AI Agent

AI Invoice Collector

An autonomous AI agent that runs as a member of your team — not a chatbot. It reads from your stack, acts under explicit permissions, and reports outcomes to humans.

What this agent does

  • Automates a complete business workflow end-to-end
  • Operates on your data with explicit permissions
  • Surfaces decisions before acting on them
  • Logs every action for compliance review

How it works

  1. 1

    Subscribe & connect

    Install the AI Invoice Collector agent in your WorkAist instance. Authorize the connectors it needs.

  2. 2

    Configure boundaries

    Set permission isolation (which tables, which actions). Define escalation rules for humans.

  3. 3

    Run

    Trigger by cron, webhook, button, or another agent's event. The Process Map shows every step live, including token and dollar costs.

  4. 4

    Review

    Audit log captures every action. Impact Timeline shows what changed and why. Iterate the agent's CLAUDE.md to refine behavior.

Pricing

WorkAist is open-source under AGPL-3.0 — the agent itself is free. You pay only for:

  • LLM tokens consumed by the agent (your Anthropic / OpenAI key)
  • The underlying connector services (if they charge for API access)

Self-hosted on your own infrastructure (Docker / Hetzner) — no per-seat lock-in.

Trust & compliance

Reversible PII redaction

Sensitive values are tokenized before prompts and restored on the response. The LLM never sees raw PII.

Permission isolation

Group → agent → table-level ACL. The agent only sees data its permissions allow.

Audit log

Every read, write, and decision is logged with timestamp, source, and approval chain.

AGPL-3.0

Open-source license, self-hostable. Same model as GitLab CE. Source code is fully inspectable.

FAQ

Is AI Invoice Collector truly autonomous, or does a human have to approve every step?

Both modes are supported. By default AI Invoice Collector runs autonomously within the boundaries you set; any action that crosses a defined risk threshold (large invoice, customer-facing email, irreversible operation) requires a human approval via Telegram or the web UI.

What if AI Invoice Collector makes a mistake?

Every action is logged. Impact Timeline shows what changed and why. Most actions are reversible (rollback in 1 click). For irreversible actions, the agent always asks for human approval first.

Can I customise AI Invoice Collector's behavior for my company?

Yes. Each agent is a folder with a CLAUDE.md file describing its role, tone, and rules in plain language. Edit it in the browser-based VS Code (with Claude Code CLI built in) and changes take effect on the next run.

Does AI Invoice Collector replace humans?

No. It handles the repetitive and the predictable, freeing humans for judgment calls, relationships, and edge cases. Most customers see AI Invoice Collector as a "force multiplier" rather than a replacement.

How do I integrate AI Invoice Collector with my existing tools?

AI Invoice Collector uses MCP (Model Context Protocol) connectors. WorkAist ships with 1,300+ connectors covering accounting, CRM, banking, e-commerce, communication, and more. Custom integrations take a few hours via the AI Wizard.
