AI Agent
Accounts Payable Agent
The Accounts Payable Agent automates invoice and AP processing — it reads every invoice, matches it to the purchase order and receipt, flags exceptions and duplicates, and routes only what genuinely needs a human, posting clean invoices straight to your ERP.
The problem it solves
Accounts payable is a manual grind. Someone keys invoices by hand, hunts for the matching purchase order, chases approvals, and catches errors by eye — slowly, and not always. Duplicate and fraudulent invoices slip through, month-end close drags on, and the cost of processing each invoice adds up across thousands of them.
How it works
- Reads every invoice, in any format, and extracts the header and line items.
- Performs two- and three-way matching against the purchase order and goods receipt.
- Flags exceptions, duplicates, and anomalies for human review.
- Routes approvals and posts clean, coded invoices to your ERP.
What you get
- Invoice processing time and cost cut sharply
- Duplicate and fraudulent payments caught before they go out
- Faster, smoother month-end close
- Your team focused on exceptions, not data entry
Where it fits
- High invoice volume — thousands of invoices across many vendors.
- Complex matching — purchase orders, receipts, and multi-line invoices.
- Shared-service finance — consistent processing at scale.
- Fraud and duplicate prevention — catch what manual review misses.
