How It Works

Get your FreshBooks AI Receptionist up and running in minutes.

1

Open the FONE app and add FreshBooks to any agents that need it.

2

Configure the integration settings and integration prompt in the FONE app.

3

Your AI starts answering invoice and payment questions on chat and WhatsApp with live FreshBooks data.

Key Features

Everything your AI needs to handle FreshBooks inquiries like a pro.

Invoice Lookup

Your AI searches FreshBooks invoices by client name, invoice number, or amount — reading status, due dates, and line-item details.

Client Lookup

Your AI reads client records — outstanding balances, payment history, contact details, and project information from your FreshBooks account.

Payment Status

A client can check whether a payment was received, an invoice is overdue, or a credit was applied — your AI reads live data from FreshBooks.

Read-Only by Design

The FreshBooks integration reads your books; it cannot create, edit, or send invoices, or change any financial record.

See It in Action

Here's how your AI Receptionist for FreshBooks handles a real conversation.

Caller

Hey, I just want to make sure my payment went through for the website project.

AI Agent

I can check that. What's the name on the account?

Caller

Brightside Marketing.

AI Agent

Found it — invoice #1203 for $4,500 for the website redesign shows a payment received on March 10th, paid in full, no outstanding balance. Would you like a receipt sent to the email on file?

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my financial data secure?
Yes. Read-only API access with encrypted credentials. Your AI can look up invoices and clients but cannot create, modify, or delete any financial records.
How is this different from the QuickBooks integration?
Same concept, different platform. If you use FreshBooks for invoicing, this integration lets your AI answer client questions about invoices, payments, and balances.
Can it read recurring invoices?
Yes. Your AI can read recurring invoice schedules and amounts so a client can check their next billing date, recurring total, and payment method on file.
Does the lookup work on phone calls?
The FreshBooks lookup runs on text channels — web chat, Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. On a phone call your AI still books, transfers, and takes messages; the live FreshBooks query is a chat-surface capability.
Can it send invoices?
No. Your AI has read-only access to existing invoices and payment data. Creating and sending invoices remains in your control within FreshBooks.

Built for Practice Management & Accountants

Your AI receptionist works your client list — surfacing status, chasing documents, and logging every call — so your team stays on the work.

For your firm

  • Stay on deadline work. Routine "where's my return?" and "what do you need from me?" calls are answered automatically, so staff aren't pulled off prep during the busy season.
  • Nothing falls through. Every inbound call is logged to the client record — caller, topic, and follow-up — so the whole team has a complete history.
  • Coverage that scales. After-hours and overflow calls are handled 24/7 without adding front-desk headcount as your book grows.

For your clients

  • Real answers. Clients hear their actual return, project, or document status instead of waiting on hold or for a callback.
  • Always reachable. Questions get answered evenings and weekends, not just during office hours.
  • Clear next steps. Clients are told exactly which documents or approvals are still outstanding and how to provide them.
