Bill Capture & AP Processing for E-commerce Bookkeepers with Shopify
Run bill capture & ap processing on autopilot inside Shopify.
The Problem
Invoices arrive via email, PDF, mail, and vendor portals — E-commerce Bookkeepers re-key them into QuickBooks Online, chase GL codes and approvers, and still end up with duplicates and late fees.
What We Build in Shopify
AI pulls bills from every channel, extracts line items, assigns GL codes using E-commerce Bookkeeping patterns, routes approvals, and sends payment files to QuickBooks Online — processing cost per invoice drops from $15 to under $2. Purpose-built for teams running Shopify — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
Shopify Integration Approach
Audit your Shopify configuration
We map the specific Shopify objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your e-commerce bookkeeping practice.
Build on the Shopify API or agent
Integration happens inside Shopify — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
Human-in-the-loop handoff
Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Shopify with enough context to act — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
Frequently asked

Yes — we build directly on Shopify's API or agent integration. Your data stays in Shopify, your e-commerce bookkeepers keep the same login and UI, and there's no parallel system for the team to learn.
What Shopify configuration do we need before deployment?+
We work with your existing Shopify setup. During discovery we map the specific objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation touches — no rip-and-replace required for e-commerce bookkeeping teams.
Can Shopify handle bill capture & ap processing on its own?+
Shopify handles configuration; AI handles judgment. Native Shopify workflows route deterministic tasks; our automation layer adds the AI judgment Shopify doesn't ship out of the box — document classification, exception triage, drafting.
