Close the books before Friday lunch.
AI agents that pay suppliers, chase receivables, check expenses and reconcile every account, using the rules your finance team already follows.
How it works
Every step, from inbox to the general ledger
An invoice lands in the AP inbox. Kestrel reads it, matches it, codes it, routes it for approval, schedules the payment and posts the entry. Your team only sees the ones that need a person.

FAQ
Questions finance leaders ask us
Something else on your mind? A 30-minute walkthrough with our team usually answers it.
Most teams connect their ERP and bank in the first week and run the payables agent in shadow mode in the second. It goes live once you're happy with what it would have done.
NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Xero and QuickBooks Online, plus bank feeds from more than 9,000 institutions. Custom ledgers connect through our API.
It stops and asks. Anything below the confidence threshold you set goes to a named person with the documents, the rule it checked and what it would suggest.
In the US or the EU, your choice. It's encrypted at rest and in transit, and it's never used to train models for other customers.
No. Most customers start with payables or expenses, measure the result for a month and add the next agent from there.
