Automate Payments in One Platform

Strengthen Cash Flow Using AI for Payments

VendorPay’s AI ensures spend is fully approved, and payments are timed to keep your cash flow balanced and predictable, cutting payment processing time from up to 10 minutes per payment down to around 1 minute.

Key challenges with vendor payments

Manual payments are risky and time-consuming, leading to missed or unrecorded payments and increasing the risk of fraud. On average, Ottimate customers uncover $1.4M in duplicate invoice value per year.

Late or missed payments

Delays in AP erode vendor confidence and create unnecessary financial risk.

Unrecorded payments

Unrecorded payments lead to duplicates and errors. VendorPay saves customers $15,500 per year.

Vendor fraud

Without validation, invoice scams can slip through and drain funds.
