## The Problem

Invoices arrive via email, PDF, mail, and vendor portals — Controllers re-key them into NetSuite, chase GL codes and approvers, and still end up with duplicates and late fees.

## What We Build in Expensify

AI pulls bills from every channel, extracts line items, assigns GL codes using Mid-Market Controller patterns, routes approvals, and sends payment files to NetSuite — processing cost per invoice drops from $15 to under $2. Purpose-built for teams running Expensify — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## Expensify Integration Approach

1. **Audit your Expensify configuration.** We map the specific Expensify objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your mid-market controller practice.
2. **Build on the Expensify API or agent.** Integration happens inside Expensify — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Expensify with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
