Why a former CFO built agents to chase invoices

As CFO of GetAccept, Rasmus Areskoug watched several people on his team spend their days answering invoice emails and chasing late payers. He and Andreas Åström built Paraglide to give that work to AI agents.

The story

A full inbox

Rasmus Areskoug started out as a growth investor, then spent nearly five years at GetAccept, a Malmö sales software company, ending as its CFO. GetAccept had thousands of customers, and their billing questions came to finance. Answering them and chasing payment filled whole working days. He saw customers pay late as a matter of routine, ignore the automatic reminders, or hunt for a small error on an invoice to buy time. Very little of it was accounting. Almost all of it was conversation.

From investor to founder

In 2024 he switched sides, joining the venture firm that had led GetAccept's Series A as its Head of Nordics. There he focused on AI agents for back-office work and watched such agents spread through customer service. Receivables, he saw, were the same kind of job. He teamed up with Andreas Åström, who had led engineering at GetAccept. On July 31, 2025, they incorporated the company in London as Snowpath AI; that September it took the name Paraglide. Areskoug describes it as a blend of an AI support agent and an outbound AI sales rep, applied to receivables. The team works from London and Malmö.

Agents in the inbox

Today Paraglide's agents sit in a company's finance inbox, linked to its ERP, CRM, billing system and email. The Billing Support Agent answers invoice questions in the customer's language, sends requested documents, collects missing PO numbers and logs promise-to-pay dates. The Collection Agent runs the reminder conversation inside existing threads, finds a new contact when an address bounces and escalates when a case needs judgment. Other agents handle disputes, procurement portals such as Ariba and Coupa, and payment matching. Each team decides where an agent acts alone and where a person approves. Disputes and payment plans go to a human, with the full thread attached.

Inbox zero in a week

An early customer was close to home. Before Paraglide, GetAccept's finance inbox often held more than 100 open tickets. With help from NetSuite consultancy Noresca, it connected Paraglide to Oracle NetSuite. Within a week the inbox was empty, which finance operations manager Stephanie Cronqvist says had not happened in six years. Choco, an ordering platform for food wholesalers, ran collections through local teams in six countries, each with its own spreadsheet. It switched Paraglide on in the UK and Spain first and kept its old process in the US, Germany and France. Choco's finance director reports a 34% reduction in DSO within 14 days of deployment.

Beyond the Nordics

In January 2026 Paraglide announced $5 million in seed funding. Its customers now range from Ardoq, an Oslo software company, to Gorilla Gasket, an industrial supplier in Artesia, New Mexico. Paraglide's case studies report that Ardoq cut receivables over 60 days old by 66% from their February peak to late July 2026, and that Gorilla Gasket's DSO fell from 69.3 days in March to 42.6 in August. In July, Dublin-based AccountsIQ agreed to bring Paraglide's agents into its accounting software, and in August the UK's Chartered Institute of Credit Management made Paraglide a corporate partner. Areskoug expects credit teams to do less of the work and spend more time approving what agents produce.
