Energy investments is what started this all. See how Energy Investments is able to save 20 hours a month and have more control over their spending.
Energy Investments was founded in 1995 by my dad, who had worked as a landman at Mobil. It was a small, family-run oil and gas company focused on upstream operations in Colorado and Kansas. Over the years, my mom supported the business behind the scenes while raising our family and working as a nurse.
In 2019, as the business transitioned into a new chapter, my mom stepped into a leadership role. Around that same time, I had just returned from a mission in Argentina and was wrapping up a degree in entrepreneurship at BYU. I started getting more involved in the operations — and that’s when we realized just how outdated and chaotic things were behind the scenes.
Invoices came in by email and mail. We were managing approvals through inboxes and tracking expenses in spreadsheets. Partner communication was slow. Payments were unclear. And everything depended on our bookkeeper.
We didn’t have transparency. We didn’t have control. And we didn’t have a system that actually worked for a small operator like us.
Like a lot of small operators, our back office ran on duct tape:
We knew we needed something better.
Step one was switching to Quorum ODA as our accounting system. That helped with structure and well-level accounting. But it didn’t solve our biggest pain: AP workflows.
So I built Joltly.
At first, it was just for us — a way to fix the chaos at Energy Investments. But once it started working, we realized this wasn’t just a fix for our business. This was something that could help a lot of operators like us.
Since implementing Joltly, Energy Investments has seen real, measurable improvements across the board:
âś… Accounts Payable processing time cut by 80%
Manual workflows were replaced with automated approvals and well-level coding — reducing the time it takes to close out invoices from days to hours.
âś… Vendor payment visibility unlocked
No more wondering if or when vendors got paid. Everything is tracked, searchable, and confirmed in a couple clicks.
âś… Partner questions answered in seconds
Previously, answering “Did you pay that water hauler yet?” required digging through reports. Now it takes 30 seconds — and zero emails to the bookkeeper.
âś… Bookkeeper dependency drastically reduced
Everyone on the team can see what’s going on — without needing a full-time AP manager or calling someone to run a report.
âś… No new hires needed, even as operations grew
The team is managing more assets with fewer headaches — and no additional staff
“If I can use it, anybody can.”
— Wendi Chamberlain, President, Energy Investments
“I can see payments by vendor, by well, by date — all in one place. It’s made running this business so much easier.”
— Harrison Chamberlain, COO of Energy Investments & Co-Founder of Joltly
We’re now working with other operators — and they’re seeing the same results we did. If your AP process is still manual, buried in inboxes, or overly dependent on one person — it’s time for something better.

You only pay for what you use — no seat fees and no modules you don't need. Pricing is a monthly platform fee plus usage on documents processed, ACH payments, mailed checks, and the workflows you turn on. We size it to your actual monthly close so it scales with the work, not your headcount.
A smaller operator running 25 documents, 10 ACH payments, and 2 mailed checks a month would be priced on that exact volume. A larger operator at 100 documents, 50 ACH payments, and 10 checks pays predictably more. You always know what you're spending because it tracks the actual close.
Joltly connects directly to QuickBooks and Quorum On-Demand Accounting, and supports file-based export workflows for systems like PakEnergy and Integra. It manages accounts, items, vendors, partner mappings, JIB clearing, revenue liabilities, and netting accounts inside your existing setup.
Both sides of settlement. On expenses: invoice review, GL coding, approvals, JIB creation, ACH and check payments. On revenue: statement OCR, partner distributions, remittance emails, and netting between JIB receivables and revenue payouts — so your team replaces spreadsheet work and email follow-up during close.
Yes. Your wells, partners, revenue interests, GL mappings, approval flow, export formats, and partner-facing statements are configured per operator. Most customers go live on their existing chart of accounts and ERP setup — no rebuild required.
