ServicesAP automation

An AI agent that enters your vendor bills. A person approves each one.

The agent reads each vendor bill from email, matches it to the purchase order, and flags a price difference before anyone pays. A person approves it, and it lands in your accounting software, ready to post. lumic builds it on site and keeps it working.

  2. It matches the purchase order.

    It matches the bill to the purchase order and flags a price difference before anyone pays.

  3. A person approves it.

01

AP invoice agent

Every vendor bill was typed in twice, into two systems, about 30 a day. The agent went live about six weeks after the on-site day. It reads each bill from email, matches it to the purchase order, and enters it in both systems once the clerk approves.

Approval and access

Nothing posts without you.

  • It makes the entry itself.

    The agent enters the work in your systems, the same records a clerk would key. A person approves it, and nobody retypes it.

  • Nothing posts without you.

    The agent prepares each entry. A person on your team checks it and approves it, and the final post stays in your hands. Dashboards only read.

  • It touches only its job.

    lumic gives each agent access to the screens and records its job needs, and nothing more. Every action it takes is logged.

  • It runs where it fits.

    Each agent works on its own dedicated computer, wherever fits your business, under its own login, inside the systems you already run. To read a document, it uses a cloud AI model.

Questions

Before you book.

    A person on your team. The agent makes the entry, and a person checks it and approves it before anything posts. The final post stays in your hands.
