Bill Capture & AP Processing for Sales Tax Analysts with Sovos
Run bill capture & ap processing on autopilot inside Sovos.
The Problem
Invoices arrive via email, PDF, mail, and vendor portals — Sales Tax Analysts re-key them into Avalara, chase GL codes and approvers, and still end up with duplicates and late fees.
What We Build in Sovos
AI pulls bills from every channel, extracts line items, assigns GL codes using Indirect Tax patterns, routes approvals, and sends payment files to Avalara — processing cost per invoice drops from $15 to under $2. Purpose-built for teams running Sovos — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
