DocChase Rule Engine
Configurable automated document chaser that avoids turning into spam
- Problem
- When businesses automate chasing missing documents (invoices, contracts), simple scheduled reminder emails easily become spam and annoy clients/colleagues; complex rules (stop on receipt, context-aware) are needed for effective and polite chasing.
- Solution
- A rule engine that lets users define chasing logic: check inbox or upload folder for documents and stop automatically on receipt; supports conditional branches, frequency limits, and custom templates to ensure polite and effective chasing.
- Users
- Finance/admin staff at SMBs and teams needing to follow up on documents
- MVP
- Configure chasing tasks and rules; monitor email/folders; auto-send reminders and track status; simple dashboard
- Revenue
- Subscription based on number of contacts or chasing tasks
- Why now
- Rising demand for office automation but generic tools lack fine-grained rules; indie developers can build quickly on email APIs
