Thirty-four per cent of business owners say the same. That's exactly why you're no longer the one chasing: the reminder goes out by itself, politely, and you no longer have the awkward conversation to have.
My customers pay by cheque, it's always worked.
Our answer
We take nothing away from them. The payment link is added, it doesn't replace. Those who prefer a cheque carry on, the others pay the same day from their phone.
Online payment means fees.
Our answer
Yes, a few cents per transaction. Compare that with an invoice paid forty days late, or not at all: forty-two per cent of businesses have already given up on being paid.
Late payments come with the trade.
Our answer
That's what fatalism says, and it's wrong. Eighty-six per cent of businesses suffer late payments, but those that chase at the right time get paid faster. The difference isn't the customer, it's the follow-up.
I don't have time to deal with all this.
Our answer
That's exactly what we remove. Forty-seven per cent of business owners spend more than two hours a month chasing late payments. Those two hours disappear, they don't move elsewhere.
Funding
French regions fund the digitisation of small businesses. Precisely the tools this page is about.
0 %100 %
The management software, payments, scheduling, automation. No brochures, no advertising.
A normal business expense: subscriptions and services are tax-deductible, VAT reclaimed.
From €5,000 to €100,000 for your move to digital, with no security required. It's a loan, it has to be repaid.
The trap, and there's no way back
The application must be filed before anything starts. A signed quote, a deposit paid, and the application is inadmissible.
So it's the first thing we look at together, before we even talk about what we install.
A rule shared by almost all public grants
What we do with you
We help you put the application together: the request remains yours, and you're the one who signs it. Your tax affairs are your accountant's, and we don't replace them. No grant is guaranteed: schemes change, so do the conditions, and some regions have none.
