Basware
Basware sells accounts payable automation and e-invoicing software to large organizations, covering invoice receipt over its e-invoicing network, data capture, coding, matching, approval and archiving, plus purchase-to-pay and fraud controls. Its InvoiceAI products apply machine learning and generative AI across the invoice lifecycle, and customers decide how much the AI may do on its own.
What the AI does
- SmartPDF captures invoice data automatically from PDF invoices
- SmartCoding uses machine learning to suggest coding for non-PO invoices
- InvoiceAI applies AI to PO and non-PO invoice processing, including matching and exception handling
- Generative-AI Q&A and Insights analytics answer questions about invoices and AP performance
- Governed Autonomy lets customers set the AI to advise, act within thresholds, or operate on its own, process by process
