Catch Vendor Overcharges Before You Pay
When a vendor invoices $140/case but the PO says $130 — you want to know before approving payment. The engine compares every line, flags overcharges, and quantifies the leakage.
Every line compared against agreed pricing — variance quantified in currency.

AI reads every line item from the invoice — unit price, extended amount, quantity. Works on any format without templates.
Each invoice line price is compared against the corresponding PO line. Variance calculated as percentage deviation.
Default 2% tolerance. Configurable per vendor, category, or commodity. Variances within tolerance auto-approve.
Over-charges are calculated: (invoice price − PO price) × quantity = leakage per line. Aggregated by vendor, period, and category.
Not header-level totals — actual unit price comparison at the line-item level. Catches padding hidden in individual lines.
Compares against both PO terms AND expected cost (product master). Detects cases where POs were issued at inflated rates.
Tracks price changes over time per vendor and commodity. Flags gradual creep that stays within single-invoice tolerance but compounds over months.
When contracts define pricing tiers or fixed rates, the engine validates invoices against contracted prices — not just POs.
Without POs, the engine uses historical pricing baselines — comparing this invoice against the same vendor's past invoices for the same items. Statistical outliers are flagged.
Yes. The rules engine supports tolerances at global, category, vendor, and individual item levels. More specific rules override general ones.
Duplicate detection catches the same invoice submitted twice. Price variance catches legitimate invoices that overcharge versus the agreed price.
Read-only connection. We review a sample of your invoices, agreements and supplier spend, then hand back a findings report with specific figures. If there is nothing to recover, there is nothing to pay.
