Pre-Payment Intelligence for enterprise finance teams

Know exactly what you're paying for — before you pay it.

P2P Intel reads the PO, goods receipt, invoice, contract, vendor emails and payment history together, so your team sees what three-way match can't. Every finding cites its source. Every rupee of exposure is calculated by code. Every payment decision stays with your people.

Synthetic demo invoice: fictional companies and amounts. A person makes the final payment decision.

Three-way match checks the numbers. Leakage hides in everything else.

A payment can pass matching and still be wrong. The evidence sits across six documents and three systems, and AP has hours, not days, before the payment run.

  • A price increase the contract doesn't allowThe vendor emailed a new rate. The contract required notice that was never given.
  • A late-delivery penalty nobody deductedThe contract entitles you to it. The invoice is paid in full anyway.
  • The same goods billed again under a new invoice numberThe payment ledger already shows them paid.
  • A bank account changed by email, days before a payment runThe contract requires a signed letter and a call-back. Neither is on file.
  • A quantity the goods receipt or weighbridge doesn't supportBilled in full; received short, beyond the agreed tolerance.

One payment. Six documents. One evidence-backed recommendation.

  1. Gather

    The PO, goods receipt, invoice, contract, vendor emails and payment history behind one payment.

  2. Investigate

    AI reads across all six and applies a procure-to-pay controls checklist: price, quantity, duplicates, bank details, payment terms, penalties, tolerances, renewal caps, tax and discount windows.

  3. Verify

    Our code checks every quoted piece of evidence against the original document, checks the invoice total against the invoice, and calculates the exposure from the itemised findings.

  4. Decide

    You get a recommendation, owner-assigned next steps and a drafted vendor email. A person makes the final decision.

    Approve Approve partial Hold Escalate

Hold means AP can resolve it: a missing goods receipt, a credit note, a corrected invoice. Escalate means it needs authority above AP: suspected fraud, an unverified bank-account change, a contract dispute or a material policy breach.

AI reasons. Code verifies. People decide.

Every finding must quote its source word for word. Before you see it, our code checks that the quote exists in the cited document.

  • Quotes are checked, not trusted. Each one is marked verified or not verified, and opens the source with the line highlighted.
  • Rupees are calculated, not estimated. The exposure and the safe-to-pay amount come from code, using the itemised findings and an invoice total that matches the invoice.
  • Your reviewer judges the conclusion. Verification confirms that the evidence exists. It does not make the reasoning correct, which is why P2P Intel recommends and your team decides.

Laptop price above contract rate

₹1,60,480
ProBook 450 G11 Laptop, 16GB/512GB | 40 | 71,900 ✓ Verified in Invoice INV-NOS-2291
LT-PB450 ProBook 450 G11 Laptop: 68,500 ✓ Verified in Master Supply Agreement
Laptop prices are fixed for the full contract term ⚠ Not verified this wording is not in the cited contract, so the finding is flagged for review

40 × (₹71,900 − ₹68,500) = ₹1,36,000 + 18% GST = ₹1,60,480

Built to sit beside SAP, not inside it.

SAP stays your system of record and keeps doing three-way matching. P2P Intel investigates what matching can't read.

Your SAP system

  • Purchase orders, goods receipts, invoices, payments
  • Three-way match on quantities and amounts
  • The payment run

P2P Intel

  • Contract clauses: rates, caps, penalties, tolerances, notice periods
  • Vendor emails: price changes, bank-detail changes
  • Payment history: duplicates, prior recoveries

The Payment Leakage Diagnostic needs no SAP integration and no access to your SAP system. We work from standard reports your SAP team already runs, plus your contracts. Integration for ongoing use is scoped with your SAP team and implementation partner during an enterprise deployment.

P2P Intel investigates your live payments above an agreed threshold before each payment run.

It runs in shadow mode and never blocks a payment. Your reviewers accept or override each recommendation, and we measure precision, confirmed exposure and review time against criteria agreed in writing on day one.

At the end you receive the full reviewer log, a results report and a fixed-scope plan for ongoing use.

Five vendor cases. The same checklist and the same code.

No vendor-specific rules. Each case is a full set of PO, goods receipt, invoice, contract, emails and payment history.

Questions finance teams ask

Do you need access to our SAP system?

No. For the diagnostic, your SAP team exports standard reports. We never log in to SAP.

Is this an audit?

No. P2P Intel produces evidence-backed findings and recommendations. Decisions, and any audit opinion, stay with your team and your auditors.

What if the AI is wrong?

Every finding shows its source evidence and whether that evidence was verified, and every rupee is calculated by code. In the diagnostic, our team reviews every finding before it reaches you. In the pilot, your reviewers accept or override each recommendation, and we measure how often the system is right.

Which AI models do you use?

Commercial models from OpenAI or Anthropic, accessed through their business APIs. Under those providers' API terms, your data is not used to train their models.

How is our data handled?

Under an NDA and a written data-handling agreement signed before we receive anything. Your data is used only for your engagement and deleted within 30 days of the readout, with written confirmation.

What do we need to provide?

Standard SAP exports for 12 months, contracts for 30 vendors and the vendor-master change log. We send the full checklist after the NDA.

Do you work with ERPs other than SAP?

We currently work with SAP ECC and SAP S/4HANA exports.

What happens after the diagnostic?

If the findings justify it, a 30-day pilot on your live payment runs, then an annual subscription scoped to your entities and payment volume. The pilot fee is credited in full to Year 1.
