3-Way Matching Is Your
Biggest Bottleneck.
Manual matching isn’t just slow, it’s expensive. Here’s what’s leaking your margin:

Your Projected Savings
Hallucination-Free
Automation.
The Kognitos platform is built on one principle: English as Code™. The same engine that automates 3-way matching powers accounts receivable, procurement, and sales order entry. If the system is unsure, it asks a human in plain English. No guessing. No errors.
Auto-matches each invoice line against POs and goods receipts using business rules you write in English, not pixel coordinates or SQL queries.
invoice = bot.read_screen(region=(120,340,580,380))
po = erp.query("SELECT po_num FROM orders WHERE...")
if abs(float(invoice['total']) - float(po['amount'])) > 0.02:
bot.click(x=445, y=612) # "Exception" button
bot.type_text(exception_queue, invoice['id'])
send_email(ap_team, f"Mismatch on {invoice['id']}")
# TODO: breaks when SAP updates UI layout
“Match each invoice line to the PO and goods receipt.
If the shipping fee is >10% of the PO total, ask Sarah for approval.
Post the matched record back to NetSuite.”
Every step logged in plain English, full audit trail, no black-box decisions. This is what your auditor sees:
The Real Cost of
“Automation”
RPA isn’t cheap when you factor in the $150K+ developers needed to fix broken bots.
| Manual | Legacy RPA | Kognitos | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to Live | N/A | 3–6 months | 2 weeks |
| Build Team | AP clerks | 2–4 developers ($80–150K/yr each) | Your AP team |
| Upfront Cost | $0 (but you’re stuck) | $150K–$400K | < $30K |
| Blended Cost/Invoice | $15–$25 | $10–$16 | $3 |
| Maintenance | High labor cost | $10K–$30K+/yr (bot fixing) | Self-healing |
| Flexibility | Fluid (manual) | Brittle (breaks on UI changes) | Dynamic (English commands) |
Best fit: organizations processing 5K+ invoices/mo with standard ERP integrations (SAP, Oracle, NetSuite). For complex global payments across 50+ countries and currencies, a dedicated global payments platform may complement Kognitos. That said, 3-way matching is just the starting point, the platform extends to full finance automation, procurement, and sales order processing.

Don’t take our word for it.
Take theirs.
Deployed Kognitos 3-way match automation and processed their first automated invoice within two weeks. Now handling 12K+ invoices/month with zero dedicated AP developers.
Started with AP invoice matching through Kognitos + Epicor. Their CFO called it “fruit on the ground” for quick value.
Now expanding to sales order entry
Proved value on AP in weeks, then unlocked new automations on the same platform. That’s the Kognitos pattern.
Kognitos reduces blended invoice processing cost from $15–$25 down to $3 per invoice. An 80% reduction with full audit trails and zero developer involvement.
Across the Kognitos Platform
92,000 hours saved annually across finance automation, AP, AR, reconciliation, and close. Invoice matching was the starting point; the platform delivered the full impact. That’s 44 FTEs redirected from manual work to strategic analysis.
Every Kognitos deployment follows the same pattern: prove value fast on one process, then expand across the platform. JBI started with AP invoice matching and is now automating sales order entry. The Fortune 50 CPG company began with invoice processing and scaled to 92,000 hours saved across all of finance. 3-way matching is your fastest path to ROI, and the on-ramp to full finance automation.

Common questions,
straight answers.
We process over 10,000 invoices a month — can Kognitos handle that volume without slowing down or requiring additional headcount?
Yes. The Kognitos enterprise platform scales horizontally to process tens of thousands of complex invoices monthly with zero performance degradation. By replacing manual workflows with an intelligent digital workforce, accounts payable teams can handle massive volume spikes during peak cycles without adding headcount, significantly driving down the total cost per invoice.
Our invoices come in different formats from hundreds of vendors. Do we need to build templates for each one, or does the AI adapt automatically?
Kognitos requires absolutely zero templates or model pre-training. Powered by advanced computer vision and generative AI, our platform dynamically reads and interprets unstructured data from any vendor layout, extracting line items, tax IDs, and totals natively on arrival.
What happens when an invoice doesn’t match the PO — does it auto-escalate, or does it sit in a queue? Who controls the escalation rules?
Mismatches trigger conversational exception handling rather than sitting in a dead queue. The platform automatically flags variances exceeding your policy threshold and routes them to your AP team via Slack or Microsoft Teams. Process owners control these escalation rules using plain English instructions.
We’re already on SAP/Oracle/NetSuite — how long does it actually take to go live, and do we need IT involved?
Traditional integrations take months, but Kognitos can go live with a risk-free 3-way match deployment within 14 to 30 days. Because our platform is non-invasive and interacts with software UIs alongside native integration connectors, it requires minimal IT overhead or infrastructure changes.
How does Kognitos give us an audit trail auditors can follow — can we show exactly why an invoice was approved or flagged?
Kognitos generates a comprehensive, chronological, plain-English execution log for every single transaction. Unlike black-box RPA bots or probabilistic AI models, every extraction, cross-reference check against the purchase order, and approval step is clearly documented to satisfy strict Big 4 compliance audits.
We already have an ERP.
ERPs are great at storage, but terrible at logic. Kognitos acts as the “brain” that feeds your ERP clean, matched data — handling partial deliveries, shipping discrepancies, and exceptions that usually require a human.
How do you prevent AI “hallucinations”?
We don’t let the AI “guess” financial values. Our patented runtime only executes logic defined in English. If a rule doesn’t exist, it stops and asks you. Every decision is logged with a full audit trail.
We tried RPA and it was a nightmare.
RPA relies on “bots” that break when a UI changes or a PDF layout shifts. Kognitos uses English-as-Code — it understands the data, not pixel locations. If a vendor changes their invoice format tomorrow, Kognitos asks you to confirm the change, then handles it forever. No developer, no ticket.
What about security and compliance?
SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and GDPR compliant. Data encrypted in transit and at rest, with full PII masking. Native connectors for SAP, Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Epicor, and Sage.
This sounds too good to be true.
Fair. That’s why we offer a free pilot. Pick your hardest invoice type — partial deliveries, multi-format vendors, whatever keeps your team up at night — and let Kognitos prove it in your environment. 1,000 invoices, 30 days, $0.
