McpStamp Dunning Letters

Automated payment reminders for overdue invoices

In the [official MCP Registry](https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0.1/servers/io.github.theluckystrike%2Fdunning-letters/versions/latest) (io.github.theluckystrike/dunning-letters). Chase overdue invoices without losing the thread. Register an unpaid invoice, client, invoice reference, amount in integer cents, currency, due date, and the server runs the escalation ladder: reminder 1 (polite, due + 7 days), reminder 2 (firm, with the late fees note, due + 14), and the final notice (before-action wording, due + 21; the gaps are configurable per invoice). For each stage it generates the letter, as Markdown or as a self-contained printable HTML page. It records what you sent and when, lists everything overdue with days late and stage, ages the whole register into current/30/60/90+ buckets, and answers "what do I need to send today". Nothing is emailed or sent anywhere: this server produces the letter text, and sending it is your act.

Tools

Free vs Pro

The cap is on how many chases run at once, never on the letters or the aging: three late payers taken from first reminder to final notice is a real chase list, and an invoice that gets paid frees its slot. What is metered is breadth, a fourth concurrent chase is a collections workload, not a freelancer's month.

Get Pro: https://mcp.zovo.one/buy/dunning-letters, $19 one-time for this server, or $39 for the bundle.

A measured insight

The ladder is anchored to the due date, not to the last letter, and the two drift apart exactly when chasing is going badly.

The worked chase in test/_client.mjs: USD 1,250.00 due 2026-06-01, gaps 7/14/21, so the letters fall due on 06-08, 06-15 and 06-22 whether or not anything was sent. If reminder 1 actually goes out late, say 06-20, twelve days after its date, a previous-letter-anchored ladder would push the final notice to 07-11. This one does not: 06-22 stands, because the client's obligation was fixed by the due date, not by when you got around to writing. Recording a sending moves only which stage is next; it never moves the schedule. The letters are also strictly sequential: an invoice 60 days late with nothing sent is still owed reminder 1, because a final notice that no polite letter preceded reads as a threat, not a chase.

The late fee is measured the same way, once: simple interest, pro-rata on a 30-day month, on the amount outstanding on the day the letter is written, rounded once to the minor unit. On the worked chase that is 125,000 minor units at 2% over 30 days late, 2,500 exactly, and after a 50,000 part payment it is 1,500 on the 75,000 that remains, so the final notice asks for 76,500 and no invented figure more.

Privacy

All data stays local, in ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/mcp-servers/dunning-letters/. Two files: invoices.json, counter.json. Nothing is sent anywhere, no account, no API key, no network call in this server at all, and the letters are rendered to text for you to send yourself; this server holds no mail credentials and wants none. License keys are verified offline.

Frequently asked questions

Is there an MCP server for payment reminders or dunning letters?

Yes. The dunning-letters server at mcp.zovo.one automates accounts-receivable follow-up: tiered reminder sequences (friendly, firm, final), printable PDF letters, per-customer aging. Free tier, hosted remote endpoint.

How do I send payment reminders from Claude?

Connect https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/dunning-letters and say: 'List overdue invoices and draft a firm reminder for Acme.' The letter follows the standard tier sequence and exports as PDF.
