AP Invoice Automation: Kanverse 24/7 AI Agent is a Game changer

The Traditional AP Invoice Processing Challenges

Traditional AP invoice processing methods rely heavily on manual intervention, which presents several challenges: 

1.   Time-Consuming:  

   Processing hundreds or thousands of invoices manually takes significant time, often days, slowing down the payment cycle and missed early payment discounts.

2.   Compliance and Fraud Issues: 

   Relying on manual processes can make it challenging to identify fraudulent invoices and keep track of different tax laws, regulations, and internal compliance standards.

3.   Operational Costs: 

   Labor-intensive processes lead to higher operational costs, as businesses must allocate more personnel to handle invoices as they scale.

4.   Team morale: 

   Manual and repetitive work on an ongoing basis can affect team morale, especially when processing a large volume of invoices.

5.   Data Entry Errors: 

   Manual data entry can result in inaccuracies, leading to delays and financial discrepancies.

How Kanverse is Changing the Game with its 24/7 AI Agent

Kanverse’s AI-powered AP Invoice Automation Agent eliminates the pain points of traditional invoice processing by transforming manual workflows. Here’s how Kanverse is revolutionizing AP invoice automation:

Manually processing submissions and need for Packages

1.   AI Agent as a team member: 

   Kanverse AI Agent is designed to work alongside human AP Specialists as part of the team. They work under human oversight and take care of repetitive and manual work. They collaborate with the human AP specialists, Requestors, Procurement, and logistics personnel as needed and process PO and non-PO-based invoices.
   
   An AI Agent intelligently extracts data from invoices with an incredible accuracy of 99.5% or higher. Whether the invoice is a PDF, Excel, Word, or image, the AI agents extract all the terms and automatically validate it against pre-configured business rules, such as matching it to purchase orders (2-way, 3-way matches) and using AI/ML checks for fraudulent invoices (e.g., duplicate invoices, anomalous and made-up invoices, etc.). AI Agents also ensure adherence to tax compliance regulations and internal audit standards.

   This ensures accuracy and reduces the risk of processing fraudulent or incorrect invoices. As a result, businesses can quickly meet compliance requirements and prevent costly errors before they occur.

2.   End-to-end automation with 24/7 efficiency: 

   Kanverse AI Agent takes care of the entire AP invoice lifecycle—from invoice receipt at an input channel (email Inbox, portal, shared drive, etc.) and after all the necessary checks and validation to routing it for approvals, sending it to ERP for payment, and maintaining the invoice documents and data for audit purposes. The AI agents can seamlessly integrate with your existing enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and undertake the process tirelessly 24/7 and in real time.

3.   AI Agent with Human Oversight: 

   Kanverse AI Agent doesn’t just automate your AP workflows; it provides real-time analytics and reporting features that give your finance team complete visibility into the invoice processing pipeline. With detailed dashboards and insightful reports, businesses can track KPIs such as average approval time, the volume of invoices processed, and payment statuses.
   This level of transparency allows decision-makers to identify bottlenecks, optimize processes, and improve cash flow management.

4.   AI Agent ready to Scale with your Business: 

   One of the greatest advantages of Kanverse AI Agent is its scalability. Whether your business processes hundreds or thousands of invoices each month, Kanverse effortlessly handles large volumes of data without compromising on performance. As your business grows, so does your ability to scale your AP invoice processing, freeing up resources to focus on expansion and strategic initiatives.
