From invoice to approved and reconciled, without another spreadsheet.

What changes in the first week

Not a promise about culture. Four practical things that stop happening.

No more typing

Fifty invoices read in the background

Upload the batch, walk away, and come back to drafts with supplier, lines, VAT and totals already filled in.

No more chasing

Approvals go to the right desk on their own

Department approvers and amount thresholds decide the chain, and everyone can see whose turn it is.

No more surprises

Budgets move when money is committed

An approved order counts straight away, so a line going over shows up mid-month rather than in a board pack.

No more guessing

Every decision has a name on it

Who submitted, who approved, who changed the budget, all recorded and readable under Activity log.

How Spendvora runs spend

Not another dashboard full of empty charts. A working loop: capture bills, approve what matters, commit budget, and keep finance systems in step.

1 · Capture

Drop a stack of invoices. AI does the reading.

Upload PDFs or photos in bulk. Spendvora queues them, extracts supplier, line items, VAT and totals in the background, then pings you when each one is ready to review. No typing totals from a phone photo.

  • Up to 50 files in one go
  • Works while you stay in the app
  • Review screen next to the original file

2 · Control

Approvals and purchase orders in one flow.

Send invoices or POs through department managers and threshold rules. Multi-step chains keep big spend honest. Buyers get a clear path from bill to purchase order, then receiving, payments and invoice matching against the original order.

  • Rules by amount and department
  • Email PDF orders to suppliers
  • Receive goods and match invoices later

3 · Budgets

Live overhead lines that actually bite.

Map every line to a real budget code with monthly allocations. Committed POs and approved invoices update the picture as they happen, so overruns show up mid-month, not in next quarter's board pack.

  • Monthly allocations per line
  • Committed vs spent, side by side
  • Warnings before the line is blown

4 · Connect

Push drafts to Xero when you are ready.

Connect once, then send draft bills and purchase orders into Xero. Import suppliers, expense accounts, tax rates and tracking categories so Spendvora stays aligned with the ledger your accountant already trusts.

  • Draft bills and POs, not silent posts
  • Import catalogues from Xero
  • Merge local duplicates into linked records

The path from pile of paper to clean books

The loop your team runs every time money is about to leave the business.

One loop, every time money leaves the building Each step leaves a record, so you can always see who did what and when. 1 Upload A batch of PDFs or photos 2 Extract AI reads lines, supplier, VAT 3 Review A person checks it 4 Approve Your rules decide who signs 5 Order or pay Raise, receive, record 6 Watch budget Committed and spent, live Push a draft bill or purchase order into Xero at the end, or keep it all in Spendvora.

Follow one order through the whole loop

One tool, six working parts

Each has its own page with the real screens and the honest limits.

Two ways to run your workflow

Choose the mode that fits your team. You can switch later without losing data.

Full procurement

Purchase orders, receiving, recurring schedules, invoice matching and budgets. Ideal when buyers raise POs before spend happens.

Bills only

Focus on invoice capture, review and budget control. Ideal when your team works from supplier bills rather than formal POs.

Also in the box

The quieter features that keep a finance team honest day after day.

Recurring orders

Standing spend on a schedule. Templates generate purchase orders so rent, retainers and subscriptions do not fall through the cracks.

Reports that answer questions

Spend versus budget, open commitments, supplier and item analysis, plus AI usage. See where money went without exporting to Excel first.

Roles and audit trail

Owner, manager, buyer and viewer roles, per-user visibility, a full activity log, and private file links that expire.

Your OpenAI key or ours

Use the platform key within fair-use caps, or add your own key in Settings. Either way, scans stay metered and visible.

Where the AI stops and your team starts

We would rather be straight with you than oversell the clever bit. AI extraction is a very good typing shortcut, not an oracle. It reads most documents correctly and occasionally gets a date or a line split wrong.

So Spendvora never treats a scan as final. Everything arrives as a draft with the original file beside it, uncertain fields flagged and a warning when totals do not reconcile. A person confirms before anything is approved, ordered or paid, and their name goes on the record.

Read the awkward questions

Also worth knowing

  • Spendvora is a tool, not your accountant. It does not file your VAT.
  • It records payments. It never moves money.
  • Xero receives drafts, so your accountant still reviews and posts.
  • Your data sits in its own tenant, and you can take a copy when you leave.

The detail is in the terms, privacy policy and security page.
