How it works

1

Capture

Invoices arrive by email, PDF upload or scanned post and are picked up automatically, regardless of layout or supplier.

2

Extract

Line items, totals, VAT and supplier details are read and validated against what the invoice should contain.

3

Match

The invoice is checked against the purchase order and the goods receipt. Anything that lines up moves on without a person touching it.

4

Post

Matched invoices are posted straight into finance or ERP. Mismatches go to a queue with the reason already attached.

What it delivers

Invoices posted in hours instead of days, with early payment discounts recovered rather than missed.

Only exceptions reach a person, so the accounts payable team spends its time on the invoices that actually need judgement.

A complete, timestamped trail from PDF to posted transaction for every invoice, audit-ready by default.
