Invoice processing and reconciliation automation for finance teams in the UAE.

The close stops being a week of assembly, and every break arrives with the reason it broke.

The bank statement, the supplier statement, the ledger and the payment file are read as they arrive and matched against each other, in whatever shape each system exports them.

What agrees is closed without anyone opening it, and what does not comes to a person as a break with both records beside it and the reason they differ.

The work

Four jobs a finance function repeats every month.

The reconciliation
Only the breaks reach a person, and each one arrives explained.
Two records that are meant to say the same thing rarely do, and the difference is found by someone holding both of them open. They are matched as they arrive instead, in whatever shape each system exports them, and what agrees is closed. What disagrees comes through as a break with the two records beside it and the reason they differ, so the question in front of a person is a decision rather than a search.
The payment run
Assembled complete, and held for the signature.
The supplier invoice is matched against the purchase order and what was actually received, the bank details are checked against what is on file for that supplier, and anything already paid is caught before the file is built. The run is presented whole, and nothing leaves the account until the person whose name is on it releases it.
The cash position
Current when you open it, across the accounts and the currencies you hold.
Balances, cleared and uncleared items, the receivables due this week and the run waiting for approval sit in one position that rebuilds itself as the records arrive. When a number moves for a reason nobody expected, it is flagged with the transactions that moved it.
The close
Shorter, because the assembly already happened.
The accruals, the intercompany, the supplier statements and the schedules that get rebuilt every month are prepared through the month instead of in the days after it ends. What reaches the person who signs the close is the set of items that need a view taken, with everything supporting them already gathered.
The alternative
Accounting software ends at the ledger.
It holds the record, and the matching still happens in someone’s head. Runbook arrives knowing your business, because writing down how you actually settle a break is where we start.
What you own
You own it. No seat bill.
It runs in your cloud account. If you stop paying us, it keeps running. What stops is us watching it, fixing it and extending it.

What we get asked

Questions a finance manager asks.

Most of a close is assembly rather than judgment: the schedules rebuilt, the statements chased, the intercompany agreed. That work moves into the month and runs continuously as the records arrive, so the period after month end is spent on the items that need a decision. How much of the week comes back depends on how many systems the close touches and what condition the data is in.
The judgment stays with your accountant, because the call on a break is theirs and it should be. What a system takes is the matching underneath it: reading both records as they arrive, applying the rule your accountant already applies, and closing everything that agrees. What reaches them is the set of items that genuinely need a view taken, each with the two records and the reason they differ.
No. It assembles the run: the invoice matched against the purchase order and what was received, the bank details checked against what is on file for that supplier, anything already paid caught before the file is built. Releasing it is a person, always, and the record of who approved what sits with the run.
No, and it is usually the reason the work exists in the first place. The data layer comes first, and its job is to read each system in the shape it actually exports, including the spreadsheet sitting beside the accounting system that holds the part it cannot. That layer belongs to you, and every workflow built after it is faster because it already exists.
The scope, the fee and the finish date are agreed with you in writing before anything starts. We do not publish a length, because it follows the size of the operation, how many systems the work touches and what condition the data is in.
You do. The code, the credentials and the documentation sit in your accounts and under your name from the day we start. It runs in your cloud account, and if you stop paying us it keeps running.
Nothing. It is thirty minutes, and you leave with a one-page sketch of the job you brought: the steps as they run today, where the line would sit, and what we would measure.
It stops, and a named person decides. Every agent has a line written into it, agreed with you during the audit, that it will not cross alone: a break above the threshold you set, a supplier whose bank details changed, a match it can make but cannot defend. When it stops, the item arrives with the records, the rule it applied and the reason it stopped, so the person deciding starts from the evidence rather than from a search.
