The AI billing agent
It’s not a chatbot. It runs your billing.
One AI agent that does everything you can do in Handl — and more — from wherever you already work. Your dashboard, your Slack, or straight from Claude or ChatGPT. Same agent, same guardrails.
Not autocomplete
Most “AI billing” is a button that writes an email. This isn't that.
You've seen the other version. A little sparkle icon that drafts a reminder for you to copy-paste. That's autocomplete wearing a marketing badge.
Handl’s agent is an operator. It has 129 tools — the same actions you’d take in the app, and a few you can’t do by hand — and it actually uses them. Create a project, set up milestones, draft and send the invoice, chase the late payer, answer the client’s “what’s this charge?”, pull the aging report. Not suggest. Do.
It runs on Gemini 3.5 Flash, eval-tested before every release, and every action runs inside autonomy settings you control. You're not handing over the keys. You're hiring a billing person who never forgets, never gets awkward about money, and asks before doing anything you haven't signed off.
Three doors, one agent
Three doors. One agent.
The agent isn't trapped in a chat box on your dashboard. It's the same operator, reachable three ways — and it remembers the conversation across all of them.
In the dashboard
The full Handl app with the agent sat in the middle of it. Ask it to set up a project, fix an invoice, or tell you who owes you money — while you watch it work.
In Slack
DM the bot or @mention it in a channel. “Create a project for Acme, 3 milestones, $12k.” “Who's overdue?” “Send the deposit invoice.” Approve its proposals from a button without opening a tab.
More on Handl for Slack→From any AI tool
Handl speaks MCP, so you can run your billing straight from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor. Your whole operation, as tools an AI can call.
More on Handl + MCP→Same agent, same 129 tools, same autonomy rules, same memory — whichever door you walk through. That's not three integrations bolted on. It's one operator with three front doors.
What it does
What it actually does
It runs the billing, not just the messages
Create projects, set milestones, draft and send invoices, record payments, build payment schedules, manage clients and contacts, pull reports.
It watches and chases
Overdue invoices get followed up on your schedule, escalating in tone, written to sound like you.
It answers the client
“When's my next invoice?”, “can I split this?” — answered from real project history, in the portal, before it reaches your inbox.
It reads the messy stuff
Hand it a signed proposal — a PDF or a photo — and it pulls the scope, milestones and money and sets the project up.
It proposes, you approve
Anything that moves money goes through the proposal queue: the agent drafts, you get an Approve / Reject card, in-app or in Slack.
You're in control
You set how much rope it gets
Configurable autonomy, per action. You start cautious and loosen the reins as you learn to trust it — day one it suggests, month two it runs the boring 80% on its own and only bothers you for the calls that actually need a human.
Suggest only
The agent drafts everything, you approve every send.
Auto-send, you watch
Invoices and reminders go out, you get notified.
Full autonomy, per client
Set trusted clients to fully hands-off.
Hard limits
Caps on amounts, clients it can't touch, actions it can never take without you.
Same agent, same 129 tools, same autonomy rules, same memory — whichever door you walk through.
Pricing
It's the core of Handl, not an add-on
No “AI tier,” no per-message pricing, no surprise bill. The agent is in every plan, from $29/mo up. It's not a feature of the product. It is the product.
