Where it breaks

Violations slip through. Duplicates go unnoticed.

Manual expense review is tedious. Policy violations discovered at audit, not submission. Duplicate submissions and potential fraud difficult to catch.

The fix

We validate every expense against policy in real-time and flag anomalies before submission.

Questions

Before you ask.

What policy rules can it enforce?

Spending limits by category, receipt requirements, pre-approval rules, merchant restrictions, per diem rates, travel class restrictions - any policy you define.

How does it detect fraud?

Duplicate receipt detection (same amount, date, vendor), split transactions (circumventing limits), unusual spending patterns, and cross-employee correlation anomalies.

What results should we expect?

Finance teams typically save 10-15 hours/week on manual review (500-750 hours/year = $40K-$60K at manager rates). Plus fraud/duplicate prevention saves 0.5-1.5% of annual expense spend. For $5M expense spend, that's $25K-$75K/year.

How long does implementation take?

4-6 weeks from kickoff to production. Week 1-2: Expense system integration (Concur/Expensify/Ramp). Week 3-4: Policy rules configuration. Week 5-6: Testing and deployment.

Do we own the system?

Yes. You own the system. We build the infrastructure in your stack, hand over the keys, and you own it forever - no vendor lock-in.
