ClearAP: AI-Powered Exception & Dedupe Workflow

ClearAP is a SaaS add-on that automatically extracts line-item data from any invoice format, flags exceptions and duplicate risks using fuzzy matching and machine learning, and streamlines resolution through a collaborative workflow with vendors. It plugs into your existing ERP to ensure no duplicate payment or unresolved exception stalls your month-end close.

Key Features
  • AI-powered data extraction from any invoice format (PDF, scanned, email) with line-item, PO, tax, and totals validation
  • Duplicate detection using fuzzy matching on invoice numbers, amounts, and vendor details across all submission channels
  • Automated exception handling with role-based queues, vendor collaboration portal, and real-time status tracking
  • Seamless ERP integration with push/pull sync for invoice records, payment statuses, and resolution actions
Target Users: Accounts payable specialists, bookkeepers, and accountants in mid-market to enterprise finance teams processing high volumes of invoices with frequent exceptions or duplicate risks
Revenue Model: SaaS subscription based on monthly invoice volume tiers, with optional setup fees for ERP integration
