Bill Capture & AP Processing for Estate Tax Specialists with SmartVault
Run bill capture & ap processing on autopilot inside SmartVault.
The Problem
Invoices arrive via email, PDF, mail, and vendor portals — Estate Tax Specialists re-key them into Lacerte, chase GL codes and approvers, and still end up with duplicates and late fees.
What We Build in SmartVault
AI pulls bills from every channel, extracts line items, assigns GL codes using Estate & Gift Tax patterns, routes approvals, and sends payment files to Lacerte — processing cost per invoice drops from $15 to under $2. Purpose-built for teams running SmartVault — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
