Accounts payable automation that reads, codes and routes invoices

Accounts payable runs on manual handling. Invoices arrive by email, someone keys in the vendor and amount, guesses the GL code, routes it for approval by hand, and matches it to a payment later. It is slow, error-prone, and it makes the close drag while invoices sit waiting for attention.

Expenditure brings the same automation to accounts payable that it brings to expenses. It reads each invoice with OCR, codes it to the right GL account, checks it against policy and routes it to the right approver automatically, then syncs the clean record to QuickBooks, Xero or NetSuite. AP data in, coded and approved spend out. It works with the cards and banks you already have, it is bank-grade secure, and it never moves or holds your money, so any payment runs through a licensed banking partner.

Why it works

What your team gets with ap automation

Invoices read by OCR

Vendor, amount, date, tax and line items are pulled from each invoice, so nobody keys them in by hand.

Coded and routed

Each invoice is coded to the right account, policy-checked and sent to the right approver automatically.

Straight to the ledger

Approved invoices sync to QuickBooks, Xero or NetSuite, so AP feeds the close instead of slowing it.
