Slate replaces the paper credit book. You note who took out a credit order, how much, and since when. At a glance, you know what's owed. With a tap, you send a reminder. That's all.
Designed for the business owner: the grocer, the shopkeeper, the neighborhood vendor. Not for an accountant. We speak your language: "He took," "He paid," "All paid." No bank jargon.
WHAT Slate DOES FOR YOU
• Record a bill in seconds. Did the customer take €5 or 3000 FCFA? You write it down, it's recorded.
• See at a glance what's owed. The total is displayed prominently at the top. No need to search.
• Send reminders without hesitation. A WhatsApp or SMS message ready to send, written respectfully. Never any pressure, never any threats.
• Recognize your customers by their photo. No need to read carefully: the customer's face is enough to identify them.
• Track each invoice over time. You know how long you've been owed and what's already been paid.
MADE FOR THE REALITY OF THE SHOP
• Works without a network connection. The tab works offline, always. The network cuts out? You keep recording.
• Large buttons, large numbers. Readable in bright sunlight, usable with your hands full, in a noisy shop.
• Designed for everyone. Large characters, voice reading of name and balance, excellent contrast.
• Euro or CFA Franc. Choose your currency. Designed for Mayotte, Réunion, and French-speaking Africa.
YOUR DATA IS YOURS
• Everything stays on your phone, encrypted. Your customers, your amounts: no one else has access.
• Encrypted cloud backup, optional. Change phones? Lose it? You'll find your tab. The saved data is unreadable to anyone but you.
• No data sales. We never resell anything. No advertising.
• Anonymous statistics are disabled by default. If you enable them, they are anonymous and only help improve the app.
HONEST ABOUT WHAT ARDOISE IS NOT
Ardoise is not a debt collection agency. No scoring, no "bad payer" databases, no pressure on your clients. It's a notebook, not a weapon. The relationship with your client remains yours.
FREE, UNLIMITED
Ardoise is free and unlimited in terms of clients. No in-app purchases, no subscriptions, no advertising.
Ardoise is the credit book, but better: as simple as paper, but it never forgets or gets lost.
Your credit book: who owes what, since when, revived in one step.
