Intelligent Software remains compassionate while escalating engagement with debtors to get unpaid invoices settled.

ALBANY, N.Y., Feb. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Captira Analytical LLC has unveiled its latest offering: Carol Collect, an intelligent and compassionate software solution designed specifically for small and medium-sized enterprises grappling with the challenge of managing their customers’ unpaid invoices. Addressing the significant impact of revenue loss and disrupted cash flow many smaller businesses are experiencing directly due to their customers not paying unpaid and long-overdue invoices, the solution provides a comprehensive ‘out-of-the-box’ solution to help business owners.

Suitable for businesses of any size, the software is particularly beneficial to companies that lack dedicated staff to follow up with clients and chase unpaid invoices. Carol Collect automates key steps and processes while leveraging an established technology stack built by Captira Analytical to serve its national client base in other industries. With a track record of processing over $75 million of businesses’ outstanding debt, Carol Collect prioritizes first-party collection methods, diverging from the conventional practice of outsourcing debt to third-party collectors once beyond a certain DSO point.

Carol Collect uses a series of predefined processes encompassing consistent and repetitive engagement, using reminders, escalating tone and urgency, as well as collection efforts over a series of interactions. The software effectively manages clients’ overdue or unpaid invoices on behalf of a business while regularly providing updates and reporting exceptions.

“We built Carol Collect when we ourselves realized just how many of our customers had unpaid invoices in their own businesses,” said Justin Scott, Captira Analytical’s Chief Revenue Officer. “At its core, the software considers the value of the relationship between creditors and debtors and seeks to maintain that. Carol is, in effect, compassionate but automatically escalates engagement when needed. The win-win is succeeding in resolving the debt and boosting cash flow while maintaining valuable relationships and providing debtors an array of options to resolve their debt.”

In contrast to the impersonal nature of third-party collections, Carol Collect offers a human-centric approach, recognizing the complexities surrounding debtor circumstances and the potential reputational risks associated with aggressive debt collection practices.

Carol Collect offers a subscription-free per-invoice pricing option, enabling businesses with fewer than 100 overdue invoices to access Carol Collect’s full suite of features for a nominal fee of only 99 cents per uploaded invoice. As businesses scale, there are affordable options to help grow with the business.

FranklinWH Introduces Enhanced 15 kWh aPower in Australia and New Zealand

Expansion comes as policy shifts and rising power costs accelerate demand for residential energy storage

SYDNEY, May 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — FranklinWH, a leading provider of whole-home energy management and battery storage solutions, today announced the launch of its enhanced 15 kWh aPower battery in Australia and New Zealand, as demand for residential energy storage continues to grow, driven by evolving policy settings and increasing interest in energy independence.

The updated aPower builds on the company’s established platform, increasing usable capacity from 13.6 kWh to 15 kWh and raising warrantied throughput from 43 MWh to 60 MWh, an increase of 40 percent. These updates deliver more usable energy over the life of the system while maintaining the same footprint and price.

“The energy landscape is shifting quickly, and more homeowners are thinking beyond the upfront specs to what really pays off over time,” said Steve Ruskin, General Manager of FranklinWH Australia. “This upgrade is about delivering more performance over the life of the system, more usable energy, greater throughput, while staying true to our ‘buy once, buy right’ philosophy.”

The increase in warrantied throughput translates into savings for homeowners. Based on typical usage patterns and an electricity rate of A$0.35 per kilowatt-hour, the additional throughput may represent up to approximately A$5,950 in value over the lifetime of the system. The increase in usable capacity also improves energy density, lowering the effective cost per kilowatt-hour and supporting more efficient use of stored energy.

The 15 kWh configuration also aligns with current and upcoming policy frameworks benefitting residential battery adoption. This includes the updated Cheaper Home Batteries Program, with changes coming into effect for Australian homeowners from 1 May, 2026, helping households maximise value as incentives continue to evolve.

As the residential battery market expands, FranklinWH continues to focus on reliability and system performance. The aPower incorporates design elements to support durability, including structural reinforcement to reduce cell stress over time, per-cell temperature monitoring, and the separation of the battery pack and control systems to maintain reliable performance.

“We believe performance should be measured over years, not just at installation,” Ruskin added. “We focus on building systems that deliver consistent, reliable results over time. That long-term perspective is what ultimately defines value for homeowners.”

The aPower is designed to operate as part of the FranklinWH System, an integrated home energy management platform that coordinates energy generation, storage, and consumption. The system is designed to optimise multiple energy inputs, provide reliable backup power, and support more efficient and independent energy use at the household level.

About FranklinWH

FranklinWH Energy Storage is the manufacturer of the FranklinWH System. FranklinWH is a market-oriented, research-driven company focused on next-generation residential energy management and storage solutions. Located in Macquarie Park, Sydney with a global head office in the San Francisco Bay Area, FranklinWH’s team has decades of experience in energy systems, from design, through manufacturing, to sales and installation.
