Yooz AI: 2 Days Saved on Accounts Payable

Accounts payable remains one of the most time-consuming areas in finance, yet it is also one of the most critical for maintaining strong cash flow, compliance, and supplier relationships. Manual invoice handling creates inefficiencies, errors, and bottlenecks that limit finance teams from focusing on strategic work. The webinar “Yooz AI: 2 Days Saved on Accounts Payable” explored how AI-driven automation can transform AP processes into a streamlined, value-adding function.

Hosted by Kevin Appleby, COO of GrowCFO, the session featured insights from Celine Duplessis, Product Evangelist at Yooz, and Laura Johnson, Head of Finance at The Climbing Hangar. The discussion combined technology expertise with real-world application, showing how AI automation enabled The Climbing Hangar to double its estate size without increasing finance headcount, while saving two days each month on AP processes.

This session demonstrated the tangible benefits of AI in accounts payable—from enhanced accuracy and fraud detection to faster processing and improved employee experience—proving that automation is no longer a future consideration but a present necessity for competitive finance teams.

Highlights:

  • Yooz AI enables two days saved each month in accounts payable through automation.
  • The Climbing Hangar scaled from 6 to 11 sites without adding finance staff, thanks to AP automation.
  • Increased productivity and employee engagement by reducing manual invoice entry and approvals.
  • Fraud detection and audit trail built into workflows ensure stronger compliance and controls.
  • Seamless integration with 250+ ERPs, including Sage Intacct, SAP, Oracle, Xero, and QuickBooks.
