Alongside your teamAbout a month

Your team sees it working before it takes over.

On its ownSupport by agreement

Then it runs on its own. New suppliers go on your list as you grow.

Invoices waiting, once the work is done
ProcessedStatementsNeeds attention

Everything agreed in writing, first.

The proposal sets out what it will do, what it won’t, what it connects to, and the price. Open any part to see what goes in it.

Your proposal

What it will do

Your inboxes, your supplier list, the destination for each supplier, and any Needs attention rules you want.

What it won’t do

Written down, so both sides know exactly where it stops. Approving and paying stay with your team.

What it connects to

Your email provider and the places your invoices go: an AP workflow, a person or a category inbox.

What it needs from you

Access to the accounts inbox, your supplier list, and example invoices to test with.

How it’s signed off

Tested on your own documents, then run alongside your team before it runs on its own.

Support

Ongoing support by agreement. New suppliers and destinations are added as you grow.

Price

Fixed, and agreed before the build starts.

Built to be checked.

Changes go through you

Before you book.

How much does it cost?

A fixed price, set out in a proposal after the first call.

How long does it take?

Build time depends on how many inboxes you have and the software you use. It then usually runs alongside your team for about a month.

What if things change later?

New suppliers and destinations go on your list as you grow. Bigger changes are agreed with you first.

Start with a call.

Bring your supplier list and a few example invoices, including the awkward ones.
