Recovery AI is Atoa’s AI-powered collections assistant that helps you follow up on pending payments—automatically. It makes polite, professional calls to your customers, shares SMS payment links during the call, tracks the outcome, and updates your Atoa dashboard in real time.

How does it work?
You can enable AI follow-up calls in two ways, either in bulk for all customers using a .csv upload or individually while creating payment links.
Option 1: Enable AI calls for every customer (bulk upload)
Download the template: Get our .csv template and fill in your customer details. This will include the name, phone number, amount due, and due date, email, payment details, notes, and an invoice link.
Let AI take over: Once the file is uploaded, Recovery AI will automatically make follow-up calls based on system prompts and any notes you provide. You can test and tweak these notes to match your tone and style.
Track outcomes: Call results are shown in real time on your dashboard, including statuses like Paid, Promised to pay, Refused, and more.
Option 2: Enable AI calls for individual payment links
When creating a one-off payment link in Atoa:
-
Tick the checkbox for “Remind with an AI call”
-
AI calls will only be made if the customer’s phone number is included
This option gives you flexibility to use Recovery AI only where you need it.
When does Recovery AI call customers?
Recovery AI makes calls on:
-
The due date, and
-
Any reminder dates you've set
Note: If a customer requests a callback during an AI call, Recovery AI will automatically call them back on the date they specify. No manual follow-up needed.
How do I manage the tone or message used by Recovery AI?
By default, Recovery AI speaks in a friendly, professional, and polite manner.
To customise what it says:
-
Go to the Recovery AI page on Atoa
-
Click on Call settings (top right)
-
Under Additional context, add notes such as tone of voice, payment plan details, specific instructions, etc.

These notes help the AI tailor its call script while staying within its boundaries.
How do I check the outcome of each call?
