Manual invoice matching consumes hours for small finance teams, yet existing automation requires expensive implementations. A focused AI tool could handle the core matching task affordably.

Develop a simple web app that ingests invoices and POs via email/uploads, uses OCR and LLMs to extract key fields, and flags discrepancies for review.

Charge monthly based on document volume processed.

MVP: Email-to-spreadsheet pipeline with basic field extraction and matching.

Risk: Larger platforms may add this as a feature.
