AI Invoice Capture, from Any Source.

AI collects invoices the moment they arrive, from email, shared folders, cloud storage, or your ERP. Reads scanned, handwritten, and non-standard formats that OCR tools reject.

  • Flags duplicates at the point of capture
  • Learns each supplier's format over time
  • Hundreds of invoice lines extracted and structured in seconds

Common Questions

What is an AI AP automation software?
AI AP automation software uses artificial intelligence to manage the complete accounts payable process. This includes capturing supplier invoices from any source, validating data against business rules, matching purchase orders, routing approvals, posting to your ERP, and reconciling payments against bank feeds. Modern AI AP automation software like LayerNext achieves 95 percent or higher task accuracy and eliminates manual data entry entirely.
What is 3-way PO matching in accounts payable?
Three-way PO matching in accounts payable compares three documents: the supplier invoice, the purchase order, and the goods receipt. The process verifies that the quantity ordered, quantity received, and quantity billed all agree before a payment is approved. LayerNext performs this automatically for every invoice, flagging mismatches as named tasks and preventing overpayments before they reach your ERP.
Does LayerNext work with legacy ERPs that have no API?
Yes. LayerNext works with both modern cloud ERPs via API and legacy desktop ERPs with no API at all, including Epicor Eagle, QuickBooks Desktop, Sage, and Microsoft Dynamics. The computer-use agent logs into the ERP through its own user interface, reads and enters data exactly as a human operator would, and completes the full workflow. If a human can operate it, LayerNext can automate it.
How long does AP automation software deployment take?
LayerNext deploys in weeks, not months. Every engagement is scoped to your specific ERP, supplier base, and approval structure. The process starts with a live proof on your actual messiest supplier invoices, not a generic demo. You see real extraction, validation, and matching results before a contract is signed.
What accounting platforms does LayerNext AP automation support?
LayerNext supports QuickBooks Online and Desktop, Epicor including Eagle, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Sage, NetSuite, SAP, Xero, FreshBooks, and Excel-based or custom ERP workflows. Cloud systems integrate via API. Legacy and desktop systems are automated through the computer-use agent with no API required and no infrastructure changes needed.
How does the human-in-the-loop approval model work?
LayerNext only requests human input when it encounters a genuine exception. A tax discrepancy, a PO mismatch above tolerance, or an invoice requiring CFO approval each create a named task in the portal with the invoice number, supplier name, and issue type. Your team resolves only those flagged items. When all tasks are marked done, no human input is needed. The rest of your AP runs without anyone touching it.
