Invoice Processing Automation

From inbox to paid — in record time.

The Problem

  • • Manual data entry from PDF invoices leads to errors and delays.
  • • Chasing managers for approvals creates bottlenecks in payment cycles.
  • • Purchase order mismatches require time-consuming manual reconciliation.

What This Blueprint Does

Avery, your AI AP Specialist, automates the entire accounts payable workflow from email receipt to payment. Uses OCR to extract invoice data, validates against POs, routes for approval, and triggers payment processing in your ERP system.

  • → Monitors dedicated AP inbox and extracts invoice attachments from incoming emails.
  • → AI-powered OCR extracts vendor name, amounts, dates, and line items from PDF.
  • → Validates extracted data for completeness and accuracy, flags anomalies for review.
  • → Creates payment record in ERP and schedules payment via integrated banking system.
