It's a regular Friday, and you're getting ready for some happy hour with your colleagues until you realize that it's the end of the month. It's that time of the month again when you need to sit down and process invoicing. And, just like that your Happy Hour became Zero Hour.
If you can relate to the above story, I have 5 words for you -- AI invoice processing with Parseur.
The agony of manual invoicing
There is no fun in juggling paper invoices, lost emails, and mistyped numbers. Ask any accountant and they will tell you how challenging it is to capture invoice data manually. The end of the month is always a stressful and time-consuming period.
Accountants spend days-long marathons diving deep into billing cycles and invoice statuses for each customer while encountering minor (and major) errors.
You may be a number wizard, but errors are inevitable
We are all humans, and mistakes happen, even if we've been super careful. Unfortunately, errors are costly to the company and the client as well. One small mistake can cost billions of dollars to rectify.
If your company works with large amounts of data, you can expect anywhere from 0.5 to 4 errors per 10,000 entries with double entries.

Traditional OCR has its limitations
Regular OCR converts data into plain text only and cannot process invoices in different formats or layouts. Most invoices contain tabular data and it may not be able to read that data accurately.

In my case, I'm using it in combination with Zapier, mostly to parse mails and invoices. Besides a great piece of software to use, what I always want to get from a SaaS-Tool is an even more awesome support and that's exactly what you get from Sylvestre and his team.
