AI-enhanced automation

Financial reporting software has been automating routine accounting tasks for years, but Zeni takes things to the next level with the power of AI.

Through machine learning, Zeni improves its accuracy over time. The more it studies your data, the better it gets at identifying vendors, recognizing recurring patterns, and recording financial transactions.

What does that mean for you? Less and less time spent cleaning up the books.

But Zeni’s AI does more than streamline your basic bookkeeping. Unlike legacy platforms, it can also automate a variety of other processes. For example:

1. Optical character recognition (OCR) scans supporting documents into the system
2. Natural language processing (NLP) extracts and processes key document details
3. The Zeni Audit Bot reviews your finances and flags potential compliance issues
4. Predictive analytics forecast cash flows to support proactive cash management

Zeni’s AI-enhanced capabilities result in more efficient workflows across your accounting function, saving time and reducing manual errors.
