Read invoices into the accounting system
AI reads incoming invoices, checks them against purchase orders, and records them in the accounting system. Invoices whose amounts differ wait for approval.
The problem today
Every month, staff open hundreds of invoices and type the supplier, amount, and due date into the accounting system. Every supplier uses a different layout, so checking for typing errors takes time too.

What AI does
Reads supplier, amount, and due date from invoices in any layout. For each value, you can see the part of the invoice it came from.
Where people decide
Staff check only invoices that do not match the purchase order and fields read with low confidence, then approve the entry.
