Payment Terms Optimization and Fraud Prevention
Billy interprets vendor preferences, invoices, and communications to help your team time payments for maximum benefit – like capturing early payment discounts or maintaining optimal cash flow.

Billy FAQs
Which specific functions does Billy handle from day one?
Billy immediately begins processing invoices from established vendors, matching against existing POs, routing approvals, and flagging obvious duplicates. Within the first few weeks, Billy expands to suggest appropriate coding, multi-level approval workflows, and receipt matching. By month one, Billy’s learning continues to expand, allowing it to manage more and more of the work for your team.
How does Billy adapt to industry-specific requirements?
Billy has processed transactions across diverse industries—construction retainage, manufacturing BOMs, nonprofit grant allocations, multi-entity corporate structures. Rather than operating from industry templates, Billy learns your specific requirements regardless of sector. Unique approval workflows, specialized coding conventions, regulatory compliance needs—Billy adapts to your operational reality through observation and feedback, not preset configurations.
What happens when Billy makes an error?
Can Billy process imperfect or incomplete data?
Billy was designed specifically for real-world data conditions—illegible receipt images, incomplete PO references, inconsistent vendor naming conventions. The system applies contextual reasoning and pattern recognition to interpret ambiguous information, similar to how experienced AP professionals work through data imperfections using organizational knowledge and common sense.
Why doesn't Stampli describe Billy as providing "touchless" AP?
Touchless processing implies complete automation without human oversight—an approach incompatible with effective financial controls. Billy automates all routine, rule-based work while maintaining appropriate human involvement in judgment-based decisions, exception handling, and strategic matters. This balanced approach delivers maximum efficiency without sacrificing the control and accountability that sound financial operations require.
