Validate the PDF and malware-scan it before extraction or review.
Human invoice exception review
Human invoice exception review: a safer AP workflow
A practical workflow for extracting invoice facts, flagging deterministic exceptions and requiring a reviewer to inspect the exact source PDF.
Best fit
Small finance teams and bookkeeping/accounting service firms receiving recurring PDF invoices.
What the focused offer actually does
Extract invoice facts, flag deterministic exceptions and require a reviewer to compare them with the exact source PDF before one explicit decision.
Current commercial scope: from US$500
Practical workflow
Four checks before you add more software.
The useful unit is a bounded operating workflow: explicit input, evidence, human judgement where needed, and a visible handoff.
Treat extracted fields as claims to verify against the exact source document, not ground truth.
Use deterministic rules to focus attention, while keeping clean extraction in a review-required state.
Record one explicit reviewer decision and prevent silent decision overwrites.
Boundary
Do not turn a useful check into an unsupported claim.
Clean extraction remains ready_for_review, never automatic approval
No autonomous payment, accounting/tax/legal advice or fraud assurance
Custom extractor templates are trusted operator configuration only
Use the guide, then pick the next useful artifact.
