Peak Automations / Payment recovery
The payment failed.Nobody noticed.
A declined card or a bounced direct debit often only shows up at month-end close. Peak Automations knows the trigger “payment failed”. It becomes a note in the Inbox, a task for the person in charge and, if you want, an AI draft of a friendly message to the customer. Sending through Gmail waits for your confirmation.

From failure to resolution
Ownership first. Then the message.
The sample rule: if your response to failures feels slow at 0 to 6, first settle who is in charge. From 7 up it pays to describe the automation right away.
