The sorting is done before you get up
Meetings, deadlines closing in, files that have stopped moving — what matters fits in a few lines. On the days when nothing needs you, Otto stays quiet.
For small business owners
Otto does not run a script. Tell it what you want and it figures out how to get there — sorting the morning mail, filing a receipt, chasing a customer who has gone quiet, building the deck for your next meeting. Write to Otto the way you would write to a chief of staff. Nothing that commits your business goes out without your approval.
The surface
Otto lives in the app you already open fifty times a day. It raises the subject, shows you what it has prepared and waits for your word before acting. Answer in one line — or with a voice note — and the work gets done.
No app to install, no extra password, no interface to get used to.
Illustration: a WhatsApp conversation in the morning. Otto reports two past-due invoices worth €4,520 and explains that it has prepared a friendly follow-up for the first one and a firm follow-up for the second, noting that nothing goes out until the owner approves. The owner replies to send both. Otto confirms that the follow-ups are out, that each one is logged and that it will flag the first payment.
A day with Otto
None of these are scheduled triggers. Each time, Otto reads the situation, picks the tools it needs and does the work — then stops the moment a call is yours to make.
Meetings, deadlines closing in, files that have stopped moving — what matters fits in a few lines. On the days when nothing needs you, Otto stays quiet.
Every morning Otto goes through what has not been paid and sets the tone by customer and by how long the invoice has been open. If the silence holds, it drafts a formal demand and brings it to you.
Tag Otto in a WhatsApp group and it opens the agenda, recaps where everyone stands, records the decisions and hands the follow-ups back out.
One last pass before you shut down: what got handled, what is still open, the one call that cannot wait another day. Put the phone down — Otto keeps watching.
What Otto keeps an eye on
Cash
Flagged the day they come due, with the follow-up already written and waiting on your approval.
Compliance
You hear about every filing — VAT, payroll taxes, returns — while there is still time to act.
Contracts
A month before a contract renews on its own, you know it is coming and you know the last day to opt out.
Team
Miss the date and the probation period turns into a permanent hire. Otto reminds you while the call is still yours.
Customers
A good customer who has not ordered in two months gets flagged while you can still win them back.
Calendar
Your meetings land in the brief, with a useful reminder about the people you are about to see.
Tell Otto to drop one of these and it drops it. Each one can be tuned, paused or switched off in a sentence.
Who decides what
Nothing is sent without your approval, and nothing is written into your data either. You approve the specific action in front of you — never a blank check.
Every action Otto takes is timestamped and logged in your account. You never have to take its word for it: go and look.
Data hosted in the European Union, an isolated environment dedicated to your company and messages encrypted end to end.
Thirty minutes of conversation is usually all it takes. You walk out knowing which tasks Otto would take off your hands, and which ones it would keep bringing back to you.
Otto guides
Otto publishes its collections guides openly, in French: chasing unpaid invoices in France, and in Côte d'Ivoire, under OHADA law. The two bodies of law differ, so the two sets are kept separate.
Otto is an HNTIC product, built on the same conviction as the rest of our systems and applied to the daily operations of a small business: the machine carries the execution, the owner keeps the judgment calls.
