FOR FRANCHISORS AND FRANCHISE PORTFOLIOS

Every invoice cites the clause that authorizes it.

Billright generates franchisee invoices from the agreements that govern them, attaches the citation to every line, and holds anything it can't substantiate for review instead of guessing at it. Nobody has to take the total on faith.

    THE PROBLEM

    Two symptoms. One root cause.

    UNDERBILLING

    Rate step-ups get missed

    Scheduled increases don't apply. Discounts outlive their end date. Amendments change terms that never make it into the billing run. Nobody knows the scale, because checking means reading every agreement against every invoice.

    INBOUND QUESTIONS

    The answer already exists

    A franchisee questions a charge. The answer is sitting in an agreement signed years ago, in a section nobody has open. Answering it is a document retrieval exercise, repeated indefinitely, by a person.

    The invoice does not carry its own justification. It states an amount and asks to be trusted. Billright closes that gap by generating the invoice from the justification, instead of adding one after the fact.

    THE PRODUCT

    Three things, not one.

    Most billing tools do one of these. Billright treats them as a single system, because they share one source: the documents.

    I

    Invoice Generation

    Every line is built from the agreement, amendment, or fee schedule that authorizes it, and applied on the date it takes effect. Accuracy stops depending on periodic audit and becomes a property of how the invoice is made.

    J

    Justification

    The citation ships with the invoice. Franchisee questions get answered at the source, at any hour, with the clause on screen, without the billing team opening a document.

    R

    Revenue Assurance

    Missed step-ups, expired discounts, and charges no document authorizes surface as a byproduct of generating the invoice this way. Nobody has to go looking for them.

    HOW IT WORKS

    Four steps, in order.

    The sequence matters: an invoice can't cite a document it hasn't read yet, and a line can't be flagged until it's been checked against something.

    01

    Ingest

    Agreements, amendments, fee schedules, and prior invoices come in as they exist. PDF, Word, Excel, scans. Nothing needs to be reformatted first.

    02

    Generate

    Each line is built from the governing rule, with the effective date and the arithmetic attached before the invoice exists.

    03

    Cite

    Every charge links back to the source document, the section, and the exact clause, right on the franchisee's own view of the invoice.

    04

    Flag

    A line nobody's document can support is held for review and excluded from the total. It isn't guessed at, and it isn't dropped.

    WHAT IT FINDS

    It does not guess. It flags.

    When a billed rate doesn't match any document in the corpus, Billright doesn't quietly correct it, and it doesn't accept it either. It marks the line Needs review, cites the only rate it can support, and states plainly what it couldn't locate.

    A single variance like that is a curiosity. Two fees on the same statement, drifting in opposite directions, every month, for over a year, is a signal. That pattern usually has one explanation: a schedule exists somewhere and was never connected to the invoice. Billright doesn't just find the two broken lines. It names the one missing document that would resolve both.

    A variance is reviewed once, not every month. Once it's resolved, the answer becomes a rule with an effective date, and every invoice it governs reconciles cleanly from that point forward.

    FOR THE FRANCHISEE

    The invoice answers its own questions.

    Access is a secure link. No portal account, no password. Every charge can be opened to see the clause behind it, and FINN, a grounded assistant scoped to that franchisee's own agreements, answers follow-up questions with a citation, at any hour, without anyone on the billing team getting pulled in.

    Why did my royalty fee go up this period?

    PRICING

    Priced by location, not by invoice.

    No per-invoice fee. No per-line fee. No charge for franchisee seats, questions asked, or documents stored. The rate per location goes down as the portfolio gets bigger.

    Locations 151 and up
    Third bracket
    $65/location/mo
    Each bracket applies only to the locations inside it, plus a flat monthly platform fee sized to the portfolio and quoted directly. A 220-location portfolio pays the $110 rate on the first 50, the $85 rate on the next 100, and the $65 rate on the remaining 70.

    Setup, one time

    A flat fee per distinct agreement. Each governing document is read once, regardless of how many locations operate under it.

    A per-location validation fee. Scales with the number of properties being onboarded and confirms each one against its own documents.
