What matters most for invoice extraction

When comparing the two, test these with your real invoices:

1. Header fields: vendor name, invoice number, date, PO number
2. Line items: item descriptions, quantities, unit price, tax, totals
3. Exception handling: missing PO, duplicate invoices, mismatched totals
4. Review workflow: how easy is it for AP staff to correct errors?
5. Learning/training: how much setup is needed to reach good accuracy?
6. Integrations: ERP/accounting system compatibility
7. Throughput: speed and reliability at your monthly volume

• Choose Rossum if you’re a larger AP function and want a more mature enterprise solution.
• Choose Nanonets if you want faster implementation, flexibility, and a simpler path to automation.
