In one line
PBC collection is where audit timelines slip: dozens of items, several client contacts, and a manual chase. Alkmist automates the reminders against a structured PBC list, screens files on arrival, escalates the overdue, and stops chasing the received, with a clean trail for the file.
PBC collection that finishes itself
Four capabilities turn a PBC list from a chase into a workflow.
Structured PBC list
One tracked list, reusable
Build the provided-by-client list once as a template, one tracked item per document, and roll it forward each engagement.

Frequently asked questions
What is automated PBC reminder software?
It is software that chases provided-by-client requests automatically. You build a structured PBC list, and the system reminds clients about outstanding items on a schedule, escalates the overdue, and stops once an item is received.
How does Alkmist automate PBC reminders?
Alkmist runs reminders on a behavioral schedule against each tracked PBC item. Overdue items escalate, received items stop chasing, and clients upload against each request through controlled, screened sharing.
Does it keep an audit trail for PBC items?
Yes. Every access, upload, and status change is logged immutably with actor and timestamp, giving each PBC item a complete history for the file.
Is PBC data kept secure and in the EU?
Yes. Uploads are encrypted and screened, Alkmist is ISO 27001 certified and GDPR compliant, and client data is kept on EU infrastructure.
